Whether you’re thinking about a 16-inch gaming laptop or a more compact 14-inch model, Best Buy has a deal in your name right now. 2025 models Acer Predator Helios Neo 16S and Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 they’re hundreds cheaper, though it’s the larger-screen model that’s currently the cheaper of the two. The sale on the Neo 16S will expire at the end of the day, while the Zephyrus G14 discount will likely be available during President’s Day.
Starting with the popular Zephyrus G14, which features a 3K Pantone-validated OLED that can display up to 120Hz refresh rates, you can get the top-of-the-line configuration at Best Buy for $1,899.99, down from its original price of $2,399.99. In addition to the great screen specs, it has an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor – one of the fastest available on a laptop – plus an Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti GPU with 12GB VRAM, 32GB LPDDR5 RAM clocked at 8,000MHz and a 1TB SSD. This model is ideal for those who want to be able to play any 2026 title at great frame rates without any (or many) compromises in visual fidelity.
In terms of price, Best Buy offers a trim configuration for $100 less, with a slightly worse CPU, significantly less capable GPU (RTX 5060), and half the RAM. You get a lot of extra power with the discounted $1,899.99 model.
The Acer Predator Helios Neo 16S is larger and has a larger OLED screen, but overall it’s still fairly thin for a gaming laptop. And it starts at $1,469.99, down from $1,899.99 at Best Buy. It has comparable specs to the Zephyrus G14 – capable processor in Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, RTX 5070 Ti, 32GB DDR5 6400MHz RAM, 1TB SSD – but its 16-inch screen has a slightly lower resolution at 2560 x 1600 x 240Hz refresh rate (240Hz) 1800 in the Zephyrus G14. Either way, you have two big potential upgrades to consider.
