I'll be going back to university in the autumn, and I've been pulling my hair out trying to secure a decent laptop at a good price. I'm normally the type of person to leave my tech shopping till the very end to hold off for good deals because I'm a bit of a cheapskate, and I may have struck gold with these Windows 11 deals under £600.
Purchasing laptops for school is quite a big investment, as you'll be using your device for the entirety of your degree and most likely after as well if you buy the right device to suit your needs. In my search for the best Windows 11 laptop deals, I have narrowed it down to my top four Windows 11 laptop deals under £600.
Many of the best laptops on the market often don't have a student-friendly price tag attached to them, so when you see a great deal on a good laptop for schoolwork, you've got to jump on it! One of the main reasons I've been holding off myself was because I was certain that there'd be better deals closer to Black Friday 2024, but I ended up missing out on some great offers.
That's why I think these deals are perfect for back-to-school shoppers like myself. The laptops listed below are powerful, they're portable and they'll be the perfect classroom companion for you as you start your academic journey.
