When Chris Hoffman reviewed the Dell Inspiron 14 Plus earlier this year, he liked the Snapdragon-based laptop a lot… but he also thought it was too pricey at $1,100. “Wait for a sale on this one,” he wrote.
Well, that sale is now here: Best Buy is selling the Inspiron 14 Plus with Copilot+ capabilities for just $750.
That’s already a pretty good deal for a laptop with 16GB of RAM and a 1440p screen, but it’s notable because this is the best price we’ve seen for a laptop that qualifies for fancy Windows 11 Copilot+ features.

The Snapdragon X Plus process is Arm-based, so it’s crazy efficient. Chris got nearly 17 hours in our standard PCWorld battery test (which should last you an entire flight from New York to Sydney, if you’re wondering).
This version of the Dell Inspiron 14 Plus comes with a 512GB SSD, which isn’t amazing but can be later upgraded with an M.2 2280 drive like this one if you need extra breathing room. (I’ve confirmed that this is possible from Chris and this Dell support video, just in case!)
I also like the port selection: double USB-C, plus a USB-A for older gadgets, a headphone jack, and a microSD card slot.
Best Buy sells tons of these Dell laptops, so there’s a pretty good chance it’s available for quick pickup at a local store. But if you prefer to buy it online while this deal lasts, shipping is free.
