Cheap laptop deals of the week

HP 14-inch Intel Celeron 4GB 1TB laptop: Here's a value-packed laptop deal from Argos available in red, white or black. Not only is the price cut for this decent machine with an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB RAM and 1TB hard drive, but you also get a subscription to McAfee Internet Security and a carry case (see image above). All for just £279.99.

Acer Aspire ES laptop: Refurbished laptops are the way to go if you need a quick replacement laptop and this one has some very decent spec for the price indeed with 4GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive, plus a 12-month warranty. Get it now for just £182.99 @ Argos' eBay

Asus ZenBook UX390UA: Aka the ZenBook 3, this exceptional looking machine is something we've been waiting for a discount on for a while. The super thin blue and gold laptop comes with an i5 processor, 8GB RAM and a 512GB SSD and while most retailers are charging between £280 and £1000, you can get it for £799.97 (delivered) at Laptops Direct.

Asus ZenBook UX390UA-GS064T: This is the more powerful version of the ZenBook 3 deal above and comes with a silver and gold paintjob. You're also getting a faster 16GB of RAM and the i& processor instead. Considering Currys is still charging £1299, we think this is worth a look at just £999.97 at Amazon.

Medion Akoya S3409: Medion laptops are usually a lot more expensive than this. The most notable feature of this 13.3-inch laptop is the 256GB solid state drive. Other specs include an i3 processor and 4GB of RAM. Not exactly a powerhouse, but that SSD makes this a snappy choice for basic needs. Get it for just £389.99 @ Tesco.

HP 255 G5: With a price-tag usually sitting above the £300 mark, we're chuffed to see this going for nearly £35 less. Sure, the 4GB of RAM won't set the world on fire, but the 128GB solid state drive balances things out nicely and all for just £269 at ebuyer.

HP Pavilion 14-al106na: Those of you looking for some extra processing power should take a look at this 7th-gen i5 HP model. You're also getting 8GB memory and a 128GB SSD. And, because it's John Lewis, you're getting a two year warranty. All for just £499.95.

Dell Inspiron 13 5000 2-in-1 laptop: This cheap laptop/tablet hybrid deal is a great price for the fantastic Dell Inspiron 13 5000. It includes a Core i3 processor, Windows 10, 4GB RAM, 1TB hard drive, a full HD touchscreen and is down to £499.99 at Dell. 

Acer R11 Intel: This 11.6-inch 2-in-1 convertible has had £40 knocked off its price this week making it one of the cheapest deals on this page. With 4GB of RAM and eight hours of battery, it's a step up from most cheap hybrids. Get it now for just £229 @ Tesco.

Dell Inspiron 15 5000: If the 7000 series is a bit much (see the best prices further down this page), then why not save yourself £200 today on this still very capable model with 8GB RAM and a 1TB HDD. Not bad at all for just £399 at Amazon.

HP 14-an001na: This is super cheap for a 14-inch laptop with Windows 10, 4GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive. Not bad at all for basic computing tasks. We're quite fond of the stylish silver bodywork too. Don't miss this cheap laptop deal and get it for £229 @ Amazon.

HP 14-an010na (8GB): If you need a beefed up version of the laptop deal above then you can get one with doubled specs like 8GB RAM and a 1TB hard drive. Get it for £299 @ Tesco.

Lenovo V110: If a speedier Solid State Drive is one of your must have features on a cheap laptop deal then this could be for you as it's currently £24 cheaper than usual. The V110 comes with a 128GB SSD, 4GB DDR4 memory and an i5 processor for just £379.98 @ ebuyer.

There have been some generous offers lately for this popular Lenovo laptop series. Any choice between the 4GB and 12GB RAM options should run multiple applications at once. Hard drive sizes vary from 256GB SSD to 1TB in regular form. Some options also include dedicated Nvidia GeForce GTX 940MX graphics.

One of the cheapest brand new 2-in-1 laptops we've seen in a while and an ideal entry point to casual users wanting to try out the world of these higher function tablet/laptop hybrids. Specs include 2GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a 10-inch 1080p screen, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 and an Intel Atom processor.

There's some hefty grunt under the shell of this HP 250 G4 and there are some great prices this week. The Intel Pentium processor and 4GB/8GB of RAM mean this laptop will whip through pretty much any day-to-day activity you can throw at it without the juddering performance of cheaper laptops. Hell, it'll even have a decent crack at playing a few of the less demanding games out there.

Asus3

From afar, this laptop might be mistaken for a MacBook Pro which tells you a lot about its level of quality. Don't expect a full metal chassis at this price, but this is probably one of the best looking plastic bodies in its category. There are plenty of ports (old and new), 4GB of RAM and a massive 1TB hard drive. The cheapest models have a respectable i3 processor, but you can get the more powerful i5 versions for not much more if you need that extra kick. Asus saw it fit to include a DVD writer as well as a 15.6-inch full HD screen. Despite this large display and the presence of a numeric keypad, it's just a tad thicker and heavier than an Ultrabook.

This is the newer version of the Asus Transformer Mini series. This upgrade includes a fingerprint sensor and double the RAM at 4GB for speedier performance. For your money, this is one of the most impressive two-in-one transformer models out there.

The best deals on our favourite laptops

We've reviewed loads of laptops over the years: we've seen the good ones, the great ones and the ones to avoid. Sometimes the best laptops pop up online at some truly deal-tastic prices. So in this section, we list the very best laptops out there and the best deals on each one.

Best laptops

The Dell XPS 13 is, bar none, the best laptop you can buy today. It features a revolutionary design that's astonishingly thin and light. Fitting a 13.3-inch screen into such a small frame means Dell has created a nearly borderless Infinity display. It's a powerful and long lasting machine even by today's Ultrabook standards. The XPS 13 comes outfitted with Intel's latest Skylake processors plus lighting, quick storage and memory, all while coming in at a very affordable starting price. For these reasons, it easily takes the top slot as the best Ultrabook, the best Windows laptop and the best overall laptop.

Looking for a quality gaming laptop but want to keep things under that unappealing £1000 mark? Then Dell has you covered with the Inspiron 15 Gaming range.

This 10-inch hybrid comes packing a surprising amount of goods considering its small size. It's outfitted with an HD screen and more than enough power to get you through a simple day of web browsing and even image editing. When you're ready kick back with some media streaming, you can pop off the 10-inch tablet.

Best gaming laptops

The Asus Strix GL502 is undoubtedly one of the best gaming laptops around for gaming in 1080p. It'll run with the settings cranked with games like Overwatch not dipping below 60fps. The battery life isn't the best, but the display, performance and built-in sound system more than make up for it.

Lenovo has crafted a brilliant, forward-thinking device that could very well create a subcategory in computing all of its own. The modest specs hold it back from taking on the big boys in terms of raw power, but the innovative digital touchpad keyboard and drawing surface look like trendsetters to us. The Android version is currently about £100 cheaper than the Windows one (click 'see all prices' above to see all options).

Best Chromebook

The Asus Chromebook Flip isn't perfect, but it's an impressive little piece of kit. Plus, it's so affordable that you might want to pick one up just to have a Chromebook on hand – even if you already own a MacBook or Windows laptop. Aside from the budget price tag, the Flip is one of the best-built Chromebooks to blaze the trail onward for more convertibles. Touchscreen functionality feels more logical, with a screen that actually rotates. The Flip meets all the core tenants of an ideal Chrome OS device.

cheap surface pro deals

Can a tablet really replace your laptop or home PC? That's still up for debate, but the best tablet trying to make that happen is the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 - and it does a fine job with the full blown version of Windows 10, an integrated kickstand and optional keyboard attachment. Great for for creative professionals, students and everyday folks alike - it's only the premium price that push it down the list, but if you're willing to pay for it, you're getting a lot of power. A LOT.
