in this week, with several new and returning offers that are great buys if
you need a new device for work, school, college, or for home use.

I've picked out deals for both the US and the UK, including some super-cheap Chromebooks that will just get the job done, mid-range laptops that offer
good levels of performance for the price, and high-end powerhouses for more demanding tasks. There should be something below that suits both your budget and needs.

For example, in the US, I think it will be hard to beat this Dell XPS 13 for $599 (was $899.99) when you apply the student discount. Even if you aren't eligible for the extra $100 off, it's still a tempting $699.99, which is a fantastic price for a fast, powerful and stylish machine.

That's just one option, so do have a browse through all of the best laptop deals I've found right now. US laptop deals Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook: was $419 now $189 at Best Buy

Display : 14 inches Processor : MediaTek Kompanio 540 RAM : 4GB Storage : 64GB

This super-cheap Lenovo Chromebook is a very basic device that's best suited to light use and schoolwork, but it's a bargain at this low price from Best Buy. The lean ChromeOS operating system gets more from low-end components,
but it relies on you using more web-based applications such as Google Docs. And while it will struggle with anything beyond basic tasks, this also
ensures exceptional all-day battery life, making it a strong portable option at a very affordable price. Read more Read less View Deal Lenovo Chromebook Plus: was $629 now $399 at Best Buy

This version of the Lenovo Chromebook Plus offers an impressive amount of power for the price. It includes 8GB of RAM and an Intel Core 3 processor, boosting performance, boot times and load times. Storage of 128GB is a bit miserly for the price, but battery life is solid at up to 10 hours on a
single charge. That's more than enough to last a full working day. At a
little under $400, it's a smart buy for school or college, or just as a home laptop for light use and everyday tasks. Read more Read less View Deal Acer Aspire 14: was $599.99 now $519.99 at Amazon

This Acer Aspire 14 is a little old, but it offers good value for money if
you need a capable all-around laptop. An Intel Core Ultra 5, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD are about what you'd expect for this price, giving you enough power to multitask between work and general everyday use. At 14 inches, too, it's a good portable size to take with you to the office, classes, or a
coffee shop. Read more Read less View Deal Dell 15 Laptop: was $999.99 now $549.99 at Dell

If you have a good amount of cash to spend, I'd recommend picking up this older but still very capable Dell 15 Laptop. It offers significant improvements to key components by upgrading to an AMD Ryzen 7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a large 1TB SSD. That'll get you a lot more power and performance for your money, making this a solid all-around device for general use, work, video calls and multitasking, without the threat of significant slowdown.
