Presidents’ Day Dell Deals: XPS, G16, monitors and more on sale

Presidents’ Day is a nice three-day reprieve from work, and it’s also a nice excuse to do some shopping. And Dell is certainly ready, with business laptops, monitors, and more discounted on their website and across Amazon. We’ve picked out our favorite deals, largely from the best Dell products out there — and products we’ve personally reviewed or have hands-on experiences with. Here, we present that list to you so you can get some of the best laptop deals and monitor deals around. Remember that as these deals are coming out around the Presidents’ Day holiday (though not all of them have explicit “Presidents’ Day” markings) they very well might end soon, so plan your purchases accordingly.

This sleek monitor with a modern look has integrated speakers, a 100Hz refresh rate, and a 4-star TÜV Rheinland eye comfort rating. The 24-inch Dell S2425HS is a great second monitor for your home office or second study. You won’t find many monitor deals with a price lower than the starting price of $140 that this one sports, much less the reduced $110.

Dell 27 USB-C Monitor — $220 $260 15% off

Dell’s USB-C monitors make switching between a laptop and your desktop snappy, are easy on the eyes, and look great on your desk. In fact, a monitor in this series is being used in the creation of this very article. Get one for yourself at a price point cheaper than this writer paid while it is just $220.

Inspiron 15 Laptop — $250 $380 34% off

Sometimes you need a powerful laptop that you can take with you and do complex computations, coding, and gaming on the fly. Other times you need a laptop that works, isn’t so expensive that it getting stolen or having your café coffee spilled on it will ruin your day completely. This affordable Dell laptop is in the second category, and even includes a nice numpad if you’re using Excel or working with numbers. You’ll enjoy its 120Hz, anti-glare screen, too, as you watch video and read your homework, etc. It’s hard to find laptops with a full keyboard at this price.

Dell G16 Gaming Laptop — $1,000 $1,300 23% off

Dell’s G16 gaming laptop is one of the best gaming laptops you can buy from Dell outside of their Alienware gaming-specific sub-brand, and this is especially true if you prioritize value. For just $1,000 you can get an RTX 4060 laptop GPU, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and way more power than you’ll need for Balatro or any other game you might find yourself wanting to play on a laptop.

Dell Latitude 5540 Laptop — $1,259 $2,046 38% off

Considered to be the best Dell laptops for business, the Dell Latitude 5540 is praised for its all day battery life (around 11 hours), mid-point pricing, and security features like automatic dimming when you look away and notifications in case of an onlooker taking a peek at the screen in the coffee shop. With a savings of more than $780, this is a great time to pick one up.

Dell XPS Desktop — $1,300 $1,700 24% off

The Dell XPS Desktop is a solid choice of desktop for those that want a pre-built desktop computer — it has a solid design, isn’t bedecked in awkwardly bright RGB lights, and has easily accessible ports. Before purchasing this, be sure to check out our Dell XPS Desktop 8960 review, but keep in mind that some of the components are different on the configuration being sold. The version being sold for just $1,300 today has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti graphics card, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. Still, you’ll have a very similar experience in regards to the overall review, which praises the machine’s minimal bloatware and performance.

Dell XPS 14 Laptop — $1,700 $2,000 15% off

The Dell XPS line of laptops is known for their unique and comfy keyboards, sleek designs, and overall hardcore power. Whether it outright said or not, it is obvious they are gunning to be MacBook alternatives for those of us not deeply embedded into the Apple ecosystem. And, well, the Dell XPS 14 is no different, becoming one of the last XPS laptops ever. Our Dell XPS 14 review features a laptop nearly identical to the one on sale here, though it talks a bit more about the OLED screen version. The bottom line: Get this laptop for a super powerful notebook PC with a premium keyboard, all at just $1,700 while this deal lasts.

Dell XPS 16 OLED Laptop — $2,550 $3,050 16% off

Dell’s XPS 16 is the top of the line in the classic and soon to be retired Dell XPS line of laptops. The configuration on sale for 16% off features an RTX 4060 GPU, 32GB of RAM, 1TB of SSD storage and an anti-reflect, anti-smudge UHD+ OLED touchscreen. Check out our Dell XPS 16 review to see the finer details or our comparison of the Dell XPS 14 vs Dell XPS 16 to see which version you should ultimately nab up.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 16 laptop
The Dell XPS 16, which is now the largest model in the popular line of laptops following the retirement of the Dell XPS 17 with last year's Dell XPS reset, scored a rating of 3.5 stars out of 5 stars in our review. We described it as "one of the most beautiful and powerful laptops you can buy," and at first glance, it's easy to see why. The device's ultramodern aesthetic is very attractive, with insanely thin bezels surrounding its 16.3-inch Full HD+ screen, a hidden haptic touchpad, a zero-lattice keyboard, and LED touch function keys.
