Forget the tired “MacBook Air killer” tagline — Cyber Monday 2025 has turned Microsoft’s Surface Laptop 7 into the deal that actually makes premium Windows hardware feel like a flex.
In fact, there are two excellent Cyber Monday deals on the Surface Laptop 7. A Best Buy flash sale discounts the Surface Laptop 7 to $899.99 $999.99. That model has a Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage.
Sleek design, powerhouse performance, and a price that finally undercuts Apple’s smug markup — the Surface Laptop 7 is the Cyber Monday steal that demands attention.
Also, it's one of Windows Central's favorite laptops of 2025, as many of our staff own and use one (granted, we also have the special Microsoft 50th Anniversary Edition, which is 🤌).
Tuesday, Dec. 2 @ 5:36 AM ET: Best Buy's deal rises from $899 to $999 as Cyber Monday officially ends, with similar inflation at Amazon. Still, Walmart is holding onto its same discounted price! — Ben Wilson, Senior Editor
Alternative deals
While the above deal is excellent from Walmart, we found two other Surface Laptop 7 deals offered via Best Buy and Amazon, if users prefer those configurations or retailers.
Best Buy's deal is down to just $749.99 (saving $450), and it offers Snapdragon X Plus, 16GB RAM, and 256GB SSD. Compared to the Walmart deal above, this model has a slightly less powerful processor (X Plus versus X Elite), a lot less storage (256GB versus 1TB), and the same amount of RAM (16GB). But it is $250 cheaper.
Likewise, Amazon has a Surface Laptop 7 for $699.99 $999.99. It has a beefier Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage.
All of these models are excellent, and we're confident that as Surface Laptop 7 users ourselves, you'll be happy with any of them; it just depends on how much you want to spend.
The Surface Laptop 7 is an attractive PC with a design that rivals Apple's MacBook Air. The Surface Laptop 7 also has a great keyboard, trackpad, battery life, and display.
I've owned several Surface devices myself, but I defer to our expert Zac Bowden when it comes to Microsoft's flagship PC lineup. Bowden effusively praised this device in our Surface Laptop 7 review.
"So, the Surface Laptop 7. It's basically perfect. It's peak clamshell form factor," said Bowden. He also said, "I think the Surface Laptop 7 gives the MacBook Air a run for its money."
It's not just Bowden who praised the Surface Laptop 7. Our colleagues at TechRadar also gave the PC a perfect 5 out of 5.
The Surface Laptop 7 debuted in the first half of 2024, but it still holds a spot on our list of the best Windows laptops. If you're looking for a thin-and-light Windows laptop, the Surface Laptop 7 is still the one to beat.
