Grab one of these discounted Dell laptops and get a free $200 Visa prepaid card

Dell remains one of the longest-standing titans in the PC market, and not without reason: From budget-minded work machines to high-end gaming computers, Dell has something for everyone. Its online store has also been running some pretty great sales and discounts this summer, too.

If you missed the chance to score one of those laptop deals during last month’s July 4 or Amazon Prime sales (and you don’t want to wait until Black Friday this fall), Dell is still offering some nice price cuts right now on a few of its top-rated laptops, plus a free $200 prepaid Visa card with your purchase. We picked out our top two favorites below.

Dell’s sleek XPS 13 laptop has long been, and still remains, one of our favorite featherweight Windows machines. Dell has continued to refine the design over the years, so it doesn’t look like the XPS 13 is going to fall off that list any time soon, and with a new model rolled out earlier this year, the 2018 version is an excellent buy right now. Along with its superb 13-inch 4K touch display and world-class build quality, this laptop comes with an eighth-generation Intel i7 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD which deliver a fantastic performance.

These premium ultrabooks can get a little pricey, so deals like this are always nice: Dell has this 2018 XPS 13 model marked down to $1,250 at the moment, saving you $350 and giving you a $200 prepaid Visa card on top of that to sweeten the deal. This offers you a combined savings of $550 on one of the best Windows laptops money can buy.

Alienware m15 Gaming Laptop

Alienware m15 Review

Dell offers some pretty solid midrange gaming laptops under its own brand, but many people may not know that Dell is also the name behind the high-end Alienware PCs. The Alienware m15 could be called the workhorse of the line with its 15.6-inch Full HD display hitting the sweet spot in size for a gaming machine that’s still reasonable to carry around. This updated model also boasts a newer ninth-generation Intel i7-9750H six-core CPU, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, a 512GB SSD, and a beefy GeForce RTX 2060 GPU (one of Nvidia’s latest graphics cards), which are capable of delivering plenty of power for running newer games for years to come.

The Alienware line represents the cream of the Dell crop so these laptops are naturally expensive, but a $380 discount knocks the 2019 Alienware m15 down to $1,700. After the $200 prepaid Visa card, this deal effectively lets you score this super-charged gaming laptop for just $1,500.

Work, school, play: Here’s what I love most about Dell’s 2-in-1 laptop — $200 off
Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 7420 front angled view with keyboard folded under and showing display.

 

Sometimes, you need a proper laptop with a keyboard, mouse, and a traditional screen. Other times, it works better to have a tablet, with a viable touchscreen to navigate. For example, if I'm typing up a meaty article or report then I want that keyboard. But if I'm waiting some time at the airport, kicking back trying to watch a show or movie, then I want the tablet format. The best part about a 2-in-1 laptop is you get all of that in a single package. You can unfold normally like a laptop, or fold it backward -- convertible style -- to set the computer up like a tablet. You can also do a bunch of other configurations, like standing up the system to prop it up and keep your hands free. Most 2-in-1 laptops are pretty expensive, though. You can find many of these versatile devices in student laptop deals and back to school laptop deals, of course.

If you’re keen to learn more, read on and we’ll take you through what each model has to offer and who it's a good fit for.
Dell Inspiron 15 -- $280, was $330

With Dell being one of the best laptop brands out there, even its budget offerings are worth considering. With the Dell Inspiron 15, you get all the basic essentials needed for working on the move, as long as it isn’t anything too demanding. This particular model has a 12th-generation Intel Core i3-1215U processor along with 8GB of memory and 256GB of SSD storage. None of that is particularly impressive. You may find yourself needing to use cloud storage to supplement your storage, and it could use a RAM upgrade. However, this is a super cheap laptop. It also has a surprisingly good screen for the price. It has a 15.6-inch full HD display with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 250 nits of brightness, and narrow borders. That and its roomy keycaps and spacious touchpad ensure this laptop is good for basic needs.

Snag an Alienware RTX 4090 laptop with this $600 discount
The Alienware m18 R2 gaming laptop with Baldur's Gate 3 on the screen.

If you're looking to grab a new gaming laptop, then one of the most well-known brands is Alienware, and it's fair to say that it has some of the best you can find on the market. In fact, if you're looking for the best money can buy, it will be hard to beat this configuration of the Alienware m18 R2, which comes with a whopping RTX 4090 mobile. Of course, getting the best of the best is going to be pricey, which is why we're happy to see this deal from Dell that knocks it down to $3,200 from the original $3,800, which is still quite pricey, but the $600 discount is well worth it.

Why you should buy the Alienware m18 R2
This configuration of the Alienware m18 R2 comes with an RTX 4090 mobile, although it is worth mentioning that mobile GPUs tend to be a step down from the desktop versions, so this is closer to the performance of an RTX 4080. Even so, that's still a powerful card, especially since this laptop runs an 18-inch QHD resolution, while the RTX 4080 is close to a 4K GPU, so you'll easily hit 60-80fps with the highest graphical settings on the latest games. Interestingly, the screen can go up to 165Hz refresh rate, so if you want to prioritize that for things like competitive games, you can absolutely do that, too.
