The Best Laptop Deals for November 2022

If you missed the Prime Early Access Sale, PC makers like Dell, HP, Apple, and more have a number of machines to satisfy your computing needs, be that a traditional machine, a 2-in-1 touch-screen device, or a high-powered gaming laptop. 

If it’s been a while since your last laptop upgrade, advances in screen resolution, memory capacity, processor power, and battery capability abound. If you’re currently locked to the nearest outlet because your old battery no longer holds a charge, many models on the market today (especially lightweight Chromebooks) can last a full day or more on a single charge. 

If your old machine still has an old-school spinning HDD, you’ll love how snappy and safe an upgrade to a solid-state drive will be. If you’re on a lot of video conferences, pick a machine with a 1080p webcam so you look as good if not better than everyone else still stuck on a 720p lens. If all your old peripherals are still USB-A corded, note that most machines have moved up to mostly USB-C ports, so you might want to add a USB hub to your order if needed.

Finally, even though discounts on Apple laptops are usually neither common nor high-value, we’ve been seeing some sale prices on original M1 and M1 Pro laptop devices in the wake of the M2 release. With reports of a Mac-focused event in October, even more discounts may emerge soon, so keep your eyes peeled.
