Best Prime Day laptop deals LIVE — My top day 3 picks now on MacBooks, Chromebooks and more
Welcome to Day 3 of Prime Day 2025 — and somehow, the laptop deals just keep getting hotter. I've been reviewing laptops for over a decade and covering Amazon's mega-sales for nearly as long — and if there's one thing I've learned, it's how to tell the real deals from the meh ones.
Right now? It's a laptop lover's paradise. We're seeing serious price drops across the board, from sleek new MacBooks to beastly RTX 50-series gaming rigs. Case in point: the M4 MacBook Air is $150 off, and the Asus TUF F16 with an RTX 5060 is down $310 — which is wild considering how new this hardware is.
But it's not just the usual suspects on sale. We're also seeing Copilot+ PCs finally getting their first big discounts, like $130 off the Snapdragon X Plus Surface Laptop. Even Chromebooks are in on the action — the Lenovo IdeaPad 3i Chromebook is just $182 right now. That's barely more than a fancy dinner for two.
And if you're in the UK like I am, don't worry — the deals are just as juicy. I've spotted the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 with RTX 5070 down over £300, and the M4 MacBook Air is £150 off here too.
The takeaway? This is the longest Prime Day yet — four whole days of deals — and Day 3 is shaping up to be an absolute goldmine if you're in the market for a new laptop. I'm live-tracking the best laptop deals as they go live — so bookmark this page, and check back often if you want to score something worth your money.
Over $1,500 off this HP Laptop 15? It may have been $2,000 when it launched, but it's unlikely to be this much now. Regardless, with its Intel N100 CPU, 32GB of DDR4 RAM, 1tB SSD and even Windows 11 Pro onboard, this makes for a great, affordable laptop choice for college students. Plus, its 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) display is a great size for productivity.
Now $180 off, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3X makes for a fantastic personal laptop, especially at this price. It's Snapdragon X processor ensures, well, snappy performance and long battery life, and its 16GB of RAM and 512GB is enough everyday tasks. Throw in its 14-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) display with a 60Hz refresh rate, and it also makes for decent binge-watching.
Get onboard with AI for less thanks to this HP Omnibook 5 deal, which brings the perks of Copilot+ with it. It sports a 16-inch 2K (1920 x 1200) touchscreen, along with an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. Not bad for a laptop that can more than handle it's share of multitasking.
This 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop packs a Snapdragon X Plus CPU, which is ideal for school, work and everything in between. Along with its drastic performance boost and longer battery life thanks to the chip, it comes with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD — all to power its Copilot+ features. The $120 discount makes it all the sweeter.
Wait, over $2,000 off this business-focused Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 2? Now that's a crazy offer, but Lenovo is known to exaggerate these price cuts, so take this with a pinch of salt. Either way, it's still a low price for this laptop, and we noted in out Lenovo ThinkPad E16 hands-on that it has a lot of strengths. Expect an AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS CPU, 32GB of RAM, 1TB for storage and a sizeable 16-inch WUXGA (1920x1200) display.
If you're after swift performance in a sleek, lightweight laptop boasting a gorgeous display, then it's hard to go wrong here. Our Acer Swift 14 AI review says it all, with its 14.5 2.5K (2560 x 1600) 120Hz touchscreen, Snapdragon X Plus processor, 17-hour battery life, 16GB of DDR5X RAM and 1TB for storage. Not a big discount, but one still worth checking out.
The latest 13-inch MacBook Air M4 is Apple's greatest offering yet, and it's not only because of its speedy performance thanks to the M4 chip or its upgraded 12MP webcam. It's $100 less than its predecessor, and with that extra $100 off, you're getting one of the best laptops on the market at an epic price. Expect 16GB of unified memory and a 256 SSD in the model, but for more speed and storage, you can get the same discount. MacBook Air M4 (16GB/512GB): was $1,199 now $1,049MacBook Air M4 (24GB/512GB): was $1,399 now $1,249
One of the best laptops with an even bigger screen? You got it. The 15-inch M4 MacBook Air boasts a 15.3-inch (2880 x 1864) Liquid Retina display, and that's more screen real estate for work, watching shows and even some gaming. Better yet, its more powerful configurations are also discounted, and even $163 off for top-tier performance. MacBook Air M4 (16GB/512GB): was $1,399 now $1,249MacBook Air M4 (24GB/512GB): was $1,599 now $1,436
If you're a power user, you'll want the might of the MacBook Pro M4 on your side. You get fantastic performance from the M4 chip, useful Apple Intelligence features, a better webcam and very impressive battery life at over 18 hours. As we noted in our MacBook Pro 14-inch M4 review, it's the best laptop for photo and video editing, and much more. This model features a 14.2-inch (3024 x 1964) Retina display, Apple M4 CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD.
Not enough power? No problem, as the M4 Pro MacBook Pro also has a steep price cut, and you can save $200! If the base MacBook Pro M4 doesn't have enough power for you, upgrade to the MacBook Pro with an M4 Pro chip. As well as faster performance thanks to its 12-core CPU and 16-core GPU, you'll also get Thunderbolt 5 ports for even faster data transfer.
This Alienware 16 Aurora is now down by a whopping $400, and it's now the cheapest RTX 5060 gaming laptop I've seen. That all means you can save big on Nvidia's latest offering of gaming performance. Along with its RTX 5060 GPU, expect an Intel Core 7 240H CPU, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 1TB for storage and a 16-inch WQXGA (2560 x 1600) LED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
With well over $200 off, this is offering seriously good price to performance here with its Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU, RTX 5070 GPU, 32GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD. Pair that with that 15.6-inch QHD+ display with 165Hz refresh rate and you've got a proper beast.
Looking for a major boost in entry-level gaming performance? That's where the RTX 5060 steps in, and this Asus TUF Gaming F16 rocks the very same GPU with a $380 price cut.

Despite its more budget appeal, I was impressed by what the Acer Nitro V 15 could manage when I tested it out, especially for entry-level gaming.

For entry-level PC titles and competitive multiplayer games, this is a great shout for under $700. And its 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) 144Hz display makes games look smooth.
For a great entry-level gaming laptop that's less than $1,000, you can grab this Gigabyte G6 with an RTX 4050 now for a discounted $849.

The 15.6-inch 1080p screen gives you plenty of room to stream videos, and the 8GB of RAM and Intel Celeron CPU are good enough for basic work.

Stablecoins Are on the Rise. 3 Reasons Investors Should Pay Attention to This Popular Cryptocurrency.
Key Points New crypto legislation in Congress has paved the way for rapid expansion of the stablecoin industry. In addition to financial services firms, companies in industries ranging from retail to tech could launch new stablecoins. Stablecoins have the potential to disrupt existing industries and change the way investors value companies. 10 stocks we like better than Circle Internet Group › Passage of landmark new crypto legislation (the Genius Act) has led to a surge of positive sentiment about stablecoins. Some investors now think they have the potential to disrupt entire industries. Although some of this hype and buzz may be overblown, investors still need to pay attention. Here are three key ways that stablecoins could influence your investment strategy. 1. Impact on the business models of top companies Stablecoins, which are cryptocurrencies pegged 1:1 to a fiat currency such as the U.S. dollar, have the potential to affect the business models of companies that have nothing to do with crypto or blockchain. Take retail, for example. A handful of top retailers -- including Amazon and Walmart -- are now exploring stablecoins as a way of cutting down on credit card processing fees. At some point in the not-so-distant future, you might be paying for your online purchases with stablecoins, rather than credit cards. Or what about the financial services industry? Visa is a prime candidate for disruption, so it is already taking steps to prepare for the stablecoin era. And Western Union is also preparing for the day when customers use stablecoins rather than dollars to send cross-border remittances. So get ready to hear a lot about stablecoins on analyst calls and at investor conferences. After asking questions about the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), investors and analysts might start to ask about the impact of stablecoins. At the very least, investors need to understand how stablecoins might change or disrupt existing business models. 2. New stablecoin launches Also, get ready for a deluge of new stablecoin launches from some unlikely names. And it won't just be banks or financial institutions issuing them. Under the Genius Act, even nonbanks will be able to issue them. And that could really open the floodgates. Right now, Tether (CRYPTO: USDT) and USDC (CRYPTO: USDC), the stablecoin issued by Circle Internet Group (NYSE: CRCL), account for a whopping 90% of the $250 billion stablecoin industry. According to the latest Motley Fool stablecoin research, Tether and Circle are smaller than the biggest national banks, but larger than typical midsized brokerages. So, they're definitely, a force to be reckoned with. Right now, I'm partial to USDC, because it's the unofficial stablecoin of Coinbase Global (NASDAQ: COIN), which has a partnership agreement with Circle. I also am confident that it will never lose its peg to the U.S. dollar. I wouldn't have as much confidence in smaller stablecoins without such a proven track record or as many key partners. It's easy to see how this industry will become a lot more fragmented very soon, making it potentially even more confusing for the average investor. In June, Fortune reported that Apple, Airbnb, X, and Alphabet were exploring stablecoin launches. So, if you're an Apple fan, you might want to own an Apple stablecoin. The same is true if you're an Elon Musk fan -- wouldn't you want to own a cool new X stablecoin? 3. Ethereum Finally, there's the matter of which blockchain will emerge as the dominant platform for stablecoins. Presumably, investors will flock to blockchains that are seeing the most success with stablecoins. That's because stablecoins are key building blocks for everything that happens in blockchain finance. So the most popular blockchains for stablecoins should also get the highest valuations. Currently, Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) is getting a lot of buzz because it accounts for 49% of the stablecoin market. According to investment strategist Tom Lee of Fundstrat, stablecoins are going to create a "ChatGPT moment" for Ethereum, with the potential to really light a fire under its price. With that in mind, it's easy to see why high-profile investors such as Peter Thiel are now starting to increase their exposure to Ethereum as a way of investing in stablecoins. But Ethereum hardly has a monopoly on stablecoins. All Layer-1 blockchains, if they can support smart contracts, should also be able to support stablecoins. And that creates the opportunity for relatively unknown names to really pop. According to CoinGecko, Tron (CRYPTO: TRX) has a 34.1% share of the stablecoin market. By way of comparison, Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) only has a measly 2.2% share. If you think that stablecoins are the future, then Solana (with a $100 billion valuation), might be way overvalued compared to Tron, which has a $30 billion valuation. What's the best way to play the stablecoin trend? It's obvious that there are a number of different ways to play the stablecoin trend. The easiest way is to invest in the issuers of stablecoins, such as Circle. That gives you maximum exposure to any potential upside. You could also invest in blockchains such as Ethereum that are dominant in stablecoins, with the expectation that their values are going to soar. By the end of 2025, investing in stablecoins could get very interesting. What if a popular company like Amazon, Apple, or Alphabet decides to launch a stablecoin? It might fundamentally alter the way investors view these companies. That's why, even if you've never paid attention to stablecoins before, you should now. Very soon, they're going to become impossible to ignore. Should you invest $1,000 in Circle Internet Group right now? Before you buy stock in Circle Internet Group, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Circle Internet Group wasn't one of them.

Alibaba (BABA) vs. Amazon (AMZN): Which E-Commerce Stock Has More Upside Ahead of Q2 Earnings?
The second-quarter earnings season is in full swing, and investors are closely watching global e-commerce leaders like Amazon (AMZN) and Alibaba (BABA) to assess the strength of consumer demand, the outlook for digital retail, and their growing role in artificial intelligence. Using TipRanks' Stock Comparison Tool, we will compare these two tech-powerhouse stocks to find the better pick ahead of the upcoming earnings results, according to Wall Street analysts. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) Stock Alibaba is China's largest e-commerce and cloud services company, operating platforms like Taobao, Tmall, and AliCloud. The stock has climbed over 39% so far this year, driven by strong gains in its AI-powered cloud services and growing demand for instant delivery. The company is doubling down on artificial intelligence, aiming to use it to transform online shopping and cloud services. It is using AI across its apps and cloud platform to improve customer experience and stay ahead of the competition. Looking ahead, the company is set to report its Q1 FY26 earnings next month. Wall Street expects Alibaba to report earnings of $2.22 per share for Q1, down 3% from the year-ago quarter. The decline could be due to the company's heavy investment in logistics and delivery. Meanwhile, analysts project Q1 revenues at $35.46 billion, up 6% year-over-year. Is Alibaba Stock a Good Buy Right Now? Ahead of the Q1 results, Benchmark's Top analyst Fawne Jiang reiterated her Buy rating with a $176 price target, implying a 47% gain from current levels. The analyst sees recent share weakness as a 'buying opportunity' and encourages investors to 'build exposure on dips,' confident in Alibaba's strong long-term growth outlook. Nevertheless, she expects Alibaba's margins and profits to come under pressure in the near term due to increased spending. As a result, Benchmark has cut its EBITDA forecast to RMB44 billion for Q1 FY26 and RMB208 billion for the full FY26, 'reflecting near-term margin pressure.' Overall, Wall Street has a Strong Buy consensus rating on Alibaba stock based on 14 Buys and one Hold rating. The average Alibaba price target of $151.08 implies about 26% upside potential from current levels. Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) Stock E-commerce and cloud computing giant Amazon is proving the resilience of its business model despite macro challenges and tariff woes. The stock has climbed over 5% so far this year. Several analysts remain bullish on Amazon's high-margin cloud unit, Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is expected to benefit from growing AI demand. In Q1 2025, AWS accounted for just 19% of revenue but delivered an impressive 63% of total operating profit. Meanwhile, Amazon's fast-expanding advertising segment is also emerging as a key growth engine. Looking ahead, Amazon is scheduled to announce its second-quarter results on July 31. Wall Street projects a 9% growth in Amazon's revenue to $162 million. Meanwhile, analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of $1.32 compared to $1.26 in the prior-year quarter. Is Amazon a Buy, Hold, or Sell? Ahead of the Q2 print, BofA Securities analyst Justin Post raised his price target to $265, up from $248, while maintaining a Buy rating. Post expects Amazon's Q2 retail performance to be strong, helped by positive credit card spending data and an extended Prime Day. He also believes AWS is picking up pace, with a strong order backlog and rising cloud demand. The analyst now predicts Q2 revenue of $164 billion, above Wall Street's estimate of $162.1 billion. Turning to Wall Street, AMZN stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 44 Buys and one Hold assigned in the last three months. At $258.27, the average Amazon stock price target implies an 11.59% upside potential. Conclusion Ahead of earnings, Wall Street remains bullish on both Alibaba and Amazon stocks. However, analysts see greater upside potential in Alibaba, supported by its strong fundamentals, expanding AI initiatives, and solid recovery in e-commerce business. Meanwhile, Amazon is gaining from steady growth in cloud and advertising, two high-margin areas set to benefit from AI. While its upside may be smaller than Alibaba's, Amazon's stable growth and strong cash flow continue to earn Wall Street's confidence.

5 Reasons to Buy Nvidia Stock Like There's No Tomorrow
Key Points AI spending continues to grow robustly, creating greater demand for Nvidia's GPUs. Nvidia continues to dominate the AI chip market. New markets and technological advances present tremendous growth opportunities for Nvidia. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Why should you not invest in Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) right now? You'd definitely be late to the party buying shares of a company with a market cap of $4.2 trillion. Other stocks could have better growth prospects. Nvidia is also expensive, with a forward earnings multiple of over 38. I'm not going to focus on the bear case for Nvidia, though. The bull case looks even more compelling. Here are five reasons to buy Nvidia stock like there's no tomorrow. 1. AI spending is growing Any concerns that spending on artificial intelligence (AI) by cloud service providers and other customers would slow have evaporated. Alphabet gave more proof in its second-quarter update. The company raised its full-year capital expenditure guidance by $10 billion. This increase is due to Google Cloud investing in servers and data centers to meet rapidly growing demand. We haven't heard Amazon's and Microsoft's quarterly updates yet. However, I'd be surprised if their stories aren't similar to Google's. And when these cloud titans are investing more in servers and data centers, you can bet that a lot of the money will go to buy chips from Nvidia. 2. Continued GPU dominance There's a simple reason why customers are still turning to Nvidia: Its graphics processing units (GPUs) continue to dominate the AI market. Even with Google developing its tensor processing units (TPUs) and Amazon deploying its Inferentia and Trainium chips, Nvidia's seat on the throne remains secure. Blackwell, Nvidia's newest GPU architecture, has delivered the fastest commercial ramp-up in the company's history. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, Blackwell GPUs generated almost 70% of Nvidia's data center compute revenue. Keep in mind that these chips began shipping in significant volumes just earlier this year. 3. The CUDA moat Can Nvidia sustain its grip on the AI chip market? It seems likely, thanks to what some refer to as the company's "CUDA moat." CUDA (which stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture) is Nvidia's proprietary platform that allows programmers to use its GPUs. This architecture has been around for years, with millions of programmers using it. There's also an extensive library of code that's optimized for Nvidia's GPUs. The bottom line is that Nvidia's competitive advantage in AI chips probably won't disappear as long as the CUDA ecosystem remains strong. 4. Expanding into new markets Nvidia has a successful track record of expanding into new markets. The company started out making chips for gaming systems before recognizing that its GPUs were ideal for powering AI models. It continues to move into new markets. For example, Nvidia's Omniverse platform, which enables the creation of 3D simulations and digital twins, is already used by multiple major corporations. I suspect it could be a bigger growth driver in the future than meets the eye. The company's Drive platform should also enable it to profit as autonomous vehicles become more widely adopted. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently told shareholders that robotics represents the company's largest opportunity after AI. And while Huang seemed to pour cold water on expectations for quantum computing earlier this year, he stated at a conference in June that the technology "is reaching an inflection point." Unsurprisingly, Nvidia is investing heavily in quantum computing. 5. Tomorrow will be more exciting than today Perhaps the most important reason to buy Nvidia stock like there's no tomorrow is that there will be a tomorrow -- and it will almost certainly be more exciting than today. The advancement of AI over the next few years, including the advent of AI agents and potentially artificial general intelligence (AGI), could turbocharge the demand for Nvidia's GPUs. So could the proliferation of humanoid robots. Huang told analysts on Nvidia's Q1 earnings call, "The age of AI is here. From AI infrastructures, inference at scale, sovereign AI, enterprise AI, and industrial AI, Nvidia Corporation is ready." I think he was right. Do the experts think Nvidia is a buy right now? The Motley Fool's expert analyst team, drawing on years of investing experience and deep analysis of thousands of stocks, leverages our proprietary Moneyball AI investing database to uncover top opportunities. They've just revealed their to buy now — did Nvidia make the list? When our Stock Advisor analyst team has a stock recommendation, it can pay to listen. After all, Stock Advisor's total average return is up 1,041% vs. just 183% for the S&P — that is beating the market by 858.71%!* Imagine if you were a Stock Advisor member when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $636,628!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $1,063,471!* The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years.
