We're getting a head start on Cyber Monday by scouring the Web for the best laptop deals.
Heading back to work after a turkey-filled four-day weekend is never easy, but knowing you can sneak onto your computer and score a great deal on a laptop without ever leaving your chair may make your Monday a little more tolerable. With Cyber Monday sales expected to reach $2 billion this year, according to Adobe Digital Index’s 2012 holiday buying forecast, you won’t be the only one snatching up good deals.
Though iPads and iPhones are on the top of many wish lists this year, 19 percent of shoppers are planning to buy a laptop this holiday season. However, laptops are generally a higher-ticket item; maybe one you don’t think you can afford right now. Thanks to price-slashing Cyber Monday finds, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to snag a great deal on a laptop. Depending on what model you buy, you may even have some extra dough to spend on your loved ones.
Though you may already be seeing ads for Black Friday, most retailers are keeping their Cyber Monday deals well under wraps. However, we’ve done a little digging and found a few Cyber Monday laptop deals that you can put on your shopping list now.
Note: We will be updating this story as more Cyber Monday laptop deals are announced. Know of any we’ve missed? Let us know in the comments below. Happy shopping!
Acer
Acer Aspire V3-771G-9456
Original Price: $899
Sale Price: $699
Savings: $200 (22%)
This Windows 8 machine has a second-generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz quad-core processor, 6GB of DDR3 memory, and a 750GB hard drive. It’s 17.3-inch HD+ screen features 1600 x 900 resolution, and LED backlight technology. Skype sessions will be easy with its built-in webcam and mic, and you can keep your files secure by using the built-in finger print reader. Ports include HDMI, two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports, and VGA. At just over 7 pounds, this 17-incher won’t be your best travel companion, but for under $700, it’s a great deal for a powerful machine.
Acer Aspire V3-771G-9809
Original Price: $949
Sale Price: $749
Savings: $200 (21%)
At just over 1-inch thick, this Acer Aspire model features Windows 8, a third-generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz processor, a 1TB 5400RPM SATA hard drive, 8GB of DDR3 memory, and a large 17.3-inch HD+ Widescreen CineCrystal LED-backlit display. Though it has a fairly thin design, at over 7 pounds, this is another 17-inch laptop you probably won’t be carrying around with ease.
Acer Aspire V3-771G-9804
Original Price: $1,099.99
Sale Price: $899.99
Savings: $200 (18%)
Hardly different from the 771G-9809 above, this model differs in storage. Instead of just having the SATA drive, the 771G-9804 has a 750GB 5400RPM SATA hard drive and a 120GB solid-state drive. Otherwise, except for the colors (the above comes in midnight black and this model comes in glossy grey) everything else is the same. Both models have Nvidia GeForce GT 650M graphics with 2GB of dedicated DDR3 VRAM.
Stay tuned for more deals …
