Updated 5:30 PM ET Friday, June 26: I’ve added more laptop deals, including the Surface Laptop and context around Apple’s recent price increases. The Best Laptop Prime Day Deal Photograph: Brenda Stolyar Save to wishlist Save to wishlist Microsoft Surface Laptop 13.8-inch (7th Edition) $1,500 $984 (34% off) Amazon $1,500 $1,180 (21% off) Best Buy $1,600 $1,150 (28% off) Amazon (15-inch) It started off Prime Day as my top pick. Then it disappeared—and now, it’s back at $835. It’s great to see one of my favorite laptops selling for a price this low, especially in light of the MacBook Air’s sudden price hike. The Surface Laptop is not only a fantastic alternative to the MacBook Air in terms of its refined design and sturdy build quality. It’s display is genuinely better in almost every way, thanks to its taller 3:2 aspect ratio and 120-Hz refresh rate. Put these laptops next to each other on a table, and I’ll opt for the Surface Laptop more often than not. And while this configuration comes with only 256 GB of storage, I can promise you won’t find a better laptop at this price right now. This may be the last time you’ll be able to buy the Surface Laptop at this price too, since Microsoft announced official price increases fairly recently.

For example, the M5 MacBook Air now starts at $1,299, which is a $200 bump. But here’s a tip: Amazon is still currently selling the 1 TB version of the MacBook Air for $150 less, giving you twice the storage at a lower cost. While the days of sub-$1,000 MacBook Airs may be gone, at least you can pack it full of storage for a reasonable price. For now, at least. Most people are already familiar with the MacBook Air, and it hasn’t changed much on the outside since 2022. But the 2026 model has two important upgrades: highly improved graphics performance thanks to the M5 chip, and support for up to two external monitors. There’s also a much larger 15-inch model , which is every bit as thin and powerful. Other than the size difference, it comes with a clearer and bassier speaker setup that’s on par with the MacBook Pro.
