The absolute best Black Friday laptop deals

We've tirelessly sorted through the UK's Black Friday laptop deals to find the laptop bargains you'll want to take home for Christmas As the imported retail madness of Black Friday dealscontinues to consume the UK, WIRED has hand-picked the best laptop deals you'll find online.

From budget laptops with a decent processor to monstrously powerful gaming and workstation systems that could take on any desktop for power, our Black Friday deals list has you sorted.

What is it? Weighing just under 1kg, with a width of 1.4cm, the exceedingly slim Zenbook is the perfect travel companion for those who need to pack light. Despite its compact dimensions, it has a specification that'll handle any desktop task you care to throw at it, with an Intel Core i5-8250U CPU, 8GB RAM and a 256 GB SSD. How much are you saving? Asus's stunning 13.3in ultraportable – available from Amazon in its very attractive royal blue colour variant – is good value at the best of times, but that £200 discount taking it down to £700 makes this one of the best deals we've ever seen on this spec. What is it? A Chromebook makes a great laptop for a child and the 11.6-inch Asus C202SA has a 10-hour battery life and will get the job done nicely. It won't play Fortnite (if that's what you need, look elsewhere), but it's perfect for homework and browsing the internet.

How good is the deal? It's not quite as good as the Amazon website suggests, but it's still a solid £40 saving at £129.
