It’s a lovely Labor Day weekend, and no matter what your plans are, set some time aside for shopping. Holiday deals are here on a wide variety of tech, and Dell’s online store is leading the way with some seriously solid machines. The venerable PC maker has laptops and desktops at deep discounts, and we’ll start off with these six offers on performance-rated laptops, user-friendly all-in-ones, gaming PCs, and more. Additional deals will be added throughout the weekend, so come back often.
Dell Pro 16 Laptop Labor Day Deal
Dell’s laptops are used all around the world in enterprise and small business situations, because they’re well-appointed, affordable, and supported by excellent warranties and customer service. The Dell Pro 16 is a very impressive midrange machine with a big screen, solid components, and support for cutting-edge AI functionality. We have a short preview here, as we haven’t taken this model into the lab yet, as well as a full review of the similar (but more expensive Pro Max 16 Plus). Both write-ups note that these machines deliver great performance on productivity tasks. This particular loadout comes with a capacious 55 Wh battery with ExpressCharge support for all-day life and speedy fill-ups. You can snag it for a 24% discount right now.
Dell 14 Plus Laptop Labor Day Deal
For something with a little more portability and a little more horsepower, the Dell 14 Plus is a great deal with an 18% Labor Day weekend price drop. This compact performance-oriented productivity machine is loaded for bear with a beefy Intel Core Ultra 7 processor paired with 32GB of system memory, so it’ll keep dozens of browser tabs open and let you multitask without slowdown. We have a detailed review of this model, giving it an “Excellent” rating for its comfortable touchpad and keyboard, long battery life, and premium all-metal construction. It’s exceptionally durable as well, passing multiple lab tests that include being dropped 1,200 times and having the hinge opened and closed 20,000 times. Built to last at a nice price? You can’t beat that.
Dell New XPS 13 Laptop Labor Day Deal
Dell’s been making a big play for the niche that Apple’s dominated with the MacBook for over a decade, and the New XPS 13 is a terrific Windows portable with style to spare. We have an in-depth review of this new laptop, giving it an Editors’ Choice award for its attractive all-metal build, bright and responsive touchscreen, and solid component loadout for the price. This is an ultra-thin form factor, but it doesn’t compromise on either performance or battery life. We got more than 20 hours out of a single charge in our testing. This configuration is a little more potent than the one we took into the lab, with a full 16GB of RAM the biggest improvement. Save $300 during Dell’s Labor Day sale.
Alienware 16 Aurora Gaming Laptop Labor Day Deal
Looking for a great deal on a gaming machine? This $900 price drop brings the Alienware Aurora 16 almost into the budget bracket, and it’s a tremendous value. This is a well-designed portable that doesn’t push the envelope when it comes to dazzle, but it’s thermally efficient thanks to a focused airflow Cryo Chamber system, has decent battery life, and can run all of today’s hottest games. While the RTX 5050 graphics card isn’t the peak of the performance pyramid, it tested well for us in the lab, and the bright 16-inch screen has a peak refresh rate of 120Hz. The keyboard and touchpad are both comfortable, and port selection is solid. At this price, it’s one of the best entry-level gaming laptops out there.

Dell 24 All-In-One Desktop Labor Day Deal
Dell’s all-in-one desktops are solid all-around PCs that are great for families, with simple setup and big screens. The Dell 24 has a $100 discount during the Labor Day sale, bringing it in under a thousand bucks. While this isn’t an ultra-powerful machine, with an Intel Core 3 processor running the show and just 8GB of RAM, it’s more than enough to handle everyday household productivity tasks, Web browsing, and watching videos from your streaming service of choice. We have a full review, where strong points included its attractive design with a pair of triangular legs that fit nicely on most surfaces, along with good-quality wireless peripherals and plenty of ports. Wireless connectivity is also quite good, with speedy Wi-Fi 6E support.
