Best Buy's latest cheap laptop deals have dropped the 14-inch Asus down to just $149.99 this week (was $349.99), with an excellent $200 discount on the budget machine. You're getting an entry-level laptop for a stunning price here - one we rarely see outside of larger sales events - but you'll have to move fast. This offer will expire at midnight tonight. 

Considering the Intel N4500 CPU and 128GB of storage space under the hood, you're getting some strong value for money here - something that can't be taken for granted from cheap laptops. With Prime Day laptop deals firmly on the horizon, though, we're already seeing retailers offering larger and larger discounts on budget machines. Still, other stores can't quite keep up with this particular offer. Dell's cheapest laptop still sits at $249.99, for example, and holds a weaker processor. 

If you're after something a little more powerful, though, we'd recommend checking out this $120 discount on a 14-inch HP instead. You're getting a solid mid-range spec for just $309.99 with this offer (was $429.99), including 8GB RAM and a Ryzen 3 processor. 

You'll find more information about this offer just below, and plenty more cheap laptop deals further down the page.

Save $200 - If you're after a budget everyday laptop for browsing the web, streaming, and catching up on email, look no further than this $200 discount on the 14-inch Asus. You're getting an Intel N4500 processor under the hood, with 4GB RAM, and 128GB of storage - great specs for this bargain price point.

Save $80 - It's a smaller saving, but you're still picking up this 14-inch HP for well under $200 in Best Buy's latest laptop deals. If the above offer is still available we'd recommend opting for Acer, as this model only has 64GB of storage, but it's still an excellent second option at a price we rarely see outside of major sales events.

Save $250 - If you're after something a little more flexible, Best Buy can also save you $250 on this Acer Chromebook Spin 514. That means you're getting a 2-in-1 convertible laptop for just under $250 - and considering there's a Ryzen 3 processor under the hood that's a solid offer. You are, however, still picking up an entry-level 4GB RAM / 64GB memory and storage configuration.

Save $120 - This HP laptop offers a spec that sits just at the top of the entry-level band; with 8GB RAM and a speedy 128GB SSD (rather than the slower eMMC storage offered in cheaper models). You're saving $120 here and picking up a machine that will be able to handle far more multi-tasking and demanding programs for a great price.
