    the Asus ROG Flow Z13

    Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale is happening from March 25-31. The event is themed around seasonal goodies like spring cleaning supplies, outdoor gear, and warm-weather apparel. But in the past, we’ve also seen it prompt some great deals on tech — including laptops.

    So far, the bulk of Amazon’s best pre-sale computer deals involve MacBooks, MacBooks, and more MacBooks. Almost every configuration from the past two years is on sale, if it’s still in stock, with the biggest price cuts going to 2025’s M4 MacBook Airs. They’re all $200 to $300 off, making them significantly cheaper than their iterative M5 replacements, which Apple announced earlier this month. (Those are also on sale already, but only for about $50 off.) A couple of configurations are sitting at record-low prices.

    Things are a little less exciting on the Windows laptop side. I managed to find a powerful Asus gaming convertible on sale for $330 off, which is its biggest discount ever; that’s the only one I would add to my cart now. A handful of Microsoft Surface Laptop 7s are up to 26% off, but since all of them have been much cheaper before, I’d wait to see if their prices drop further once the sale starts next week.

    As a reminder, I don’t endorse buying laptops from any third-party sellers on Amazon. (The bulk of its laptop listings comes from them.) They can have different customer service policies than Amazon itself, and they might be advertising misleading specs. This isn’t to say they’re all scammers doing something illegal, and Amazon has a guarantee that covers delivery or item condition issues. Still, I wouldn’t take a chance on a big purchase like a new laptop. The Shipper/Seller should be “Amazon.com” (below the orange “Buy Now” button).

    I would also recommend shopping around a bit at other retailers, especially Best Buy. It has a much better selection of Windows laptops than Amazon, and its pricing is competitive where their inventories overlap.

    Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a record-low price.

    Why we like it

    The 2025 MacBook Air is basically identical to its successor, save for its wireless chip and processor. (You’re not missing out on much there: In our performance tests, the M4 version was only about six percent slower than the M5 model in both single- and multi-core workloads — you won’t feel that in practice.) It features a vibrant Liquid Retina display, a backlit keyboard, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, and a 12MP webcam with Center Stage support. This 15-inch configuration is well future-proofed with plenty of RAM, and it’s never been cheaper.

    Why we like it

    The Asus ROG Flow Z13 is a zippy gaming convertible with a detachable keyboard and a slick 180Hz display — GTA V‘s Ned Luke is a fan. This configuration is powered by a high-end AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 chip with integrated graphics that performed on par with an RTX 4060 GPU when we tested it in another Asus laptop. Amazon has it marked down to $2,069.99, which is 14% off its MSRP and its best deal to date. (Ignore Amazon’s deflated list price; it actually retails for $2,399.99, according to Asus’ website.) It also comes with a free PC download code for Crimson Desert, Pearl Abyss’ huge new fantasy-action adventure game.

    This ROG Flow Z13 deal is price-matched at Best Buy, but it doesn’t include the Crimson Desertcode there.
