The second Amazon Prime Day sales event of the year is here, and once again it offers discounts on MacBooks, Windows laptops, and various PC accessories. Like previous Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, this sale runs for two days and requires a Prime membership to qualify for most discounts. Some sale prices are open to anyone, and competing sales from Best Buy and other retailers often match or beat the discounts on Amazon without requiring a subscription.
If you’re shopping for a laptop and unable to wait for potential bigger sales during Black Friday, this may be a good opportunity to save what you can now. We’ve been perusing the deals across our wide range of October Prime Day coverage, and here are the best ones we’ve found on laptops we’ve either directly tested or feel comfortable recommending.
