MORE: Nov. 16, 2022, 11:40 am EST This article has been updated with the latest Amazon laptops before Black Friday 2022. Here is a quick overview:
Amazon can’t compete with Walmart on very much cheap (under $100) Chromebook up front, but still one of the best places to get a laptop this holiday season.
Although its 48-hour Black Friday sale doesn’t technically start until next week, the retail giant is already rolling out regular discounts on top-of-the-line Samsung Galaxy Books and Apple MacBooks (including the Pro and Air models from earlier this year) ahead of Cyber Monday. Monday. Buyers looking for a basic Chromebook for kids or school can find plenty of options in the $100 to $300 range, including several ASUS machines that come with free Office 265 or Microsoft 365 subscriptions.
Gaming laptops from brands like MSI and Razer haven’t done well on Amazon at the moment, but we’ll be keeping an eye on their inevitable appearance.
Cheap Chromebooks and gaming laptops are the top deals at Walmart’s Black Friday
A press release revealed that select laptops from HP and Dell will see discounts of up to 40% during Amazon’s big event starting Thursday, Nov. 24 to Friday, Nov. 25, so if you are targeting these two types in particular. , until then. Otherwise, we recommend taking advantage of what we already see.

Check the price on Samsung’s website(opens in a new tab)however, and you’ll see the original sale for $699 – it’s not for sale on Amazon.
If all of this sounds like a lot of work, don’t worry: We’re going through Amazon’s first Black Friday laptops and picking out each one that’s worth buying based on actual MSRPs and the history of camelcamelcamel, the price-tracking site. rely on this type of research.
