If you want to buy your child a laptop for the new school year, you’re going to want to check out the last-minute back to school laptop deals that are still available. Here’s one that’s also among the few remaining Labor Day laptop deals — the HP Laptop 17t only $430 from HP, following a $370 discount on the device’s original price of $800. The hours are counting down to the end of this bargain though, so if you want to take advantage of the offer, you’ll have to do it today.

Why you should buy the HP Laptop 17t

The first thing you’ll notice about the HP Laptop 17t is its relatively large screen. At 17.3 inches with Full HD resolution for vivid colors and sharp details, this display is perfect for working on multimedia projects and building presentations. The size makes the laptop less portable, but it makes up for that with its manageable weight of just 4.6 pounds. Your child can slide it into their backpack as they travel to school and move between classrooms.

Inside the HP Laptop 17t are the Intel Core i5 120U processor, integrated Intel Graphics, and 8GB of RAM. These specifications won’t challenge the best laptops, but they’re more than enough to help students efficiently finish their tasks. The laptop also comes with a 256GB SSD, which should provide enough storage space for all the files of the school year, and Windows 11 Home pre-loaded for an operating system that will be familiar to most students. The HP Laptop 17t also features the HP True Vision 720p HD camera with dual-array digital microphones, for clear video and audio when joining online classes.

If you child needs a new laptop for schoolwork, the HP Laptop 17t is an excellent choice, especially now that it’s available from HP at $370 off. From its sticker price of $800, it’s down to nearly half-price at $430, but not for long. As a last-minute offer for the back-to-school season and a holdover from this year’s Labor Day sales, there’s not much time remaining before the discount expires. Buy the HP Laptop 17t as soon as you can, as you may regret not finalizing the transaction while it’s much cheaper than usual.

If you've ever owned an Exynos-powered Galaxy phone, you already know the drill: heavy tasks like capturing back-to-back pictures or photos for a while, heavy gaming, or rendering videos turn your device into a hand warmer. 

In such a situation, the battery bar drops faster than usual as well. Turns out, Samsung might be working on the fix, and it's coming in a way nobody expected.

Buying a monitor? This Mac app can expose problems before the return window closes
Your new monitor may look perfect, but it doesn't hurt to double check.
Screen Test v1.1

Making a brand-new tech purchase doesn't always carry the guarantee of a perfectly functioning unit. But a tiny Mac app called Screen Test can help you find a defect before it gets too late. Screen Test (version 1.1) is a native macOS utility containing more than 25 patterns and diagnostic tools for evaluating built-in and external displays. It can help reveal dead or stuck pixels, backlight bleeding, and other issues. The app works completely offline, so you don't have to rely on browser tabs or an internet connection.
