Labor Day is a big deal in the laptop industry. Retailers need to reduce the stock of products that came out earlier in the year to make room for new launches during the fall. That’s great news for you, since it means big sales on new laptops that were just released. Retailers like Amazon, Walmart<!–>, Best Buy–>, and more are offering excellent deals during the holiday.

It also just so happens to coincide with back-to-school sales, making it a great time to spring for a new device. We’ve gone hands-on with dozens of laptops and computers this year and kept watch over some of the best deals. Here are the best deals we’ve encountered so far on a variety of laptops from different price points.
