Best Laptop Deals for Amazon Prime Day 2022
Amazon’s Prime Day has already taken place this year, but the company is holding another big sales event this week.
It’s officially known as the ‘Prime Early Access Sale’, but will still take place across two full days and be exclusive to Amazon Prime subscribers. A subscription costs $139/£95 per year or $14.99/£8.99 per month, but you can get a free 30-day trial if you’ve never signed up before.
The event will take place on 11-12 October, but Amazon isn’t waiting until then to slash prices on many great laptops. Many of these don’t require a Prime subscription for now, and prices are unlikely to drop further during the event itself.
Alongside Black Friday and Prime Day itself, the Prime Early Access Sale is one of the best times to buy a new laptop. Here are our top picks of the ones available right now.
