Cyber Monday 2023 is here, and you can find plenty of deals on pretty much everything that money can buy. On the tech side of things, that includes many types of popular devices that we use frequently on a daily basis, such as smartphones, tablets, desktop PCs, and, of course, laptops.
Indeed, laptops are often some of the biggest hot ticket items on sale during the Cyber Monday season, and some of the best ones to look for are convertible 2-in-1s. Thanks to their touchscreens and either 360-degree hinges or detachable keyboards, these machines can be used both as a laptop and as a tablet. As a result, they're some of the most versatile devices on the market — and that makes them very desirable.

Cyber Monday 2023: The best 2-in-1 laptop deals
When does Black Friday 2023 end?
• Convertible 2-in-1 laptops
• Unbeatable Xbox bundles
• Discounted Dell laptops
• Razer gaming accessories

• 4K and ultrawide monitors
• The best gaming laptops
Black Friday is officially slated to kick off on Nov. 24, 2023, as it always falls on the last Friday of the month and the day just after Thanksgiving. However, many Black Friday deals often go live up to a few days before then, with some discounts — such as the ones above — even available now.
Something to keep in mind, though, is that current deals may get even sweeter once Black Friday officially begins. For that reason, it may be best to wait until the sales event actually rolls around before you pull the trigger on anything, though particularly hot items may go out of stock before it does.
If you do intend to buy, you should keep an eye out for price drop guarantee offers while shopping around. If your purchase is backed by one of these, retailers will pay the difference back to you if a sale on an item improves after you buy it during this pre-Black Friday period.
When does Cyber Monday 2023 start?
Cyber Monday comes directly after the weekend of Black Friday, which means it's scheduled to begin on Nov. 27, 2023. As the name suggests, the event is generally centered around digital storefronts only, whereas Black Friday deals are widely available both online and in-person. It's common to see Black Friday discounts remain active through Cyber Monday, and special Cyber Monday-exclusive deals may become available until the following Tuesday, too. When Black Friday transitions over to Cyber Monday, we'll be sure to update this article with the latest bargains.
Choosing the best 2-in-1 laptop for you
While Cyber Monday brings a huge number of different 2-in-1 convertible deals, lots of them aren't worth your time. This is because many of the discounted laptops on offer are older, obsolete models fitted with outdated components. Depending on their age, these may still perform well enough, but in most cases, you can find something newer and better for a very similar price. Generally, I'd recommend devices with 11th Gen Intel or AMD Ryzen 5000 CPUs at least, and ideally ones that have processors from newer generations such as Intel's 13th Gen, Raptor Lake.
It's also important that you have capable internal hardware as well, and enough of it, too. Specifically, I'd make sure a convertible has at least 8GB of DDR4 or DDR5 RAM and 256GB of SSD storage before buying, and preferably more; otherwise, you'll likely experience choppy performance and will run out of file space constantly. I'd also steer clear of any CPU below a Core i3 (Intel) or Ryzen 3 (AMD), such as Intel's N-Series, though these are fine if you're getting a Chromebook. This is because ChromeOS is considerably lighter than Windows 11 and uses fewer system resources.
Don't forget about a good display, either — especially since the touchscreen is one of the most biggest reasons why folks want a 2-in-1 in the first place. Try and get something with close to a peak brightness of 300 nits or more; anything lower, and it'll be difficult to use the device in sunlight. Also, try look for screens with a color gamut of at least 100% sRGB (a high percentage of DCI-P3 is even better), though if you're on a narrow budget, don't shy away from 45% NTSC. Resolution comes down to personal preference; FHD (1920x1080) panels maximize battery life, while 4K UHD (3840x2160) ones have the sharpest picture. QHD (2440x1440) falls in the middle, giving you a balance of both image quality and longevity.
