Best Amazon Prime Day laptop deals: Chromebook, Macbook and laptop offers

It would be an understatement to say that all of our lives have changed significantly over the last six months but probably one of the biggest alterations has got to be adapting office life to a new work from home situation.

Like with anything, there are pros and cons to both, lovers and haters of the new way of doing things - but we think we have something for the latter group to make WFH life that little bit easier.

Amazon Prime Day is almost here and for two whole days - October 13 and 14 - the online retailing giants will be slashing prices across thousands of products - including laptops.

Say goodbye to the endless waiting, dreaded wheels of doom or frustrating sand-timer emoticon - you can now shop a brand new device without breaking the bank.

Typically taking place in June, due to the influx of essential purchases made on the one-stop shop during lockdown, the retailer rescheduled to ensure that customers everywhere could still take advantage of impressive reductions.

While the sales extend to a huge range of genres across TVs, gadgets, baby deals and more, it’s laptop offerings that have particularly caught our eye.

Brands like Dell and HP have got in on the action with reductions across the latest and greatest models.

Whatever your needs, there’s the device to match. Student-friendly devices? Check. State-of-the-art portable computers to nail your WFH needs? Check. Business trip-ready models? Check. Mini travel-friendly iterations? Check.

To get in on the mega sales extravaganza, you need to be a Prime customer. This entails either a monthly subscription of £7.99 a month (or just £3.99 for students) or an annual fee of £79 a month. This will not only give you access to Prime Day but also to an endless selection of items for free next day delivery as well as Prime Video and a huge selection of ebooks. Not ready to commit just yet? Opt for the 30 day trial period to try before you buy.

We have selected the best deals on laptops to give you the best chance to bag a bargain - but hurry as these deals won’t last for long.

There are two types - Lightning or Deals of the Day - both of which have a time limit and once the stock is gone, it’s gone.

The sale is underway and we've gathered the impressive deals live at Amazon.
