Truly good laptop deals can be few and far between, which is why you’d be remiss to sleep on an event like October Prime Day. While Amazon isn’t the first place we’d go to buy a laptop, particularly if you’re keen on speccing it out precisely as you need it to be, it can have solid, preconfigured models at good prices. October Prime Day deals have brought discounts to a few of our favorite machines, from MacBooks to Windows laptops to Chromebooks. If you’re looking for your next daily driver or have a child who needs an upgraded laptop for school, these are the best Prime Day laptops deals you can get this year.

MacBooks are not exempt from our general laptop buying advice: if you want to truly make your next MacBook your own, you should go directly to Apple to get the specs you want. However, you can often find solid deals on entry-level machines at Amazon, and even some configurations with extra storage.

There are so many different flavors of Windows laptops out there that it can be hard to choose the best one for you. Whether you've had your eye on a premium gaming machine or an upgraded model that's just a little better than your current daily driver, Prime Day deals on laptops can help you save a bit of cash on your next purchase.

Chromebooks remain affordable alternatives to traditional laptops if you spend most of your time in a browser. But unlike this space a few years ago, there are more high-powered Chromebooks available now than ever before. Prime Day presents a good opportunity to save on all types of Chromebooks, affordable to high-end alike.
