This Budget HP Laptop Just Dropped to Its Lowest Price Yet

Best Buy is having a 24-hour flash sale (ends Wednesday at 1 a.m. ET) featuring the AMD Ryzen 7 HP Envy x360 for the lowest price it’s been over the last four months, according to Honey’s price history. If you’re reading this past the deadline, worry not: Best Buy also has the AMD Ryzen 5 HP Envy x360 for a similar discount, bringing it down to its second lowest price over the past four months, according to Honey’s price history. And that deal is not likely to expire any time soon.

One of the best budget laptops of 2023

Budget laptops already offer the best bang for your buck, but a great sale price makes them even more appealing for the cost-conscious. And that’s what you get with the HP Envy x360 2-in-1 laptop hybrid, which is one of the best budget laptops of 2023, according to our tech writer Joshua Hawkins.

You can currently get the HP Envy x360 from Best Buy with the following specs:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7530U/Ryzen 7 7730U

• GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics

• RAM: 8GB/16GB

• Storage: 256GB/512GB

• Display: 15.6-inch, 1920 x 1080, 60Hz IPS, touch-enabled

• Dimensions: 14.13 x 9.02 x 0.73 inches

• Weight: 4.04 pounds

The AMD Ryzen 7 HP Envy x360 is currently $599.99 (originally $1,049.99) after a $450 discount. This is the more powerful option of the two, with more processing power, RAM, and storage. For just $100 more, you can take your laptop from a mid-tier processor and RAM handling regular tasks to be able to handle demanding tasks like advanced gaming and multimedia creation. If you would rather save yourself the $100 and just use your laptop to read emails and write documents, the AMD Ryzen 5 HP Envy x360 is a better fit and goes for $499 (originally $799.99).

You’ll get a premium feel and design with the HP Envy x360, fast Wi-Fi 6E wireless connectivity, an excellent 1440p webcam, a facial recognition IR camera for quick logins, and a 55Wh battery, which gives you about eight hours of light use. The laptop is portable, with a spacious keyboard and responsive touchpad. And, of course, it can also work as a tablet with a stylus (sold separately). You can read the whole PCMag review here.
