Snag this massive 51% discount on HP’s 16-inch Pavilion laptop
The HP Pavilion 16t laptop with a colorful screen.

Even though 15.6-inch laptops tend to be the most common size, there's been a big push recently on 16-inch laptops, which makes sense given that they come with a larger and more convenient screen. One great example is the HP Pavilion Laptop 16t, and if you've been wanting to buy a 16-inch laptop, then this one might be a good option for you. Even more so considering the whopping $569 discount you get from HP directly, bringing the price down to $450 from the original $1,019.

Why you should buy the HP Pavilion Laptop 16t
Even at base specs, the HP Pavilion Laptop 16t is pretty solid, as is the Intel Core 5 120U, which is a mid-range CPU that can handle day-to-day and productivity tasks with relative ease. If you know you need a bit more processing power, you can bump it up to an Intel Core 7 150U, but that means that you will also need to bump up the screen to a 2K OLED model, which adds $340 to the price. While the base specification comes with an FHD resolution panel that can hit 300 nits, if you plan to watch a lot of content, it's probably worth the upgrade, and you still get a discount off the full price, which is nice.
