The Dell Inspiron 15 is also a fantastic bargain over at Dell’s website in the US right now, but you’ll have to move fast to grab it since two of the three available configurations are already sold out. You can still get one with a 15.6-inch non-touch full HD display at 120Hz, Intel Core i7-1255U processor with integrated Iris Xe graphics, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and 512GB PCIe SSD for $150 off.

Is 2024 the year of ultra-cheap Windows 11 laptops that are actually worth buying? You know what… I think it might be. Usually, I’d say if you’re looking for a laptop for around £300/$300, then you’re better off buying a Chromebook, but I’ve seen some brilliant cheap deals on Windows 11 devices that are actually better value than most Chromebooks. What a time to be alive!
Take this one:
Dell Inspiron 15 (AMD Ryzen 5, 8GB RAM, 512GB): was £399 now £299 at Dell
You’re getting a nicely designed laptop, with 8GB RAM and a roomy 512GB SSD that puts most Chromebooks to shame. As it runs Windows 11 Home, you’ll be able to use any of the applications you depend on, rather than having to compromise with Chrome OS alternatives like you’d need to do with a Chromebook. A few years ago, retailers would have tried selling a laptop at this price with just 4GB of RAM, which would mean Windows 11 would run painfully slow, but this has 8GB, which makes it a much better machine at multitasking.
The Acer Nitro V 16 is the gaming laptop you should be looking for if you’re intent on a great gaming experience at the 1920×1200 display resolution, but don’t want to spend a fortune. Driven by Nvidia’s RTX 4060 GPU, it packs a significant amount of power for consistent frame rates (especially when using DLSS 3).
Gaming laptops powered by Team Green’s RTX 4000 series GPUs don’t often come cheap, and it’s great to see this deal still going strong for Cyber Monday.

Here’s an absolutely brilliant cheap Windows 11 laptop deal that’s still going strong from John Lewis, making it so cheap I’d argue it’s a better budget buy than many Chromebooks thanks to Windows 11’s versatility.
Vivobook 15 Laptop: was £349 now £259.99 at John Lewis
This laptop comes with an Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, 512GB SSD and a 15.6-inch 1080p screen. It’s a solidly built and stylish-looking budget laptop, and while it’s not the most powerful laptop in the world, it offers incredible value for money.
This is a great pick for students or people looking for a casual laptop to do some work on, who wants something for less than £300 that’s not a Chromebook.
This great deal at Currys for the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 was already a strong choice for Black Friday, and it’s now dropped by a further £50, making it an absolute steal.
Samsung Galaxy Book3 360: was £949 now £549
With an Intel Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM and a stunning OLED touchscreen, this is a brilliant performer, and a versatile laptop, as it can be used as a normal laptop, or with the keyboard folded back, it can be used like a tablet. Samsung claims up to 20 hours of battery life, which tracks with my experience of laptops powered by the Intel Core i5-1340P processor, depending on what tasks you’re using it for.
For this price, I think it’s an excellent deal for students and people who want a laptop they can use from the couch. Samsung’s S Pen stylus is also included, giving this laptop even more versatility.
Good morning! It’s officially Cyber Monday and that means I am once again on the hunt for any epic laptop deals I can find. And good news: I’ve already spotted a number of deals that have dropped in price since Black Friday, so buckle up as I bring you unmissable offers throughout the day!
