The official Dell Store is hosting a ‘Top Tech Event’ this week, which can only mean price cuts on the brand’s excellent line-up of Windows laptops. In fact, discounts of up to $500 are available right now, should you be on the lookout for a new machine.

I’ve been busy scanning through the retailer’s store pages today, and I’ve spotted five machines that I think are particularly good value. While there are a lot of laptops on sale today, these are the ones that I’d buy with my own cash personally.

First up is the Dell 15 Laptop for $499 (was $699) – an obvious choice if you need something for just the basics. The Core 3 chipset and 8GB of RAM will be good for browser-based tasks, and the 512GB SSD has a decent amount of space, too. While not a world-beater by any stretch, I could see this one being a great everyday option if you don’t want to spend too much.

For more serious workloads, I’d recommend this Dell 16 Laptop for $949 (was $1,149). It not only features 16GB of RAM, but you also get a powerful Ryzen 7 chipset for good measure, which means it’s a seriously capable laptop. Personally, this is the one I’d go for if I were buying a work laptop for myself.

You can read more about these laptops and my other selections just below. Note that the Top Tech Event will run through October 12th, and you’ll also get 2x back in Dell’s rewards program as part of the sale.
