Prime Day, Amazon’s annual summer sales event, runs from July 8 to 11 this year, but we’re already seeing some dramatic price cuts across a variety of categories. That includes some big sales from Amazon’s competitors — like Walmart and Best Buy — who are attempting to counter Prime Day with some impressive offers of their own.
When it comes to the Microsoft Surface Laptop, one of our favorite Windows laptops on the market, Amazon is taking the prize today for best offer. You can get the latest 2025 version of the Microsoft Surface Laptop with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage for $800 right now. That’s $100 off this top-performing laptop’s typical price and the lowest price we’ve seen.

If you want a bit more storage, you can also pick up the same laptop with 512GB of storage for $900. That’s also a record low price.
In his roundup of the best laptops of 2025, CNET’s Matt Elliott called the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 the best Windows laptop, citing the polished design and battery life as chief selling points. «The Surface Laptop 7 ran for nearly 20 hours in testing — that’s the longest of any 13- or 14-inch laptop I’ve ever tested — including the M4 MacBook Air,» Elliott says.
This offer is not for the exact same 7th edition Elliott reviewed, which was released in 2024, but rather a newer version released this year with nearly identical specs. It offers Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus 8 Core processors, delivering fast performance and power. You also get a touchscreen, haptic touchpad and two USB-C ports.
If you’re on the hunt for a second screen to go with this, check out this 27-inch HP monitor down to just $120. Not sure if this is the laptop for you? We’re keeping an eye on the latest Prime Day laptop deals as well.

Why this deal matters
We don’t see this laptop go on sale too often, and when it does, it’s not usually a significant price cut. Saving $100 on either configuration (256GB or 512GB) is a rare discount. While this is still a spendier laptop, if you’re in the market for a reliable Windows laptop that rivals Apple’s M4 MacBook Air, this is the laptop for you. Just remember, Prime Day brings big savings, but they’re fleeting, and items can go in and out of stock rapidly. For that reason, if you want it, get it while you can.
