If you’ve been thinking of picking up a new Lenovo laptop, you’ll be happy to know that Prime Big Deal Days deals is happening now (October 8 and 9), making it the perfect time to make a purchase. Lenovo is one of the bigger players in the PC market, along with Dell and HP, and it has possibly one of the widest selections and configurations of laptops from all the big players in the field. That can get a bit overwhelming, which is why we’ve done the hard part for you and rounded up some of our favorite Prime Day Lenovo deals below.

That said, if you don’t quite find what you’re looking for below, then be sure to check out our other roundups of the best Prime Day laptop deals and Prime Day gaming laptop deals. It’s also worth checking out these Prime Day tablet deals if you want a more portable experience.

Lenovo, much like Dell, has a truly massive collection of laptops and desktops to choose from, so it can definitely be overwhelming to figure out which one is best for your needs if you aren’t particularly tech-savvy. That said, there are some quick tips that you can keep in mind when you want to grab something off Lenovo. For example, regardless of whether you’re going for a Windows desktop or laptop, you’ll always want to aim for at least 8GB of RAM, which is mostly due to the fact that Windows likes to eat up quite a bit of it. If you’re looking for a gaming option, then you should be aiming for a minimum of 16GB, although that will also help with non-gaming uses. A similar rule applies for hard drives, where 1TB is the ideal starting point.

Of course, you can also take a look at some of our guides, such as this roundup of the best Lenovo laptops, and get going from there. Some great examples are Lenovo’s Legion 9i, which is an excellent gaming option, and Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i 16, which is a great laptop for creative folks.

Most of Lenovo’s stock is pretty excellent, which gives us tons of great products to parse through for our list of recommendations. That said, Lenovo does tend to have this issue where it over-values the MSRP on laptops to make deals look better, and that’s exceedingly the case with some ThinkPad options. Of course, other manufacturers do this, too, such as with some of the Dell Latitude options, but either way, we do our best to take into account the actual value of the specs compared to other laptops before adding a deal.

A lot of that is based on our own decades of experience as reviewers and deal hunters, as well as some tools that help us look at historical pricing to help us track down the best deals possible.

Speech-to-text apps have flooded the App Store, making it easier than ever to type on our Macs with just our voice. I have previously covered one such app called TypeWhisper. However, there has been a dearth of good text-to-speech models, and most of the good ones are locked behind a subscription.

Ollama, an open-source app that lets you run local AI models on your computer, wants to change that. It works on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and your prompts are never stored or used for training. 

Did you think hitting delete on your AI chatbot conversation actually makes it disappear? Georgia Tech researchers just proved that's not entirely true. They have built a forensic tool called ORISA that can dig deleted conversations from your phone and even rebuild them into a working chatbot session you can keep talking to.

How can ORISA bring deleted AI conversations back?

Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind. 

The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
