The start of the school year isn’t too far away, so now is a good a time as ever to scope out awesome deals to get you through the year and stock up on dorm gear. If you’re on the lookout for a functional laptop, Amazon has a deal on the

HP 2019 HD 15.6-inch Touchscreen Flagship Premium Laptop

that brings its typical list price of $1,199 down to $588. With a 51% price cut, you can use the $611 you get in savings for other things that you may need or want to make this school year a game-changer.

The HP brand has been known to deliver reliable laptops that are not so heavy on the pockets for years now. The HP 2019 HD 15.6 touchscreen is no different as it remains to be a competent portable computer that students can take advantage of for basic productivity work. With an Intel Core i5 processor with 8GB of RAM, writing papers, video or photo editing, and performing research should come off like a breeze. Although this may not have all the glitz and glamor a gaming laptop would have, this laptop has enough power in it for light gaming in your downtime.

The WLED-backlit touchscreen is energy efficient with a multitouch capacity that can detect up to 10 discrete touchpoints. When it comes to the display, the 15.6-inch screen has an Intel HD Graphics 620 and a resolution of 1,366 x 768 combine to produce excellent picture quality for web browsing, or streaming multimedia content.

This laptop entails a lot of versatility with a 2TB hard disk drive (HDD) to store your collection of photos, music, documents, and other files. The HP 2019 Touchscreen Flagship Laptop is able to support various media formats with a memory card reader,  and (an almost extinct) DVDRW drive. Backing-up your work could be a lot easier and quicker with more than one way to do it. This premium laptop comes with two USB 3.1 ports, one USB 2.0, HDMI, headphone/microphone jack, and an ethernet port. Wireless connectivity is even possible through Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

The

runs with the preinstalled Windows 10 Operating System. The three-cell lithium-ion battery can stretch battery life to last around 11.25 hours which could give you more than enough time to do your work and a little more to simply enjoy it. It may not reign supreme compared to other more feature-packed laptops, but with Amazon slashing the price by 51%, you get a functional laptop at a friendlier price of $588.

There are a lot of Cyber Monday Dell laptop deals, Cyber Monday Best Buy laptop deals, and Cyber Monday gaming laptop deals to shop. Here, we've narrowed it down to just the best 17-inch laptop deals, which make a great laptop option if you prefer some screen real estate.

The 11-inch iPad Pro M2 sold out, but you can get the iPad Pro M4 for the same price
iPad Pro with M2 inside.

If you've been looking forward to the arrival of this year's Cyber Monday Apple deals. it's time to get excited. There are some excellent deals. Best Buy was offering the Wi-Fi + Cellular model of the 11-inch Apple iPad Pro M2 for only $1,099, following a $1,000 discount that nearly halved the tablet's original price of $2,099. But since there's always high demand for savings on Apple's iPad from Cyber Monday deals, that offer is sold out. Don't panic, though. Best Buy also has the 11-inch Apple iPad Pro with M4 Chip for the same price -- $1,099. It's only a savings of $100, down from $1,199, but that's still a fantastic price. We highly recommend shopping this deal before it sells out too.

 
Why you should buy the 11-inch Apple iPad Pro M4 instead
The Apple iPad Pro M2 wasn't the latest version of the powerful tablet -- that distinction goes to the Apple iPad Pro M4, yet both have rightfully taken their place in our list of the best iPads as the best premium option. Since the first deal on the M2 model sold out, you're getting the best of the best right now for the same price, anyway.

As you might have noticed, the Cyber Monday deals have arrived. One of our favorite deals features a discount on the Apple Watch Series 10. It's down to $329 (instead of $399) - saving you $70 for Cyber Monday. That's the lowest price it has ever been on Amazon, so if you’ve been waiting to treat yourself to the latest Apple Watch, this is a great time. It’s one of the best Cyber Monday smartwatch deals still around. Hurry, though, we don't know for how long.

 
Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
As our Apple Watch Series 10 review explains, “the Apple Watch Series 10 is another strong entry in the Apple Watch family, and a (mostly) easy recommendation”. It has a new, thinner design than previous Apple Watches, along with a subtle but welcome screen upgrade. It also has a new speaker and improved charging speed, so it’s a good upgrade for existing Apple Watch owners.
