Best Laptop Deal of the Day: $300 Savings on a Budget-Friendly and Battle-Ready HP Victus

With the best tech sale event of the year, Black Friday, looming on the horizon, it’s no surprise that retailers are throwing open the doors to their deals early. HP is currently hosting its Black Friday Sale, with savings of up to 81% on doorbusters and guaranteed Black Friday pricing. If you’re looking to get ahead of the holiday rush, now is the time to start shopping. Gamers on a budget are in luck because the 15-inch HP Victus has seen a 25% discount, and it features a Ryzen 7 processor and RTX 4050 GPU, capable of 1080p performance without costing an arm and a leg.

The HP Victus won’t be running Monster Hunter Wilds on max settings, but it can handle team shooters and battle royales like Valorant and Fortnite, so you can hop online with your friends. Our expert, Charles Jefferies, reviewed the 2025 HP Victus configuration and highlighted the comfortable keyboard, decent screen, and excellent battery life—all of which are improvements over the 2022 HP Victus. Despite being a budget gaming laptop, the HP Victus doesn’t feel cheap, featuring a sturdy plastic chassis and a modest port selection that covers the essentials. 

“For the price, this laptop provides a decent balance of everyday usability and gaming features,” our expert said in his review. You can save $300 on this competent budget gaming laptop capable of running all but the most demanding recent video game releases without dialing down the settings below medium.
