UPDATE: Jul. 11, 2025, 8:00 a.m. EDT We’ve updated this story to reflect current pricing and availability. We’ve also selected a new favorite 2-in-1 laptop deal, as our previous pick sold out.
The battle of the best Prime Day laptop deals seemed like M4 MacBook Air’s game to lose. In the lead-up to its annual members-only sale this week, Amazon had Apple’s latest 13-incher marked down to only $849 (in all colorways, too). That’s $150 off the M4 MacBook Air’s already modest MSRP of $999, which is a hefty discount for a popular laptop that only just came out in March.
I thought it would be tough for Amazon to one-up that deal once Prime Day formally started, but I’m happy to say it’s proven me wrong: A slew of Windows laptops have fallen to record-low prices there since Tuesday. That includes our beloved Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 and five different gaming laptops with Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series graphic cards, which were my Prime Day white whales. I really didn’t expect Amazon to put any on sale, much less at such steep discounts.
Prime Day 2025: Live updates on the top deals
As Mashable’s resident laptop guru (and someone who’s been covering Prime Day since 2019), I want to share a few quick reminders to help you make smart shopping decisions when you’re making a purchase as big as a new computer. One is to avoid third-party sellers on Amazon, which may have their own customer service policies or dabble in sketchy selling practices. The other is to cross-check prices with other retailers to verify Amazon’s deals — it occasionally lists incorrect MSRPs — and to make sure you’re getting the best price possible. For what it’s worth, Best Buy is Amazon’s biggest rival when it comes to laptop deals. It’s currently running a Black Friday in July sale alongside Prime Day through July 13, and its own RTX 50 series deals are pretty great.
Below, I’ve rounded up the best Prime Day laptop deals I’ve found on Amazon. Keep in mind that today (Friday, July 11) is the final day of the sale, and I don’t expect these offers to hang around much longer. Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price, while struck-through deals were sold out or expired at the time of writing.
Best MacBook deal
Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (M4).
The new 13-inch MacBook Air is our top budget pick for Apple users and a Mashable Choice Award winner. “It’s powerful, silent, and comes with a couple of much-needed upgrades,” including an upgraded 12MP webcam and support for two external displays, wrote senior editor Stan Schroeder. He gave it an overall rating of 4.5/5.
Amazon’s $849 deal applies to all colors of the base configuration with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage. The Sky Blue variant briefly dipped down to an even-cheaper $829 in late June, but I have no trouble endorsing it at its current price: It’s such a good deal on a popular new laptop that’s already pretty affordable.

Best Windows laptop deal
Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.
Microsoft’s 13.8-inch flagship PC is our favorite Windows laptop, combining a slick, sophisticated design with peppy performance and an all-day battery life. (Literally: It lasted nearly 23 hours in our testing.) This variant has a high-end Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage — our ideal baseline specs for most everyday users.
Prime members can snag the Platinum colorway on sale for just $918.99, which is 34% off its $1,399.99 MSRP and a new all-time low by a couple bucks. For comparison’s sake, Amazon’s deal is $181 cheaper than a competing discount in the Microsoft Store.
