Following Black Friday, Cyber Monday is once again proving to be a great day to get a deal on a tablet, laptop, desktop or monitor. Some retailers are continuing their incredible Black Friday sales -- including B&H, which is offering the brand new MacBook Air for $1,069 and serious, serious discounts on other Apple laptops through tonight (Nov. 26) at 11:59 p.m. ET.

Every retailer that sells computers -- desktops and laptops, Chromebooks and gaming rigs, tablets and convertibles -- is looking to clear out inventory before the end of 2018. We're seeing lots of markdowns on older machines and configurations featuring Intel's previous seventh-gen processors. But that's not to say that there aren't any brand-new systems with cutting-edge tech on sale. There definitely are.

We're also seeing how increased competition in the tablet market is driving down prices this year. At the high end, the rash of newly announced tablets in October from Apple, Google and Microsoft have already yielded one dynamite deal: a brand-new Microsoft Surface Pro bundled with a Type Cover keyboard for $800 at Best Buy. (The Black Friday version of this bundle, which also included the Pen, is now gone.) 

As always, remember the caveats. Most of these deals will end after today, though some will go on indefinitely. In addition:

  • Deals and prices have been verified and updated as of Monday, Nov. 26 at 2 p.m PT.
  • The deals below are available from companies including Amazon, Best BuyCostco, Dell (and Alienware), HP, Office Depot, Origin PC, Target, Sam's Club, Staples, B&H and Walmart.
  • CNET may get a share of revenue from the sale of the products featured on this page.

Tablets

Surface Pro 6 with Type Cover for $799 (save $260)

Sarah Tew/CNET

It's not as sweet at the Black Friday deal, which also included the Pen, but Best Buy's bundle still rocks: you get a brand new Surface Pro 6 with Intel Core i5 and a Surface Type Cover for $799. The Pen tacks on another $99, but this complete set usually retails for more than $1,100.

Sold out: HP ZBook x2 G4 for $899 at B&H (Save $1,000)

This is a terrific deal if you need a professional pressure-sensitive tablet that doubles as a laptop. The configuration has an i7-7500U, 4K screen (not the color-accurate one), 8GB RAM and a 256GB SSD, but it also has a workstation-class Nvidia Quadro M620. 

Though some configurations remain in stock, the really good $899 deal appears to be gone for now.

Amazon Fire HD 10 Kids Edition tablet for $150 ($50 off)

Amazon is discounting a bunch of its Kids' tablets, including the Fire HD 10. At $100, the non-Kids version with Alexa Hands-Free is a total steal (it had been sold out, but is now back in stock). Other retailers, including Best Buy, offer similar prices for that model. Amazon's discounts on its kids' tablets include:

Laptops 

MacBook Air (2018) with 8GB of RAM and 128GB SSD for $1,069 (save $130)

This is the brand new MacBook Air, equipped with a 1.6GHz Intel Core i5 processor, a 13.3-inch Retina display (with a 2,560 by 1,600-pixel resolution) and integrated Intel UHD Graphics. There are multiple configurations on sale -- but the best deal is on the base model, with a 256GB hard drive and 8GB of RAM, which costs $1,069 in any color -- gold, silver or space gray.

Note that B&H is offering big discounts across Apple's various laptop lines

2017 Apple MacBook Air for $869 ($130 off)

Apple announced a new, more expensive of the beloved MacBook Air in October and B&H has the previous edition discounted to $869. It's a good deal -- you get a fifth-gen Intel Core i5, 8GB of RAM and a 128GB hard drive -- on an older, though still great, laptop, if you can deal with the lower-resolution screen.

Best Buy previously had it for $800 but that deal has expired.

HP Pavilion laptop (14-inch screen, Core i5, 8GB of RAM): $370 (save $260)

Staples has a 14-inch HP Pavilion laptop equipped with an Intel Core i5, 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive for $370. Without an SSD, it may not be super fast -- but, at this price, it's a monster deal nevertheless.

The deal appears to be sold out online, but may still be available for pickup in some stores.

Lenovo IdeaPad 330s with Core i5 and 1TB hard drive for $349 ($150 off)

It's not the fanciest laptop in the world, but it is slim and lightweight. And Walmart's configuration, which has an eighth-gen Intel Core i5 processor and 1TB hard drive, is a remarkable value.

Note that the similar Costco discount has expired, but Staples has an on-sale version of the same laptop with an AMD Ryzen 7 2700U instead, for $500 with the $150 off -- it's available online only.

Walmart's deal is available now.

Huawei MateBook X Pro for $1,350 (save $150)

This machine is compact, light, has a stellar sRGB display, a very good sound system and delivers solid performance for its size. This is the best price we've seen.

Deal available now through Nov. 26.

HP 15t laptop with Intel Core i7 for $550 ($690 off)

This remains a solid deal on a good machine with a slightly older, though high-end processor. You get a 15.6-inch touchscreen with a seventh-gen Core i7 CPU plus 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive.

This deal is available now through Nov. 26.

See at HP

HP 15 with Intel Core i7 and 1TB hard drive for $450 ($350 off)

Lots of retailers have deals going on this machine -- but we haven't seen any better than this one from Office Depot. HP model 15-da0086od features some killer components including a Core i7 CPU, 8GB of RAM and an enormous 1TB hard drive. 

HP's offering a similar touchscreen model for $550 (above).

See at Office Depot

Dell XPS 13 for $1,399 ($250 off)

The XPS 13 is one of the best all-around 13-inch laptops, and this is a decent discount at Costco on a 13-inch model with a Core i7 processor. 

Costco's deal is live now and available online only through Nov. 26 or while supplies last.

Lenovo Flex 5 with Intel Core i5 and 1TB hard drive for $500 ($300 off)

A simply killer deal from Office Depot. The Flex 5's 15.6-inch display gives you more room for work and, complemented by its speakers, makes it good for video, music and games. It also has plenty of battery life to get you through the day.

This deal is available in-store only.

Gaming PCs

Origin PC Eon15-S and games bundle for $1,300 (save $400)

Sarah Tew/CNET

We're fans of Origin PC, and its Eon15-S, which includes some features you don't normally see in a gaming system at this price: support for three external monitors, including one with G-Sync support, and a removable battery. In addition to discounting the system by more than $200 for Cyber Monday, the company is also throwing in some extras with some configurations:

  • A digital copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 
  • A digital Steam key for SCUM 
  • A free Star Trek: Online Gamma Vanguard starter pack and Tier 6 Archon Class Assault Cruiser

This deal is available now.

HP Pavilion gaming laptop with Nvidia GTX 1050Ti for $599 ($230 off)

Walmart has a solid markdown of over $200 on a 15.6-inch laptop from HP. You get a respectable collection of entry-level gaming components, including an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050Ti GPU.

Razer Blade Pro 17.3-inch gaming laptop for $3,900 ($1,100 off)

OK, so it's not a "bargain" necessarily, but if you were looking for a slim big-screen laptop for gaming or content creation you can save yourself some serious coin with this Blade Pro deal. At this price, you're getting a lot of processing and graphics performance, along with extras including a color-accurate 4K-resolution touchscreen and a mechanical keyboard. (Note that Newegg is also offering this deal.)

Chromebooks

HP Chromebook with 14-inch display and Intel Celeron CPU for $210 ($40 off)

Sarah Tew/CNET

Chromebooks are often so inexpensive that retailers have a difficult time marking them down more -- even during Black Friday. We haven't reviewed this particular 14-inch Chromebook by HP but the specs look decent at this price. 

Deal available now through Dec. 1.

See at Staples

HP 11.6-inch Chromebook for $160 ($60 off)

This is some dirt-cheap Cyber Monday business. This HP machine is a basic one: You get an 11.6-inch display, a dual-core Intel Celeron CPU, 4GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. For $160.
