If you’re looking for a solid budget laptop that doesn’t break the bank, the Acer Aspire 5 is a good place to start. We gave it an «Excellent» rating in our review for its long battery life, capable performance, and comfortable keyboard and touchpad that felt good after many hours of use. With a narrow-bezel 15.6-inch FHD IPS touch display, it’s easy on the eyes and lightweight, and an ergonomic hinge lets you position the keys and the typing surface to your liking. Connectivity supports dual-stream Wi-Fi in the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands, as well as Bluetooth 5.1 and above. Right now, Amazon has a Prime Day discount of a hundred bucks.Apple MacBook Deals
There’s no laptop experience quite like a MacBook, and we love the latest iteration of the MacBook Air. In our review, we gave this portable an Editors’ Choice award for how it combined boosted performance over the last generation of Apple ultraportables with a lower sticker price. Throw in a $150 Prime Day discount, and you’ve got an incredible deal. Apple’s M4 processor is extremely zippy, letting you run high-end creative apps with ease. It’s also the first MacBook Air to support Apple’s Neural Intelligence AI features. The screen is gorgeous, the speakers are solid, the keyboard feels good—this one’s a winner no matter how you slice it.
The last-generation, larger-screen MacBook Air is getting an even deeper price drop, and 24% off of retail is the lowest we’ve ever seen this fantastic ultralight laptop. We put the 15-inch 2024 MacBook Air through its paces in our review, raving about its major performance improvements, its support for dual external displays, and its competitive price. This is a potent big-screen portable for creatives, with a juicy 24GB of system memory and a gorgeous Liquid Retina display that’s bright and colorful.
