This Dell laptop deal didn’t show up on Black Friday itself which makes it even more surprising that it showed up on Saturday morning, between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, as an Amazon exclusive that you won’t find on Dell’s own website.The configuration includes a 13th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, 32GB of DDR4 RAM, a large 1TB PCIe SSD and a 15.6-inch Full HD touchscreen display. Dell’s list price is a little high at $2,999 but Amazon has cut it down to $899, which is a huge 70% off. This deal makes the Dell laptop one of the best laptop deals available during this long Black Friday shopping period.

The Intel Core i7-1355U processor has a hybrid architecture with 10 cores split between performance and efficiency cores which lets the laptop intelligently divide tasks based on what you’re doing. The chip speeds up to 5.0GHz when you need the best performance for tasks that require a lot of power and the efficiency cores take care of background tasks and light tasks without using up the battery.With 32GB of DDR4 RAM, you can keep dozens of browser tabs open along with several productivity apps, video conferencing software and background services without the stuttering or lag that happens on systems with 8GB of RAM for instance. If you work with big datasets, run virtual machines for testing, or switch between memory-hungry apps often during the day, you need this much memory.The PCIe NVMe SSD has a storage capacity of 1TB and read speeds of about 3,500 MB/s which means that boot times and application launches happen almost instantly so you barely have time to move your mouse where you need it. The SSD’s speed is most noticeable when working with big files and for example, moving gigabytes of data or opening huge spreadsheets takes seconds instead of minutes.The 15.6-inch touchscreen has a Full HD resolution of 1920×1080 and uses WVA panel technology to keep colors and contrast true even when viewed from sharp angles. This is important for client presentations or group work sessions where more than one person needs to see the screen. The anti-glare coating cuts down on reflections from windows or lights above so you can use the display in bright offices or coffee shops with big windows. Touch responsiveness feels right and instant so you can easily use Windows 11’s touch-friendly interface, add notes to documents, or quickly choose items without having to reach for the trackpad.Intel UHD Graphics does a good job with everyday visual tasks and light creative work but it won’t be able to replace a dedicated GPU for serious gaming or professional 3D modeling. The built-in graphics can play 4K video smoothly and can connect to external displays through the HDMI port. This is useful when you need to show something to clients or add a second monitor to your workspace.There are a lot of ways to connect to the internet, including both new and old ports that work with both new and old peripherals: The USB-C port can send data and show videos, and the USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports can handle flash drives, mice, and external hard drives at high speeds. The SD card reader is very useful for photographers or anyone who often moves files from cameras or other devices because it means they don’t have to carry around extra adapters.Windows 11 Pro has features that home editions don’t like BitLockerencryption to keep private data safe, Remote Desktop to access your laptop from other places, and Hyper-V to run virtual machines. The Copilot AI that comes with the software can help you write emails, summarize documents, come up with new ideas, and automate tasks that you do over and over again.At $899, you’re getting a laptop with specs that would normally cost $1,500 to $1,800 from big companies, even when they’re on sale.
