This year, Prime Day starts on July 11 and runs until the end of July 12. This is a great time to snag some discounted peripherals to complete your PC setup. Whether you’re shopping to build a home office around a new laptop or expanding your gaming rig with a Prime Day deal on a new CPU or GPU, you’ll find deep discounts on the devices you want for Prime Day.

One of our favorite Wi-Fi routers is on sale for Prime Day, the Gryphon AX, which is $40 off with this time-limited deal. This router doesn't promise to be the fastest or the best range, instead, it promises one thing -- safety, with a focus on parental controls and internet safety tools.

]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2023 00:40:27 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/gryphon-wifi-router-prime-day-2023-deals/ Although Intel's 13th-generation CPUs are a good bargain, they're nothing compared to 12th-generation chips now that they're on sale. While the Core i5-12600K is enjoying a pretty good Prime Day discount at $180, along with many other good CPU deals, an even better deal might be for the Core i7-12700KF, the 12600K's bigger brother. It comes with two extra P-cores, and with a $60 discount, it's now a surprisingly cheap CPU for both gaming and productivity.

]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2023 00:20:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/save-intel-core-i7-12700kf-gaming-cpu-prime-day/ Logitech has been a staple in the PC accessory space for many years, with the legendary C920 webcam sitting atop many monitors around the world. The Logitech StreamCam is a substantial upgrade with 60 FPS capture, autofocus, auto exposure, and a new robust mount. It competes with the likes of the Elgato Facecam and Anker PowerConf C300 and is one of the best webcams you can buy. At just $130, the Logitech StreamCam is a whopping $40 off its regular price this Prime Day, which makes it a steal for those who want to invest in a high-quality webcam.

]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2023 00:10:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/logitech-streamcam-deal-prime-day/ Samsung is a staple when it comes to high-performance SSDs, and the Samsung 980 PCIe M.2 SSD is a brilliant storage drive. It’s currently the cheapest that it’s ever been, and this Prime Day deal is perfect for those looking to either build a new computer or upgrade their internal storage. The Samsung 980 comes in several different capacities, but the 500GB model is now under $30, making it an absolute steal.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:51:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-980-deal-prime-day-2023/ If you're someone that frequently uses a webcam for work calls or just for casually catching up with your friends and family over video, then you might want to consider picking up a high-quality webcam. There are tons of basic webcams that'll get the job done for you, but not many do it quite as well as Anker's PowerConf C200. It's one of those webcams that goes above and beyond to improve your overall video calling experience, and you can snag one at its lowest price during the Prime Day sale. It's down to $48 from its usual price of $60 on Amazon, making it one of the best Prime Day accessories for your PC.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:51:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/anker-powerconf-c200-2k-webcam-deal/ Although Ryzen 5000 CPUs are often reserved for low-end and midrange PCs since the AM4 platform is so old, there's one 5000 series chip you might want to use even in a high-end PC: the 5800X3D. The original Ryzen CPU with 3D V-Cache is still pretty good for playing video games, and for Prime Day, you can get one for just $280, which is a $170 discount.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:41:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d-prime-day-discount/ It's no secret that the latest RTX 40 and RX 7000 series aren't exactly the best-value GPUs we've ever seen. Although they deliver better performance at lower power levels and have new features, they have a potent competitor: old GPUs, specifically the RX 6000 series. 6000 series cards have been going on sale for a while, but Prime Day is bringing deals that almost never happen, if ever.

That’s why this humble yet practical laptop stand from Omoton deserves a special shout-out this Amazon Prime Day.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:20:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/omoton-laptop-stand-prime-day-deal/ Amazon Prime Day is the perfect time to shop, and no matter what you're looking for, you're bound to find some excellent promotions and deals during the limited-time sales event.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 23:10:20 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/lg-gaming-monitors-prime-day-deal/ If you're building a desktop with top-end parts, you're going to need a big power supply. Even the best mainstream CPUs and GPUs can each hit 300 watts or more, and super fast workstation CPUs can bump that up to 400. The thing is, finding good PSUs in stock can be difficult. For Prime Day however, not only will Cooler Master's high-end 1050 and 1250 watt power supplies be in stock, they'll also come with up to a $40 discount. One of Cooler Master's high-end High Airflow (or HAF) cases is also on sale, which would pair nicely with high-end components.

Best Buy is running a "Black Friday in July" event from now through July 12 with hundreds of deals available, and even more are up for My Best Buy Plus and Total members. These memberships function similarly to an Amazon Prime membership but have some tech-focused perks, like AppleCare+ free for every Apple product purchased at Best Buy.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 21:31:22 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/hp-pavilion-plus-150-off-prime-day-2023/ From tablets to smart TVs, the need for fast and reliable Wi-Fi in every corner of the house is bigger than ever. While the router that came with your internet plan may be fine for a couple of rooms, it could be holding your network back with older Wi-Fi standards and weaker hardware that can’t quite keep up with dozens of devices trying to connect at once. Luckily Prime Day is the perfect time to get upgraded with these deals from ASUS so that you can get the most out of your internet.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 21:31:22 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/asus-wi-fi-router-prime-day-deals/ Amazon Prime Day is one of the best times of the year to pick up some tech bargains.

Apple's incredibly-thin and unrivaled MacBook Air M1 (2020) has hit a new all-time low. For a limited time only, you can invest in a brand-new unit for just $750. That's a 25% discount we're witnessing for the very first time.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 21:26:22 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/m1-macbook-air-prime-day-2023/ Power banks are always handy to have around, whether for travel or smoothing over interruptions to the power to your home. There is no end of great power bank options available, but the Zendure SuperTank Pro does one party trick that most can't: outputting 100W from two of its four USB-C ports. That's enough to power the 16-inch MacBook Pro, with its 96W power requirement. It can also recharge while being used, but you'll need a second 100W capable wall charger to do so. It's usually over $200, but thanks to Prime Day, you can save $46.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 21:20:23 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/zendure-100w-power-bank-prime-day-2023-deal/ The best time to grab a new processor for a new PC build is during shopping events like Prime Day. While there are a wide variety of deals on CPUs during this event, one deal, in particular, jumped out at us. The flagship AMD Ryzen 9 7950X processor is on sale for under $540, making putting together a powerful PC for gaming or productivity that much easier on the wallet. This powerful CPU launched at $700 not that long ago, so this is a huge drop in price.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 21:10:28 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/amd-flagship-ryzen-9-7950x-prime-day-deal/ The latest gaming desktops come with a hefty price attached, but that doesn't mean you can't get gaming with a powerful rig. Amazon Prime Day has deep deals on desktop PCs, and has also spurred other retailers to discount their own devices. One of those is Dell, which is running its Black Friday in July sale, and this insane price for an Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 gaming desktop PC. Normally retailing for $3,200, this powerful gaming rig can be grabbed for just $1,700. That's close to the retail price of building it yourself, with none of the effort involved.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 20:49:43 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/alienware-aurora-r14-ryzen-edition-prime-day-2023-deal/ If you've been waiting for a good opportunity to grab one of the best laptops of the year, Prime Day is the time to do it.

This ensures that you have access to the latest versions of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, for writing up documents and creating presentations or spreadsheets.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 20:05:58 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/microsoft-365-personal-family-prime-day-deal/ It's time for Amazon Prime Day, which means there are a number of discounts live across the board. Whether you're into tech or something beyond, there's literally something for everyone. When Prime Day (and other promotions) come around, we're always on the lookout for savings on not only new laptop PCs and mobile devices but also accessories to better our experiences with these electronics. Docking stations are excellent additions to a laptop if you want to unlock new ports that may not be located on the unit itself.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 20:00:26 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/prime-day-docking-station-deals/ SSDs are all the rage these days, with many users switching to SATA or M.2 drives from slower hard disks. NVMe SSDs are a subset of M.2 drives that provide tons of benefits compared to their SATA counterparts. They have extremely fast read and write speeds thanks to their compatibility with your motherboard’s PCIe interface, and their small form factors allow them to occupy far less space in your system.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 20:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/sk-hynix-gold-p31-prime-day-deal/ Portable monitors are a godsend for users who need a secondary monitor while on the move. With their slim designs, they serve as the perfect companions for on-the-go productivity. They consume significantly less power when compared to traditional monitors and their compatibility with most devices, including gaming consoles and smartphones, allows you to use them for entertainment purposes while traveling.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:45:17 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/arzopa-portable-monitors-prime-day-2023/ Amazon Prime Day is officially here, so if you're planning to take advantage of GPU deals or SSD deals when buying parts for a new PC, why not also consider a new monitor, too? Buying a new monitor on Prime Day at Amazon, Best Buy, and other retailers is a great choice. These retailers now offer monitors of all shapes and sizes on sale, from ultrawide, to productivity, gaming, and more.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:36:54 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/prime-day-displays/ Since the PSU is not the most stylish part of your system, many first-time PC builders tend to skimp out on a decent power supply unit to save money for other components. However, picking a reliable power supply is important for the longevity of your PC as a lower quality PSU can damage the other components of your system if it malfunctions.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:30:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/evga-supernova-80-plus-psu-prime-day-deal/ The best way to improve the performance of an older PC or to expand the capacity of a newer one is a solid-state drive (SSD). SSDs are considerably faster than mechanical hard disk drives (HDD) and, as such, were traditionally more expensive. Prices have dropped over recent years, and now it's possible to buy 2.5-inch SATA and M.2 NVMe SSDs for less. During promotions such as Amazon Prime Day, which takes place July 11-12, some of the best SSDs on the market will be discounted, allowing you to buy more capacity at reasonable prices.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:12:21 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/prime-day-ssds/ Alienware makes some fantastic gaming laptops, and for Prime Day, the company has discounted its x16 gaming laptop, knocking 16% off the retail price. While that might not sound like a lot, it's actually quite a bit considering the laptop's original price sits north of $3,200. So if you've been interested in this laptop and want to pick it up for $530 less, now's the perfect time.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 18:43:08 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/alienware-x16-530-off-prime-day/ Amazon Prime Day is here, and there are thousands of products that come with massive discounts during the two-day event.

To help you out, we've curated a list of the best Amazon Prime Day deals below. We'll continue to update this list as more deals become available, so check back often for the latest prices and in-stock items.

During Prime Day, save $200 off the powerful slimline notebook, but that's not the only thing you'll be getting. Samsung has a history of including free stuff, and the added extra here is a fantastic deal. For a limited time, get a 32-inch M70B 4K USD Smart Monitor completely free with the purchase of a Galaxy Book 3 Ultra. That monitor usually sells for $400, so you're getting an awesome package.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 18:07:08 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/prime-day-shaves-19-off-the-latest-asus-rog-strix-g16-gaming-laptop/ With heat being a constant threat to your computer system, adequate cooling for all the components is absolutely vital for their longevity. Overheating is especially bad for your CPU, which can easily hit high temperatures if you’re not careful. A decent CPU cooler is almost as important as the processor itself.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 17:48:24 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/deepcool-ls520-se-prime-day-deal/ Samsung's 990 Pro sits at the top when it comes to the best SSDs on the market right now.

Of course, depending on the application, there are different options available like HDDs, NVMe M.2 SSDs, and SATA SSDs. If you're looking to upgrade an older laptop or need to increase the storage of your PC but want some speed behind the data, a SATA SSD is the best way to go.

The retailer is offering plenty of excellent deals on Chromebooks on its own Black Friday in July event. It's where we found one of the best Chromebooks for gaming, the Acer Chromebook 516 GE for $500, a $150 discount from the usual $650 price.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 15:28:32 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/acer-chromebook-516ge-best-buy-deal/ Building a PC is typically an expensive endeavor but some of this cost can be mitigated with some Prime Day deals. We've put together a powerful gaming PC build that is more than capable of handling 1080p and 1440p resolutions with excellent results. This is largely thanks to the Intel Core i5-12600K and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, providing ample performance. The best part about this build? It costs less than $900, excluding the price of a Windows license, of course.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 15:25:09 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/build-a-gaming-pc-with-these-prime-day-deals/ Streaming services such as Netflix and Spotify are excellent for accessing almost limitless amounts of media and they've completely changed the way we consume music, shows, and movies. The drawback to these streaming services is precisely that, there are loads of them! Want to enjoy Game of Thrones? HBO. Anything remotely to do with Star Wars? Disney+. Love Island? Netflix. Before you know it, you have multiple subscriptions that can easily cost $30 a month, if not more. The worse part is you're beholden to these services. If you cancel at any time, you lose access to your favorite media.

They're second to none at eliminating the dead zones and expanding the Wi-Fi coverage at your home. There are plenty of Eero 6 routers to choose from, but the one we're looking at right now is the Eero 6+ mesh Wi-Fi system that's heavily discounted as a part of the Prime Day sale. The 3-pack Eero 6+ system, which usually goes for $299, is down to just $195 right now. That's over $100 in savings, which you can use to buy some other Echo devices or a couple more Eero 6+ router nodes. It's a Prime Day doorbuster that's simply too good to ignore.

As part of your Prime membership, you can see plenty of discounts on some of the best Chromebooks, and budget Chromebooks from companies like HP and Lenovo during the next two days. One in particular that's caught our attention this Prime Day is the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 3i. A deal has brought it down to a new low price of $255, which is an excellent $45 off the usual price of $300.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 15:01:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/lenovo-3i-chromebook-prime-day-deal/ Intel has confirmed that it will no longer be investing in the Next Unit of Compute Business (NUC) arm of its operations. The firm instead will be pivoting to support ecosystem partners, who build similar units. This is a huge change for the PC industry, and will as Intel NUC PCs have proven to be popular as servers, portable desktops, kiosks, and more. Not to forget the enthusiasts who purchase Intel NUC kits to build their own mini PCs.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 14:22:53 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/intel-will-no-longer-make-nuc-pcs/ Intel's 12th-generation Alder Lake chips put the company back on the board in 2021, largely thanks to extremely competitive pricing and great performance. Intel's strategy hasn't changed since, and two of the company's most popular CPUs are on sale during Prime Day for incredibly low prices. The high-end Core i7-13700K is going for $375, a $44 discount, while the Core i5-12600K is getting slashed to $179, making it cheaper than even the cheapest AMD Ryzen 7000 CPU. Whether you're gaming or doing content creation, these are some great choices for a midrange or high-end PC.

One that we found is Samsung's best Chromebook, the Galaxy Chromebook. It's now down in price from the usual $1,000 to $740. That's a great savings of nearly 26%.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 13:47:26 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-chromebook-prime-day-deal/ When it comes to solid-state drives (SSDs) and picking one for your PC or laptop, it's important to consider speeds, PCI generation, form factor, and price. The M.2 2280 form factor is largely supported by laptop and desktop PCs as well as specific game consoles and Lexar's Professional NM800 Pro is one such drive and it's on sale for Prime Day. With the Amazon Prime SSD discount applied, it brings the cost of storage with the Lexar SSD to just $0.05 per GB, which is low for flash storage and a metric we always bear in mind when recommending drives to purchase.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 13:45:17 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/lexars-discounted-professional-2tb-nm800-pro-prime-day/ Microsoft releases Windows updates on a monthly basis bringing new features, improvements, and bug fixes. In fact, updates for supported versions of Windows are expected today as well, as the firm initiates these rollouts on the second Tuesday of each month, known as "Patch Tuesday". However, sometimes, its releases cause unforeseen issues that are usually patched in the subsequent monthly update or through out-of-band updates. Now, Microsoft has announced that it has resolved one such niggling issue affecting Arm-based Windows devices.

I've been playing tactical shooters for years, but enjoy more laidback titles too such as Call of Duty or the recently-released Battlebit. However, one of the biggest upgrades I have made to my setup has been a wireless mouse, and that mouse is the Logitech G Pro Wireless. Now, the Superlight edition of that mouse is on sale, and having used both, I can personally attest to it being an excellent deal.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 13:31:44 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/logitech-g-pro-superlight-prime-day-essay/ When it comes to gaming performance, AMD's Ryzen X3D CPUs with 3D V-Cache are the best of the best. These chips are equipped with an extra chip that has nothing but cache on it, and games love cache, making X3D truly designed for gaming. Although the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the most popular member of the latest Ryzen 7000X3D family, the 7900X3D looks really enticing on Prime Day thanks to its $500 price tag, down from the $600 it launched at. If you want the gaming performance of the 7800X3D and the productivity performance of the 7900X, the 7900X3D is the CPU to get.

Some people rip their DVDs and CDs to them, some people use them as backup servers, and some people just like to have a lot of easily-accessed storage. A NAS can be extremely useful, and if you're looking to build one or upgrade an existing one, then this 18TB Western Digital Red Pro HDD at its lowest price on Amazon ever might be a great place to start.

Deals have landed on not only tech products but tons of other categories. I'm always on the lookout for killer discounts on PC hardware, everything from graphics cards to processors. We've seen notable deals on an array of PC components and accessories in the past, and 2023 shouldn't be a different affair.

Since then, the operating system has received multiple major updates including the Windows 11 2022 Update (version 22H2), and Moment updates in October 2022, February 2023, and June 2023. With numerous versions of Windows 11 now available, Microsoft has announced that it is ending support for the original version of the operating system soon.

There are some great deals to be had on a lot of different types of computer hardware, including SSDs, PC cases, monitors, and more. However, one great sleeper deal that can really get you kickstarted on that new build you've been yearning for sees an Intel i9-12900K paired with an Intel Arc A750 for just $479. Keep in mind that the Intel i9-12900K alone debuted at $589, and now you can pick it up with a GPU for even less than that.

The Drop CTRL and ALT are two excellent offerings that are available in a variety of configurations, everything from barebones to fully assembled. Drop has reduced the price of both keyboards for Prime Day, allowing just about everyone to save big on a custom mechanical keyboard.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 09:25:10 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/drop-keyboard-prime-day-sale/ Amazon announced the dates for this year's Prime Day, and we can expect to see tons of discounts on a variety of products between July 11–12. Many of these discounts will cover technology, including prebuilt gaming desktop systems. We're here to answer a vital question you may have: Should you buy a prebuilt gaming PC on Prime Day?

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 09:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/should-buy-prebuilt-gaming-pc-prime-day/ SK hynix makes some of the fastest SSDs on the market and we're seeing a few drives from the brand discounted on Amazon for Prime Day. Upgrading the performance of your desktop and/or laptop PC can be as simple as swapping out the slower storage drive for an M.2 NVMe SSD with read and write speeds of up to 7,000MB/s, so long as the motherboard supports them. These drives have traditionally been more expensive than 2.5-inch SATA SSDs that are limited to around 560MB/s but now is the best time to save big on the larger capacity NVMe SSDs and right now there's up to $48 discounted on SK hynix drives.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 07:55:36 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/upgrade-your-pc-for-less-with-discounted-sk-hynix-ssds/ Although Microsoft already offers Windows PCs powered by the cloud through multiple solutions including Windows 365, these workstations do not usually cater to specialized use-cases and have long deployment times. One scenario that Microsoft felt that it had been missing for several years is offering powerful cloud-based workstations to developers, pre-configured and ready for building applications. To tackle this problem, the Redmond tech firm announced Microsoft Dev Box in May 2022, and now, the solution is generally available.

Thankfully, we've uncovered an amazing deal on Samsung's 43-inch Odyssey Neo G7 monitor which offers 4K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and can even double as a smart TV. This monitor usually retails for $1,000, but for a limited time ahead of Prime Day, we're seeing a massive 50% discount, bringing the price down to just $500.

Do you want to print photos or just text? Wired or wireless? Luckily, all-in-one printers like the Canon PIXMA TR7020a take a lot of this confusion away by offering up just about all the features you'd want in one device.

]]> Mon, 10 Jul 2023 19:47:59 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/canon-pixma-prime-day-2023-deal/ The Asus ROG Ally is a high-end video game handheld powered by Windows, and the highest-end device you can get has 512GB of storage. That's a decent amount of storage, but installing a game like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II will take up nearly 20% of that right away. Couple that with other games that are all getting close to the 100GB mark, and all of a sudden, your storage has run out. Upgrading your device's storage is a great remedy to that, and thankfully, Asus makes it really easy. In fact, I would argue that it's an easier process than installing Windows on a normal PC.

One of those is the Lenovo ThinkCentre M60q which was announced at the end of 2022. This Chromebox is a really great one to consider if you want to bring ChromeOS to the big screen at home or at work, or for things like powering kiosks. It's durable with a ThinkPad-like look and is very compact. It even features the power of modern 12th-generation Intel CPUs under the hood.

Even with this limited scope, the associated experience offered by Android apps on Windows 11 wasn't good, and the implementation had a lot of notable issues. However, Amazon and Microsoft have been working out some kinks and the Amazon Appstore on Windows 11 has now hit general availability for developers.

That series today is only comprised of three cards, although only the Intel Arc A750 has been able to join the ranks of the best gaming GPUs. When it comes to graphics cards, it's about the software as much as it is about the hardware, and it's been challenging for Intel to match Nvidia and AMD, which have been in the industry for two decades. Despite having to do everything from scratch, Intel is managing to compete with its rivals even in one of the most cutting-edge areas of gaming. Here's what you need to know about XeSS.

After the lukewarm initial release of Bard, Google announced that it is moving its AI-powered search chatbot to the PaLM 2 language model back in May. Alongside this, it also shared models for Sec-PaLM2 and Med-PaLM2 for those in the cybersecurity and the medical industry, respectively. It turns out that the latter of these two large language models (LLMs) is already being trialed in real environments.

While Chromebooks used to just be traditional clamshell laptops, many of the best Chromebooks are now also tablets, too. That includes a device with a detachable screen, as well as the 2-in-1 form factor where you can convert that Chromebook over to use in various modes. This is exactly why we've put together this buying guide. We'll be looking at some of the best ChromeOS tablets from HP, Acer, and Samsung.

One of the most popular of these accessories was the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro gaming headset. Released in 2020, it's super lightweight and super sleek, and a favorite of many professional gamers. In today's days, though, that headset was starting to show its age when compared to the competition. Micro USB-C connectivity, for example, was just one thing that made it look so dated. It didn't even have Bluetooth connectivity.

It comprises many different models and SKUs, which can make picking one rather difficult. There's the mainline LG Gram series, which comes in four sizes, but there are also three active sub-models: the Style, 2-in-1, and SuperSlim. There is also last generation’s Ultra-Slim Pro, which is technically still available from some retailers, but that line has been dropped for the 2023 refresh.

Microsoft has committed to updating Windows 11 every so often with "Moment" updates, which are basically feature drops every few months.

When it comes to Windows 11, Microsoft has opted for the "one single annual update per year" formula, albeit the company will continue to make available regular patches and fixes throughout the year to address the known issues. New feature sets, such as the "Moment 3" release, are also being seeded through the Windows Update framework.

It's not uncommon to hear people call the whole computer or even something like a router a "CPU." In fact, a single CPU can fit in the palm of your hand, and it's arguably the single most important component in any computer. Here's everything you need to know about CPUs.

What's more interesting is that you can unofficially try it right now — even if you're not enrolled in the Beta channel of Windows 11. In case you're not happy with the mandatory Amazon Appstore integration, you should be happy to hear that the app sideloading process isn't difficult either. It is also possible to install a third-party Google Play Store client, but the lack of Google services in the Windows Subsystem for Android makes it a bit hard to use apps that are dependent on them, as we noted in our hands-on.

This wouldn't be much of an issue, except some require me to go into the registry to clean it up.

Not only does it pack some of Apple's mightiest silicon, but it also supports macOS Sonoma and all of its rich features. And while newer iterations of this Pro notebook offer a wide variety of ports, it still is missing some types. Worry not, though, as you can easily fix this problem by relying on USB-C hubs.
