Lenovo is one of the best laptop brands, so any sale will draw a lot of attention towards its laptops. Prices go as low as $415 for the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Chromebook with the Intel Core i3-N305 processor, Intel UHD Graphics, and 8GB of RAM, which is originally $550. Other interesting offers include a pair of 2-in-1 laptops — the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 with the AMD Ryzen 5 7530U processor, AMD Radeon Graphics, and 8GB of RAM for $520 instead of $740; and the Lenovo Yoga 6 with the AMD Ryzen 7 7730U processor, AMD Radeon Graphics, and 16GB of RAM for $770 instead of $1,100.

Gamers who want to upgrade their machines should check out the Lenovo LOQ Tower with the 13th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card, and 8GB of RAM if they’re on a budget, as it’s available for $585 , down from $1,030. However, there are more powerful options like the Lenovo Legion Tower 5i Gen 8, which is on sale for $1,170 from $1,650. It’s equipped with the 13th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card, and 16GB of RAM. However, if you prefer to roll with a gaming laptop, you can’t go wrong with the Lenovo Legion Slim 7i Gen 8. Powered by the 13th-generation Intel Core i7, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card, and 16GB of RAM, its original price of $1,820 has been slashed to $1,450 .

If you’re on the hunt for monitors, you can go for the cheap Lenovo 21.5-inch L22i-40 monitor, which is just $75 instead of $150; the best-selling Lenovo 23.8-inch ThinkVision T24i-30 monitor, which is only $299 instead of $229; or the Lenovo 34-inch G34w-30 gaming monitor for gamers, which is down to $360 from $450.

Lenovo’s New Year sale is packed with amazing offers, so there’s surely something for everyone among all the devices that had their prices slashed. You’re going to have to hurry with your decision on what to buy though, as these offers may expire at any moment. If you don’t want to miss out on the savings, it’s highly recommended that you complete your purchases as soon as you can — today, if possible, as tomorrow may already be too late.

Google Earth’s AI misadventure lasted only a day. It was a tale of dangerous ignorance.
Nuclear reactors, tanks, and historical destruction on a life-like satellite map? Yeah, that's bad.

Technology behemoths are clearly not reading the room, or they are just moving faster than they should when it comes to AI deployment. Google has already stuffed its Gemini AI in every corner of its software stack, from Android to daily productivity tools like Gmail that are used by hundreds of millions of users every day. AI is everywhere. Not all of it is bad, mind you. But in a few places, it just feels forced.

In its latest AI-fication experiment, the company targeted Google Earth. The idea was to let the audience use its Nano Banana 2 AI image generator and make images that can be placed on the map view. On paper, it's a cool idea. What would the Colosseum of Rome look like in your urban neighborhood? Yeah, fun stuff like that.

AMD is apparently gearing up to raise GPU prices right after Nvidia’s steep hike
AMD has reportedly told AIB partners about a price hike that goes into effect in. August.
AMD RX 7800

AMD is next in line to raise the asking price of its Radeon GPUs, merely days after the news of a similar hike coming for Nvidia graphics cards started making waves. As per ChannelGate on Weibo (h/t VideoCardz), AMD has informed its board partners that the price of GPU and memory bundles will go up by at least 10% in August.

Is a similar price hike coming for standalone graphics cards? I won't be surprised if that happens. The situation is so bad that AMD is planning to bring back graphics cards with 4GB of onboard memory. AMD just introduced the RX 9050 GPU, which costs $279. Notably, it's just $20 less than the RX 9060 XT that offers double the graphics memory.

Microsoft will make Windows work well with just 8GB RAM. We desperately need it
The dream of a reliable and affordable Windows laptop hinges on the next milestone at Microsoft.

The year 2026 has marked a huge course correction for Microsoft after years of frustrating users with plenty of confusing processes, unoptimized UI elements, and just the generous bloatware that can bring any Windows system to a crawl. Microsoft has finally shifted into a new phase. From fixing the right-click behavior to speeding up the Search system, the company has fixed plenty of papercuts.

The next major milestone is making Windows 11 run smoothly on Windows PCs with just 8GB of RAM. That directly means entry-level and budget laptops will at least get the basics right, even if that means sacrificing the on-device AI bells and whistles. Let's face it. The increasingly AI-first approach to computing on a Windows 11 machine is a little too taxing on the hardware at hand.
