Walmart's Holiday Deals event is taking on lingering Amazon Big Deal Days with epic gaming laptop deals. One standout is the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 9 with RTX 4060 for $849. It normally costs $1,399, so that's $550 off and one of the best gaming laptop deals you can get outside of the holidays.

Although we didn't test this exact laptop, we gave the Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 9 a solid 4.5 out of 5-star rating for its vibrant display, powerful performance, and graphics prowess. Despite its short battery life, which is typical for gaming laptops, the Legion Slim 5 runs cool and has a satisfying keyboard.

At $550 off, the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen is at a Black Friday price. It's a no-brainer if you're looking for a powerful gaming laptop under $600.
