Many of the better laptop discounts we saw on Black Friday are still available today.

While most Cyber Monday sales are just extensions of discounts from Black Friday, they still present a good opportunity to grab a solid notebook at a decent price. To help you avoid wasting cash, we've researched reviews, checked price histories and rounded up a few Cyber Monday laptop deals that are genuinely cheaper than usual.

The offers still bring several notebooks we've tested and recommended down to (or at least close to) their best prices to date. Apple's latest MacBook Air is available for a low of $844, for one, while the newest Microsoft Surface Laptop is $300 off. The top recommendation in our Chromebook buying guide is on sale as well, as is our pick for the best Windows notebook for those on a budget.

We'll update this post if prices change and more deals pop up over the rest of the day. Just keep in mind that many of the deals below are for pre-configured models; if you want to spec out your machine more precisely, it's worth buying directly from a manufacturer. You're also more likely to run into longer shipping times than we saw last week.
