Some of the best Windows laptops deals happen during Prime Day
With the laptop space crowded with good devices, companies often try to stand out with good deals. With more people working from home and studying from home than ever, you can bet that laptop makers will want to get their devices into people's hands.
Last year, we saw deals from Microsoft, LG, Acer, ASUS, and more. With such a long list of manufacturers jumping in on the Prime Day deals, there are laptops of every shape and size on sale. Whether you want a slim 2-in-1, a beefy gaming laptop, or an Ultrabook to help you get work done, there will be a Prime Day deal for you.
Look out for ways to upgrade your current Windows laptop
If you already have a laptop, and you prefer to tinker with it by upgrading its internals, you'll want to keep an eye out for the best Prime Day deals on PC parts. Processors, graphics cards, RAM, and storage all frequently go on sale on Prime Day. It's a great time to pick up a part to speed up your laptop or replace a component that's showing its age.
Should you wait until Black Friday?
Windows laptops are on sale frequently, but sales don't always last, and the same sale might not pop up again. If you find a deal that you think is worth it on Prime Day, it's probably best to grab it rather than hoping for a better deal on Black Friday or Cyber Monday.
