Celebrate the Long 4th of July Weekend With These Sizzling Hot Laptop Deals

What are your holiday weekend plans? Most folks will be going to the pool, grilling, or watching fireworks (all weather-permitting). But what about some shopping? Yup, these holiday weekends are a great time to save, not just on appliances and outdoor items, but on one of PCMag’s favorite pieces of technology: laptops. Here are our top picks for all of the sales we found heading into the long weekend, but you can always find more on-sale suggestions in our Best Laptop Deals article.

Dell Laptop Deal

Our expert reviewed a non-touch Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7640 with a dedicated GPU and called it “a fair all-around utility laptop but not a leading one.” For those, like myself, whose daily operations consist of Google Suite and browser-based programs, that will be more than enough to get the job done. 

If you’re in the market for a utility laptop that will carry your daily computing tasks, the Dell Inspiron 16 Plus is a good fit. The sturdy metal casing and long battery life make this configuration ideal for commuting to and from the job site or classroom. A shortness of ports was one of the standout cons found during our testing, but that may be a non-issue depending on your individual needs. $400 off is a solid amount, and that’s more money in your pocket for a monitor or two.

HP Omen Deal

The potent combination of RTX 5090 GPU and Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU will make both gaming and productivity tasks a breeze, whether you’re eager to jump into the upcoming Chinese mythology-infused soulslike Wuchang: Fallen Feathers or 3D rendering your own soon-to-be classic.

The 16-inch display has a 2K resolution and is large enough to work or play on without a secondary monitor. The HP Omen Max is available in white or black, and the keyboard features customizable four-zone RGB lighting.

After some thorough testing, our PC expert called the RTX 5090 “the new fastest mobile GPU.” Thanks to this sale, you can see for yourself just how powerful it is. Secure yours today for a huge $1,200 off retail when you use code LEVELUP20.

Lenovo Laptop Deal

In our review of the 15.3-inch Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition, our expert found that the line has a lot going for it, including impressive battery life and a surprisingly portable build. This model has a gorgeous OLED touch screen, which elevates overall image quality and adds to the value of this purchase, especially for people who spend a lot of time looking at a screen, whether for work or leisure.

Measuring 0.55 by 12.3 by 8.63 inches and weighing 2.84 pounds, this touch-screen laptop is ready to roam, whether you’re traveling for work or commuting to class.

AI features enable multiple operating modes that will aid the user, including Wellness, which reminds you to rest your eyes and mind your posture; Collaboration, which enhances the quality of your video calls; and Attention, which blocks out digital distractions for a set time, and more.

“This would be a four-star review if Best Buy’s $999.99 price had stuck,” according to our expert, and this sale drops the price of this new model down to $899. Save a solid $200 on this AI-enhanced ultraportable when you buy now.

And don’t miss out on any of the savings. Make sure to keep an eye on our round-up of the Best Early Prime Day 2025 Deals.
