Everyday use

If you're buying a laptop for everyday home use - browsing the web, streaming entertainment, replying to emails, then you really don't need to spend more than $300 / £300 during larger sales events. You will be looking for a laptop or Chromebook with an Intel Celeron, Intel Pentium Silver, MediaTek, AMD A4, or AMD A6 processor, 4GB RAM, and between 64GB and 128GB of st🔜orage (though you'll likely be able to find a 128GB SSD in th𒉰is price range during sales). 

At the top end of that spectrum, and on particularly strong discounts, you may find a laptop with an Intel Core i3 or Ryzen 3 processor and 8GB RAM. It's also worth noting that you'll be able to get away with less storage if you opt for a Chromebook, as Google's machines are built to run from the Cloud first and foremost 🐭- you'll be storing the majority of your fileಌs online. 

You'll spot a lot of 11-inch laptops running for super low prices over Prime Day, but we'd recommend being wary. You can often pi♊ck up a 14-inch model for around $30 - $40 / &poun🌃d;30 - £40 more and if you're going to be spending a lot of time on your computer, going for the extra display space is going to be well worth it. 

Which budget laptops should you buy on Prime Day?

We'd recommend keeping a close eye on the Acer Chromebook Spin 11, HP Stream (14-inch), and Dell Inspiron 15 3000 over Prime Day this year. All of these laptops have a long history of taking some serious price cuts during larger sales events and we expect them all to be a𓂃vailable for under $300 / £300 (considerably under in some cases). You'll find all of today's latest prices just below.
