I’ve been testing laptops most of my life and these are the best bargains of Prime Day 2026

• The Amazon Spring Deal Days sale runs from Tuesday 23 June until midnight on Friday 26 June 2026
• We’re expecting to see the biggest discounts on laptops of all stripes since the Amazon Spring Sale – and now might be the best time to buy due to ongoing RAM and storage price rises
• We check all the deals we feature against a set of strict criteria to make sure we only highlight the real deals – not the fake ones
• Remember, to take advantage of any Prime Day deal on Amazon.com, you need to be a Prime member. If you sign up now, you’ll get a 30-day free trial you can cancel once the event is over

Amazon’s Prime Day is finally upon us and, just like last year, it runs for four days in 2026, from Tuesday 23 June until midnight on Friday 26 June. What this means is there’s no need to panic buy as there has been in previous years.

In fact, there’s plenty of time for you to do your research and bag yourself a proper bargain. On this page, we’re highlighting deals across the laptop spectrum, from cheap Chromebooks to flagship ultraportables, so if you’re looking to refresh your ageing work laptop or need a new gaming machine, you’ve come to the right place.

As ever with laptops, however, it can be tricky to judge which are the best deals – or, indeed, if they are deals at all – especially as there are so many different variants of each laptop model to choose from, each with a different level of specification and a different price. Never fear, though, because that’s where we come in.

Throughout this week, we’re going to be sifting through all the deals on Amazon (and other retailers) and we’ll post the best we find right here. And rest assured, we’ll only be posting the deals that actually offer a discount over the historical average price, not the ones where the price is put up just before the event, and then brought back down to make it look like a bigger bargain than it actually is.

Even if you don’t see anything straight away that piques your interest, keep coming back – we’ll be continually adding to the deals as and when we find them.

The best Prime Day laptop deals 2026

1. ASUS Zenbook A14 OLED UX3407QA (16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) – new LOWER PRICE

• 👀 PRICE UPDATE!👀 was £550, now £530 | View deal
• Average price over the past 180 days at Amazon: £734

approved deal

The Zenbook A14 has been a favourite here at Expert Reviews ever since it was first released back in the first months of 2025 and at £550 £530 it represents a solid bargain. This price gets you a slim, lightweight, achingly gorgeous machine with a lovely matte ceraluminum finish. It’s powered by a first-generation Snapdragon X1-26-100 processor, and has 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. It won’t play games particularly well, but battery life is stellar and it comes with a vibrant, Full HD OLED display as well.

It has been discounted before during Black Friday and the Amazon Spring Sale earlier this year, but this is the lowest we’ve seen it dip to so far.

2. Microsoft Surface Laptop 13in (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD)

• NEW entry! | Amazon Prime Day 2026 price: £700 | View deal
• Average price over the past 180 days at Amazon: £872

approved deal

Microsoft’s newer laptops are getting very expensive right now, but stick with older models like the 13in Surface Laptop, and you can still bag yourself a bargain. This Prime Day banger sees the price reduced to a very tempting £700. We tested the 15in Snapdragon X Elite version, which is more expensive, but if you want the best battery life, it’s this 8-core Snapdragon X Plus model you want.

It also comes with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD on board, which should be plenty for everyday tasks. The IPS touchscreen is lovely; it’s not OLED, but with an aspect ratio of 3:2 it’s a little taller than most similarly sized rivals and feels very roomy.

It may not be as compact as the Surface Pro below but it’s just as capable, plus you don’t have to purchase the keyboard separately. This is currently the lowest price we’ve seen it reach since Black Friday 2025.

2. Microsoft Surface Pro 12-inch (16GB RAM, 256GB SSD)

• Amazon Prime Day 2026 price: £600 | View deal
• Average price over the past 180 days at Amazon: £738

approved deal

At its launch price, the latest Microsoft Surface Pro Windows tablet wasn’t, truth be told, particularly good value for money. But at this Prime Day price, it’s much more palatable. You’re not getting the most powerful processor around, so gaming on this machine is out of the window, but the Snapdragon X Plus chip does deliver decent responsiveness in Windows and battery life is impressive too. In our video playback test, it lasted 19.3 hours.

If you’re tempted, don’t forget to purchase the 12-inch Surface Pro keyboard case, which turns this tablet into a proper laptop. You pick one up at a fairly reasonable £113.

3. ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED UX3405CA (16GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

• Amazon Prime Day 2026 price: £730 | View deal
• Average price over the past 180 days at Amazon: £912

approved deal

You can’t really go wrong with an Asus Zenbook laptop, and this one is a belter. It’s the 2025 update to the standard 14in model we reviewed at the end of 2023, where we praised its build and display quality – and it still comes with the same chassis and vibrant 14in 2K OLED touchscreen.

It’s a great laptop, and the price is tempting: £730 is a pretty good price for a lightweight, well-made machine this capable, and it represents a decent discount on recent pricing of around £849. Prices did drop to £750 at the end of March/beginning of April, but this is even cheaper, and with laptop prices rising at the moment, it’s well worth considering.

4. HP OmniBook X Flip 2-in-1 (16GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

• Amazon Prime Day 2026 price: £990
• Average price over the past 180 days: £1,154

approved deal

When we first reviewed the HP OmniBook X Flip 2-in-1 we were impressed with its “Rolls Royce” build quality, among other things, but not the sky-high price of our review sample. Time wears on, however, and now roughly a year later, we’re seeing far lower prices in the Amazon Prime Day sale, 2026, with this variant selling for £990. That’s around half the price of the model we tested.

Admittedly, this one comes with a slightly slower processor, half the RAM (16GB) and a smaller 1TB SSD. And its display is only a 1,290 x 1,200 resolution touchscreen (don’t believe the 2K headline). However, those specifications are still acceptable, especially when the rest of the laptop is so good.

5. Lenovo Legion 5 (Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

• Amazon Prime Day 2026 price: £1,350 | View deal at Amazon
• Average price over the past 180 days: £1,521

With the price of RAM and storage going through the roof at the moment thanks to the demand from datacentres, keen PC gamers would do well to consider a laptop instead of a desktop rig.

This Lenovo model is a case in point. It comes with all the bells and whistles – an RTX 5070 GPU, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD, plus a 2,560 x 1,600 165Hz OLED screen – yet the price only a little higher than a 15in M5 MacBook Air.

The only catch is that the CPU is a two-generation-old Intel Core i7 -13650HX, but that still ought to provide enough grunt for most applications, while the RTX 5070 will be cope with any modern AAA game without breaking sweat.
