Need a Laptop - now or wait for Amazon Sale

Hello Wise People:

I am planning to change my laptop and Lenovo E490s ($1760 includes a discount of $750) fits my use case ( no entertainment, Software development only ).

The thing is, sale on Lenovo ends tomorrow (11/7).

Should I let it pass and wait for Amazon prime sale?

I missed the previous deal on Amazon ( Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen, 14.0'' WQHD, i7-8550U, 16GB RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD, Win 10 Pro $1799 Delivered @ Amazon AU ).

Just yea or nah.

  • That X1 CArbon is exactly what I want, in the specs I want, and that price is friggin spectacular. But alas being right in the middle of selling my home I can’t access any money until next week at the soonest. An offer has been made but it’s still in the cooling off period. ARGH.

    There’s an E490 (i5) on sale on Lenovo site for $1080 right now, plus you can get the 12% cashback. There’s an i7 for $1360…

    • Need i7. And its exactly the same deal I am talking about (upgraded processor).

      Having said this, the X1 Carbon deal is dead.

  • +1

    Ebay seems to offer better prices than Lenovo's official store. Just search for X1 Carbon 16 on ebay and you'll get 2.2k to 2.5k for WQHD 512GB SSD 16GB RAM variants of the X1

  • Nah yeah.

    E series always on sale at lenovo anyway.
