Labor Day is a big deal for tech sales, and even though it's not yet the weekend, sales are already rolling in. Whether you're in the market for laptops, phones, tablets, or even a new TV, there's definitely a deal out there just waiting for you to snatch it up.
The hard part is finding it, but lucky for you, I’ve already taken care of all the hard work. For the rest of the week, I'll be updating this list with the best deals on laptops, tablets, TVs, and more that I can find, across sites like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart.
The best Labor Day laptop deals
Laptops are a Labor Day staple. Here are my picks, across both PC and Mac.
-
Apple MacBook Air 13-inch with M4 Chip: $799 at Amazon (was $999). Apple’s most recent MacBook Air, this comes with the new M4 chip and a base 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
-
Apple MacBook Air 15-inch with M4 Chip: $999 at Amazon (was $1,199). This MacBook Air model also has an M4 chip and starts with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, but has a larger, 15-inch screen.
-
Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch with M4/M4 Pro/M4 Max chip: $1,299 at Amazon (was $1,599). The smaller MacBook Pro starts with an M4 chip, 16GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage, but can be configured with either an M4 Pro or M4 Max chip, as well as higher memory and storage capacities.
-
Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch with M4 Pro/M4 Max Chip: $2,229 at Amazon (was $2,499). The larger MacBook Pro has the biggest screen on an Apple laptop, and comes packed with either an M4 Pro or Max Max chip, with RAM and storage configurable depending on how much you're willing to spend.
-
Microsoft Surface Laptop 13-inch: $799 at Best Buy (was $900). Microsoft's own spin on a MacBook like form factor is on sale right now, offering a familiar layout to anyone hopping to Windows for the first time, and coming with a battery-friendly ARM chip.
-
Samsung Galaxy Book5 360: $999 at Amazon (was $1,350). This Samsung laptop is convertible, meaning it can flip around for a tablet like form factor. It has a mid-range Intel Core Ultra 7.
-
Asus ROG Strix G16: $1,275 at Amazon (was $1,500). Asus' ROG Strix G16 gaming laptop comes in a few varieties, all on sale. The more expensive ones come with a 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz display, Intel Core i9 processor, and 1TB SSD. Or, you can get an entry level model with an FHD+ 165Hz display and an Intel Core i7 processor.
-
Alienware Aurora 16X: $1,350 at Dell (was $1,550). This slightly more expensive gaming laptop represents a more approachable design for premium Dell sub brand Alienware, and starts with a 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz display, an Intel Core Ultra 7 GPU, 16GB of RAM, an RTX 5060 GPU, and a generous 1TB of storage. You can also spend more to get more powerful configurations.
-
HP Victus 15.6": $820 at Best Buy (was $900). This cheaper gaming laptop costs a little more than a premium Chromebook, but has a proper Ryzen 7 CPU and RTX 4050 GPU, plus a 1080p screen that supports 144Hz gameplay. Some of the tech is a few generations old, but with prices like these, that's a compromise you might be willing to make.
-
Acer Chromebook Plus 514: $342 at Amazon (was $400). This Chromebook has a generous 1080p IPS screen, and while it's not as powerful as more expensive laptops, it comes with a number of "Chromebook Plus" AI features that seek to even the odds.
-
Acer Chromebook 315: $139 at Best Buy (was $299). This is one of the most affordable laptops you can get right now, and while it's a bit weaker and less feature-rich than a Chromebook Plus, it still has a generous 15.6-inch 1080p screen.
The best Labor Day tablet deals
Whether you prefer Apple or Android, there are some worthwhile tablet sales right now.
-
Apple 11-Inch iPad: $299 at Amazon (was $349). Apple's basic iPad can be purchased at a slight discount right now, and comes with an A16 chip, which is the same processor in the iPhone 14 Pro.
-
Apple 13-Inch iPad Air: $649 at Amazon (was $799). The iPad Air technically isn't Apple's thinnest iPad anymore, but it's a decent upgrade over the base model, with the much more powerful M3 chip and the option to buy in either 13 or 11 inches.
-
Apple iPad Pro: $897 at Amazon (was $999). Apple's most premium (and actually thinnest) iPad, this model boasts the M4 chip, putting it roughly on par with a MacBook Air. A first for iPads, it also has an OLED screen.
-
Microsoft Surface Pro: $1,000 at Best Buy (was $1,200). This pick is the only tablet on this list with a full-fledged desktop operating system, complete with the same Windows 11 experience you'll find on any other PC. That makes it great for people who want to be able to shift from tablet style convenience into a more traditional computing environment at the drop of a hat.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+: $146
