Amazon's flagship summer sale falls in the middle of the back-to-school shopping season, making now a prime time for good laptop deals.

What we like: Our budget Android tablet pick. Same 8-inch display, MediaTek processor, and 13-hour battery life as its predecessor, with more RAM for slightly faster performance and a mildly higher-megapixel rear camera. Ideal for streaming video or using as a family tablet.

This Prime Day, the Asus ROG Strix G16 is a great bet. This laptop has a large screen, isn't too heavy, and while it leans a bit hard on the hardcore aesthetics, you can turn off its RGB lights if those aren't your thing.
