This year’s Presidents’ Day laptop sales are just around the corner now. This event, which falls in mid-February, is usually the best time earlier in the calendar year to bag a new machine so it’s well worth getting prepared ahead of time.
Based on previous sales, we’re expecting fantastic Presidents’ Day laptop deals from leading retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Dell, and HP – all of which we’ll be rounding up right here on this page. Generally speaking, discounts tend to start a little ahead of Presidents’ Day itself, so expect plenty of laptop deals in the build-up to the federal holiday.
If you’re interested, you’ll find a roundup of today’s best laptop deals ahead of President’s Day just down below as well as a selection of last year’s top deals. You can also head on over to our main President’s Day sales page if you’re looking for other recommendations. We’re covering everything from cheap TVs to premium mattresses, so don’t hesitate to bookmark our pages and check in regularly.
When do Presidents’ Day laptop sales begin?
Presidents’ Day itself falls on Monday, February 19th this year but we expect plenty of retailers to start offering laptop deals ahead of this date.
It’s not uncommon for online retailers to begin retail events weeks in advance of a federal holiday, although most usually start their sales around a week ahead of the date itself. We’ll generally start rounding up the best Presidents’ Day laptop sales at the beginning of February so we’d highly recommend bookmarking this page and revisiting from then onwards.
Presidents’ Day laptop sales: what to expect
Last year’s Presidents’ Day laptop sales had some of the strongest laptop deals of the year. While they didn’t quite match the level of the discounts we saw over Black Friday later in the year, the quality of deals were really decent for a sale taking place earlier in February.
For example, the Apple MacBook Air M1 (a great value buy) dropped down to $799.99 at Amazon – a price that was only beaten by $50 the following November during Black Friday. Dell also featured some of its best laptop deals all year – with discounts of up to $250 off a range of premium XPS 13 models and cheaper Inspiron machines. Best Buy and HP also featured great discounts on Chromebooks and gaming laptops, the latter of which featured great prices on machines with RTX 3050, RTX 3060, and RTX 3070 Ti graphics cards – which were the latest generation of GPU at the time.
If you’re interested, we’ve preserved a list of the best Presidents’ Day laptop sales from last year just down below, which include all of the mentions above. Generally speaking, we’re not expecting this year’s sales to deviate too much from previous iterations (the retailers will likely be the same, for example) but we will see newer models with newer components and hopefully even lower prices on older machines.
