Student laptop deals are everywhere we look right now, and that’s because most retailers are in full back-to-school sales mode. Whether you’re looking for a low-cost laptop with zero frills, or a souped-up Alienware setup for weekend gaming, there’s no shortage of options on the market. Sometimes though, we stumble across an exceptional markdown that elevates one sale above all others. And today, the honor belongs to Lenovo:

For a limited time, the company is selling the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 for only $624. That’s a whopping $895 discount, which is why Lenovo has declared this a doorbuster sale.

Why you should buy the Lenovo ThinkBook 16

Nestled smack-dab between entry-level laptops and flagship PCs, the ThinkBook 16 is packed with all the internals you’ll need for a fast and reliable high school or college computer. We’re talking an Intel Core i5-1335U CPU, 16GB of RAM, 512GB of storage, and Windows 11 Pro. From essay drafting to multimedia presentations, the ThinkBook 16 is designed to handle pretty much any scholarly workflow. 

Equipped with a 16-inch WUXGA IPS screen that delivers 300-nit peak brightness levels and a 60Hz refresh rate, the display’s anti-glare coating makes it easy to see in even the most brightly-lit classroom. HD movies and shows should look crisp, clear, and colorful, and the same goes for any PC gaming you plan on doing.

On a full charge, the ThinkBook 16 should provide a little over six hours of battery life. Other noteworthy features include a 1080p webcam, a built-in fingerprint reader, and several useful ports; including HDMI 2.1, USB-C, and an SD card reader. 

We’re not sure exactly how long Lenovo will be offering this discount for, so now is always the best time to buy. Save $895 when you order the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 directly through the manufacturer, and be sure to check out some of the other Lenovo laptop deals we found today! 

We also have a more general list of laptop deals, including markdowns from popular brands like Lenovo, Dell, and HP! While not all brands are created equal, these are definitely three of the best names in the PC business.

Best laptops for back to school 2026 featuring Apple 2026 MacBook Neo

A laptop is probably the one purchase that'll have the biggest impact on the school year. It'll be there for lectures, late-night assignments, group projects, Netflix binges, and everything in between. The trick is finding one that fits both the workload and the budget. After narrowing down the options, these are the five laptops I'd actually recommend for Back-to-School, whether the priority is getting the most value, joining the Apple ecosystem, or investing in a machine that'll comfortably last through graduation.

These are the compact printers I’d actually recommend for back-to-school
From dorm room paperwork to instant selfie prints, there's a tiny printer for every need.
Computer Hardware, Electronics, Hardware

Everything is digital until the one professor who still wants a printed essay, or the lease you need to sign in ink, or the photo you want to stick on your dorm room’s wall. That's usually the exact moment you remember you don't own a printer anymore, and the nearest one is a library machine with a line out the door.

I looked at four compact printers that solve that problem without taking over your desk and breaking the bank. Two are built for documents, one is a proper all-in-one for actual home office work, and one has nothing to do with homework and everything to do with turning your camera roll into something you can hold.

Shopping for back-to-school? These are the webcam lights I’d actually turn on before a Zoom call
From a budget clip light to a proper desk setup, there's a webcam light here for every price.
Head, Person, Face

Between online classes, group project calls, and the occasional job interview over Zoom, your webcam will be doing a lot more heavy lifting in school than it ever did at home. The problem is that most laptop cameras are bad in low light, and a single overhead bulb or a window behind you turns every call into a game of "wait, can you see me okay?"

A good webcam light fixes that faster than moving your whole desk around. I picked five, starting with the most affordable and working up to the one that's genuinely overkill for a Zoom call but still worth knowing about.
