So before you fire up the BBQ grill one last time, we’ve rounded up a few noteworthy laptop deals you shouldn’t miss.

The Pavilion X2 is a neat budget laptop with a few aces up its sleeve. Originally spotted at this year’s CES, it features a detachable 1080p screen that can be used as a standalone tablet. When connected to its full-size keyboard, the Atom-powered machine can be used as a traditional laptop or propped up in tent or movie mode. The 3.2-lb. notebook packs a Micro HDMI port, USB-C port, and USB 2.0 port.

The Pavilion 15T is rated at providing up to 7 hours of battery life, which should be enough to get you through a full day of classes or a weekend Netflix marathon, the latter of which can be amplified via the built-in B&O speakers. Hardware-wise, the 4.2-lb. machine sports a Skylake Core i5 CPU at 2.3GHz, 8GB of RAM, and a 1TB hard drive.

HP Spectre 13.3-inch for $1,020:

HP’s Spectre 13 is so thin it makes Apple’s Macbook look like a heavyweight. Whereas Cupertino’s laptop is 0.5 inches thick, HP’s Spectre is just 0.4 inches thick. Yet despite its slim waistline, HP has managed to squeeze in a Skylake Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD. Based on our hands-on review, the machine holds up well and doesn’t fall victim to many of the standard gripes usually accompanied by laptops this thin.

Dorm room-friendly all-in-one desktops, such as the HP Pavilion 24T, start at $750 and if you only need a laptop for basic work, budget Pavilion X2 configurations are available for as low as $250, though keep in mind these latter machines don’t pack much media muscle.

Printers and other accessories have been reduced by up to 50 percent. The Labor Day sale ends Saturday, September 10.

Why you should buy the HP Stream 14 laptop
The HP Stream 14 laptop isn't going to challenge the performance of the best laptops with its Intel Celeron N4120 processor, Intel UHD Graphics 600, and 4GB of RAM. However, it will be more than enough to tackle daily activities like typing documents, making presentations, and managing spreadsheets. To help you with these tasks, the laptop comes with a one-year subscription to Office 365, or now officially known as Microsoft 365, which will give you access to Microsoft's popular line of productivity apps that include Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
