I've looked through hundreds of gaming laptop deals for President's Day: this is my clear favorite
This HP Omen 16 with an RTX 4070 is a great mid-range buy

I'm on the Presidents' Day beat this week - specifically gaming laptops - and honestly? There are some great choices right now.
Right now, my favorite has to be this HP Omen 16t with an RTX 4070 for $1,199 (was $1,449) at the official HP Store; an outstanding mid to upper-range buy for those who want something with a little power under the hood.
[Editor's note] I've just added a few more Pres Day gaming laptop deals to check out this weekend. Included are some incredible discounts on not only RTX 4070 laptops but also RTX 4080 machines! Original article continues...
While this isn't the cheapest RTX 4070 gaming laptop I've ever seen, it comes with a really up-to-date (and speedy) Intel Core i7-14700HX chipset, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. I would have loved to have seen a bigger storage drive on this machine, but the combination of the chipset and RTX 4070 is superb at this price point.
The Omen 16t is also a solid mid-range laptop from HP - one with decent build quality, display, and outstanding performance. Our HP Omen 16 review praised all of the above, although we weren't a huge fan of the chunky bezel that sits just below the screen.

Processor: Intel Core i7-14700HX
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
I've seen cheaper RTX 4070 gaming laptop deals in this year's Presidents' Day sales but this HP Omen 16t is easily one of the best. Not only do you get that powerful RTX 4070 graphics card under the hood, but this one also carries a decent 14th gen Intel Core i7 chipset to massively bolster performance.
Another really great option today is the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 at Best Buy - which I've attached just down below. In terms of specs, this one is slightly behind the HP Omen above but it is cheaper and features a really, really gorgeous design. It's a slightly more premium laptop overall so it's a good option if you're willing to sacrifice some performance for looks. Both are extremely capable gaming laptops with 1080p displays!

If you're looking for a machine that looks as good as it runs, then this Asus Zephyrus G16 at Best Buy is a fantastic choice. Not only is it the recipient of a massive discount, but the combination of an RTX 4070 graphics card and gorgeous high-end design makes this a surprisingly great value choice at this price point. While it's not incredibly powerful, this machine is strong enough to easily max out the graphical settings of most games on its 165Hz 1080p display.
Graphics card: GeForce RTX 4060
Processor: Intel Core i5-13450HX
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
If you're on more of a budget today, you could consider picking up this heavily discounted Lenovo LOQ in the B&H Photo Presidents' Day sale. This one is hovering close to the lowest price I've ever seen for a machine with the mid-range RTX 4060 graphics card and it could be a good choice for those who just need the basics. It's not a world-beater, but this Lenovo will provide pretty smooth 1080p performance on a wide range of titles.
Graphics card: GeForce RTX 4080
Processor: Intel Core i9-14900HX
RAM: 32GB
Storage: 1TB
This MSI Vector 16 HX is one of the cheapest RTX 4080 gaming laptops I've seen in this year's Presidents' Day sales. Despite that, this machine still manages to pack in a really decent Core i9 chipset and 32GB of RAM - more than enough to afford high-end performance in even the most demanding of titles. Unlike some cheaper models, this one also features an excellent 240Hz 1600p display.
