The best 17-inch laptop deals from HP, LG, Razer, and more

By

Long ago, 17-inch laptops were quite rare, and the only times you’d find them was on the best gaming laptops, and that usually meant you were buying a very expensive Alienware machine. Luckily, a lot has changed since then, and there are a plethora of pretty solid 17-inch laptop deals for you to pick from, whether you want something budget-friendly or one of the best laptops on the market. Not only that, but pretty much all the best laptop brands have 17-inch laptop options, so if you want to stay within a specific ecosystem or brand, then you can easily do that.

To that end, we’ve gone out and found some of our favorite 17-inch laptop deals out there, including HP laptop deals, Dell laptop deals (and Dell XPS laptop deals), and gaming laptop deals.

HP 17.3-inch laptop — $329, was $550

HP makes a huge range of laptop models to suit various needs, and this regularly places it among the best laptop brands. This 17.3-inch HP laptop is on the entry-level end of the model lineup, though it does have some slightly upgraded specs for getting your work or studies done throughout the day. It checks in with 8GB of RAM and a blazing fast 256GB solid state drive. It also has an Intel Pentium Silver processor and Intel UHD Graphics. While these are closer to the entry-level range, this laptop can still get things done. You’ll also find Windows 11 preinstalled to ensure you’re up and running in no time after breaking it out of the box.

The Dell Inspiron 14 is a great mid-range laptop with some pretty good specs under the hood, such as the Intel Core i7-1355U, a solid mid-range CPU that will let you get your work and day-to-day tasks done without an issue. Similarly, the 16GB of DDR5 RAM means you’re going to have a smooth experience, even if you end up opening a ton of apps and browser tabs at the same time. As for the 14-inch screen, it has a 1920 x 1200 resolution that’s great for watching content, and it’s even touch-enabled, although the 250 nits of peak brightness means you might struggle to see it with very bright lighting.

Lenovo Legion Slim 5 — $1,050, was $1,480

Grabbing yourself a gaming laptop doesn’t have to put you in the poorhouse, and if you’re looking for an entry-level option, the Legion Slim 5 is the way to go. It has an RTX 4060 under the hood, which is slightly worse than a desktop-grade RTX 4060, but still good enough to run 1080p with good graphical settings. It also comes with a mid-to-high-end Ryzen 7 7840HS and 16GB, both of which will give you excellent performance, and the screen is even OLED, which is impressive for this price range.

LG Gram 17-inch laptop — $1,260, was $1,800

The larger footprint of a 17-inch laptop allows for extra room for bulkier, more powerful hardware, and the LG Gram takes advantage of it. Its upgraded specs include 16GB of RAM and a 1TB solid state drive. It also has Thunderbolt 4 connectivity, allowing you to connect dual 4K monitors or a single 8K monitor. Specs like these put this laptop into a near-professional category, yet its price point makes it an option for anybody looking for a capable laptop. Despite its larger screen size, the LG Gram is designed to be ultra light and portable.

ASUS ROG Strix 17-inch gaming laptop — $1,600, was $1,900

It comes with an AMD Risen 9 processor and 16GB of RAM, as well as a super powerful NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card. A full 1TB of solid state storage should be plenty to house even the best PC games. This laptop also features the ROG intelligent cooling system that will keep you gaming for hours on end without overheating.

While the Razer Blade is designed to be gaming laptop, it can still be used for essentially anything. It has the specs you’ll need to do things like content creation and gaming, but it currently offers such massive savings that it should be considered by anyone looking for a top notch laptop. It’s powerful Intel i9 processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti graphics card combo will power you through almost any work day, and it also has a super fast 1TB solid state drive to house all of your media and work files.

The largest of the Dell XPS laptop models is the Dell XPS 17, and this touchscreen model sports an impressive 17-inch, 500 nit touchscreen display. This is particularly impressive when doing creative work, and when taking in some of your favorite content and digital worlds. Movies present larger and work becomes more convenient with the screen real estate of a 17-inch display, and with a slightly larger frame, the XPS 17 is able to house beefier internals and a larger battery. As spec’d for this deal, those internals include a 13th-generation Intel i7 processor, 32GB of RAM, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card, and 1TB a solid state storage.

Best refurbished laptop deals: How to find cheap used computers
microsoft surface laptop go 2020 on desk

If you're shopping for laptops on a budget, then you probably don't want to aim for the best laptops on the market, since they often cost thousands of dollars and usually give you diminishing returns the more expensive they get. On the other hand, refurbished laptops are a great way to save money while also helping the environment and reducing e-waste. Not only that, but most refurbished laptops tend to be refurbished by the brand and are backed by warranties and return windows, so even if something is not right with your refurbished laptop, you can get a replacement or your money back.

To that end, there are really great refurbished laptop sales that you can check out as part of Best Buy laptop deals, Dell laptop deals, HP laptop deals and Lenovo laptop deals. Alternatively, if you're in the Apple ecosystem, take a look at these refurbished MacBook deals, or if you still want to go for something new, you could consider checking out these laptop deals instead.
Best Buy refurbished laptops -- starting at $113
Best Buy's refurbished laptops are -- you guessed it -- Geek Squad Certified and while they may not be free and clear of absolutely all cosmetic scuffs they are still exceptionally clean and always in working order. Some of them even come with additional software like virus tools, streaming access, like Apple TV+, and much more. Of course, the best part is that you can get a premium and fully upgraded model for less, often with more storage, more power, and more features than you would when buying a base model brand new. You've got some great options from Lenovo, Acer, HP, Dell, Gateway, and even Apple to choose from. The cheapest models start around $120 and increase from there. The best way to know what's available is to head over and browse for yourself.
