Walmart's New Year's sale features hefty discounts on our many of our favorite laptops. As CES 2025 unveils next-gen laptops expected to launch later this year, Walmart is pricing existing stock to move.

It's laptop clearance season at Walmart and the discounts I'm seeing are on par with and in some instances, beat last year's Black Friday deals.

For example, the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 is on sale for just $679 ($100 off) at Walmart. Despite its age, the 2023 Ideapad Flex 5 is still one of the best 2-in-1 laptops to buy.

Though we didn't get a chance to test this exact model, our past IdeaPad Flex 5 reviews cite solid performance and impressive battery life with this Lenovo convertible notebook series.

The IdeaPad Flex 5 in deal is configured with a 16-inch (1920 x 1200) touchscreen, AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8-core CPU, 16GB of RAM, and AMD Radeon Graphics. For fast file transfers and ample storage, it's outfitted with a speedy 512GB SSD.

If you're financially stretched at the moment and want to buy a new sub-$500 laptop, you don't have to sacrifice performance for price.

Take advantage of Walmart's New Year's sale and nab the Lenovo IdeaPad 3i for $479 ($390 off) or the super budget-friendly Asus Vivobook Go 15 for a measly $249 ($50 off).

Walmart didn't forget about you gamers and creators out there who are on the prowl for a laptop with enough muscle for graphics intensive applications.

During the big box store's New Year's savings event, you can score various gaming laptops for the cheap.

Score the MSI Thin 15 with RTX 3050 for $599 ($100 off) or the RTX 4070 Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 for $1,249 ($350 off). In our Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 review, we called it "a gaming laptop that shouldn't be overlooked". Especially if you prioritize good gaming performance, an efficient cooling system, and an immersive display.

Those are just some examples of the excellent laptops deals Walmart has going on today. So if you're a savvy shopper who's been holding out for a great bargain on last year's laptops, your patience wasn't in vain.
