If you’re looking to grab yourself a gaming laptop, then you’ll appreciate the deals we’ve found and collected below, especially since gaming laptops can be quite expensive. Don’t worry, though, since we’ve picked deals based on different price ranges and specs, so whether you want something entry-level or the best money can buy, we’ve got a deal for you below. Even so, if our picks below don’t quite tickle your fancy, then check out some of these other great gaming laptop deals instead.
If you want a solid entry-level gaming laptop, then this one from Asus is perfect, especially since it absolutely looks like a gaming laptop with all the RGB it has in and around it. Under the hood, it comes with an RTX 4060, which is a respectable 1080p, which is great because the monitor tops out at 1080p. That said, it can hit a 165Hz refresh rate, so it’s perfectly balanced with the GPU, and you can hit those rates with higher graphical capabilities. As for CPU, you get the Intel Core i7-13650HX, which is perfect for handling pretty much any game, as well as some streaming if you’d consider doing that, although it might struggle just a tad. Luckily, though, it does have 16GB of DDR5 RAM, so that will help a little.
Moving up a notch in both specs and price, this Alienware x16 not only looks cool but also has a powerful RTX 4070, which goes well with the 16-inch QHD+ screen. That said, it might struggle to hit the mind-boggling 240Hz refresh rate it can manage on high settings, so you’ll have to compromise or potentially go down to 1080p. Either way, you have options when it comes to what you want to prioritize based on the type of games you’re playing. As for processing, you get the same Intel Core i7-13700H CPU, which is perfect for the graphics card. You’ll also appreciate the 16GB of DDR5 RAM and the 1TB of storage you get, both of which should be more than enough for most folks.
If you want the most powerful gaming has to offer, then you need an RTX 4090, which this configuration of the Legion Pro 7i has. Interestingly enough, it doesn’t run a 4K resolution, but a 2560 x 1600 resolution instead at a whopping 240Hz refresh rate. Of course, the RTX 4090 is more than capable of hitting that, even with higher graphical settings. It also has the Intel Core i9-13900HX, one of the most powerful CPUs in the market that will handle pretty much any game or task you throw at it, including streaming. RAM has also been bumped up to 32GB of DDR5, and we can’t imagine most people will bump at its limit, so this is impressive. The same goes for the 2 TB of storage you get. All in all, probably one of the best gaming laptops you can buy for less than $3,000
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
