Best Buy's Memorial Day sale is packed with some of the best laptop deals I've seen so far this year. For a limited time, the electronics retail expert is slashing up to $300 off select Asus-branded laptops. Prices starting at just $349.

One deal I recommend is the Ryzen AI 9-powered Asus Zenbook S 16 Copilot PC for $1,099. Traditionally priced at $1,399, that's $300 off and the lowest price I could find for this particular Asus laptop. By comparison, it undercut Amazon's current price for this same configuration by $550.

Launched in October 2024, the Asus Zenbook S 16 is one of the best laptops for college students, remote workers, and creators.

In our Asus Zenbook S 16 review, we praise its unique design, decent OLED display, powerful performance and long battery life. Just about the only gripe we had with it was its keyboard.

In one test, it breezed through two dozen Google Chrome tabs and a handful of YouTube videos while Spotify played in the background. Back in our lab's Geekbench 6.3 overall performance test, the Asus Zenbook S16 notched a score of 13,282. Not only did it crush the average premium laptop category (9,130), it also surpassed that of its competitor, the M3 MacBook Air’s M3 (12,052).

Now $400 off, the Asus Zenbook S 16 is a solid buy if you prioritize an OLED display, powerful overall performance, and all-day battery life.

Best Buy's Memorial Day sale is on through May 26.
