One of the best work-from-home laptops is $120 off at Dell

The Dell Inspiron 15 is one of the best laptops for working from home without spending a fortune. It's currently on sale at Dell for a fantastically low price.

Dell laptop deals love to tempt us all year round, and today we’re seeing a great option to help prepare you for the new year. Today, you can buy the Dell Inspiron 15 for $330 instead of $450. We consider it to be one of the best laptops around for anyone working from home and keeping costs down. Read on and we’ll take you through what it has to offer, but remember, that $120 discount won’t stick around forever.

Check out our extensive guide to the best laptops for working from home and you’ll see the Dell Inspiron 15 riding high up top. The range is well priced while offering just the hardware you need for a great experience when working. This particular model has an AMD Ryzen 5 7520U CPU as well as 8GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. Basic stuff, sure, but the design of the laptop is built to last and very robust for the price.

A bigger highlight is a reminder of why Dell is one of the best laptop brands: its high quality display. It has a 15.6-inch full HD screen with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 250 nits of brightness. While that won’t look so good in bright conditions, it’s otherwise a great screen for the price and we really appreciate the high refresh rate to enjoy smooth browsing.

This isn’t one of the best laptops for high performance, but the Dell Inspiron 15 is a good all-rounder for anyone seeking a robust business laptop. It has a built-in HD webcam which is useful, roomy keycaps, a numeric keypad, a neat lift hinge for more comfortable typing, and thermals which adapt to how you’re working, such as if you’re at your desk or working on your lap. It all comes together to be pretty appealing, with the last highlight being the ability to charge up to 80% in just 60 minutes.

Usually $450, the Dell Inspiron 15 is down to a super affordable $330 right now at Dell. The $120 price cut makes now the ideal time to buy, especially if you’re looking ahead to working on the move in 2025. Buy it now so you don’t miss out on the sweet discount.

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.

Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.

Google DeepMind's AI world model Genie 4 can now build interactive worlds that you can explore and reshape as they run. It also generates ambient sounds, music, and dialogue that respond to your actions.

The new world model builds on Genie 3 with improved realism, more natural human movement, and better simulations of real-world physics. It could eventually help with everything from game development to training robots.

Apple has an incredible talent for making me admire its products while simultaneously questioning what on earth it's thinking with the pricing. This isn't even something as bizarre as a monitor stand, but the audacity for starting a new laptop lineup from $2,000 doesn't surprise me.

The newly announced 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 is just the latest to showcase this. The funny thing is, I already know that it's going to be a reliable workstation. You get a powerful new 2nm M6 processor, a gorgeous Liquid Retina XDR display, and up to 24 hours of battery life. We were impressed by the M5 MacBook Air, so the high-end M6 powered MacBook Pro definitely won't let us down.
