Huge Dell Memorial Day Deals: Save Hundreds on Laptops and Desktops

Since 1984, Dell has been dominating the prebuilt PC and accessory market by making hardware that keeps up with modern needs at reasonable prices. Its desktops and laptops are consistently good value and review well when we put them through our benchmarking process in the PC Labs. If you’re in the market for a new machine, Dell has launched its Memorial Day sale. Here are six of the top offers we’ve found, with more to come.

Dell Laptop Deals

Insiprons are Dell’s reliable midrange performers, and the 16 on sale right now is well worth your attention if you want a bigger screen in a nice-looking chassis. With a FHD+ touch-enabled display, it works great for streaming media, lightweight creative tasks, business and more. If you do a lot of videoconferencing, the 1080p 30 fps webcam is better than you’d expect from a budget machine, and there are plenty of ports.

Another midrange productivity laptop from Dell, the XPS 14 does enough well to be worth your attention at a $400 price drop. We reviewed this model, noting that it had one of the better touchpads we’d seen on Dell portables, coupled with a LED-illuminated function row that made it a solid choice for spreadsheeters and other heavy keyboard users. The component loadout is good for the price, with 16GB of RAM making multi-tasking smooth and stable. The battery is also massive, adding to its weight but making it a worthwhile option for long trips and other scenarios where you won’t have access to a power plug.

Dell Gaming Laptop Deals

It’s a spendy one but, for all-around performance, the Alienware x16 R2 is a tough gaming portable to beat. That’s especially true when it’s kitted out with an RTX 4090 graphics card. In our review, we praised the incredible amount of tech in this slim machine, including the gorgeous QHD+ 240Hz display, which is capable of keeping up with the blistering framerate that GPU can pump out. The rest of the silicon is no slouch, with a speedy Core Ultra 9 processor coupled with 32GB of system memory. Customizable RGB keys, touchpad, and chassis lighting adds an extra touch of style, and slicing $900 off makes it tempting.

For a more affordable gaming on the go option, Dell’s G15 is a solid choice, especially at $300 off retail during their Memorial Day sale. We reviewed this laptop, and although its component loadout didn’t dazzle, praised its 120Hz display and fun color options. It feels solid in the hands, weighing in at a little over six pounds, and the keyboard and trackpad both have good responsiveness, along with orange LED backlights for the keys. As you’d expect from a gaming machine, it has plenty of ports for your peripherals as well.

Dell Desktop Deals

Dell’s enterprise-oriented towers aren’t visually striking, but there’s a reason you can find them in homes and offices around the world. They combine solid performance with well-built components at a nice price, and are flexible enough to fill a bunch of different roles. The Slim desktop is designed for minimal footprint while not compromising power, and this configuration ships with a capable Intel Core Ultra 5 processor along with 16GB of RAM. It multitasks well, has plenty of ports, and ships with a keyboard and mouse.

If you need a new gaming machine to get you through the lean years ahead, we’re quite fond of the Alienware Aurora R16. In our review, we gave it an Editors’ Choice award, with tester Charles Jefferies saying that the redesigned tower “marks a new chapter for the Alienware brand” thanks to its whisper-quiet operation, capacious and easily modified case and multiple connectivity options. Dell has a bunch of different configurations on sale during the Memorial Day event, but this is a nice midrange choice with a generous 32GB of RAM paired with a RTX 4060 graphics card.

We’re finding Memorial Day Deals everywhere, from retailers like Amazon and Walmart to top brands like Apple and HP. And don’t forget to check out all of the Memorial Day Deals Under $100 and Under $50.
