When is Memorial Day?
Memorial Day in the US is on Monday, May 26th. And while the bulk of the best deals will go live day-of, you can find great discounts at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Lowe’s, and Home Depot.

Not all deals are created equal. Since Memorial Day is better known for lawn and garden deals, I only chose discounts on laptops myself or another ZDNET team member has tested.

What are the tariffs in the US?
The recent US tariffs on imports from countries like China, Vietnam, and India aim to boost domestic manufacturing but are likely to drive up prices on consumer electronics. Products like smartphones, laptops, and TVs may become more expensive as companies rethink global supply chains and weigh the cost of shifting production.

Laptops and PCs are also hit hard by the new US tariffs, with import duties potentially increasing prices by up to 35%. Many major brands still rely on Chinese and Vietnamese factories for assembly, meaning consumers could soon pay significantly more for everything from budget Chromebooks to high-end gaming rigs.
These tariffs may accelerate efforts to move production to regions like Mexico or India, but shoppers can expect higher costs and fewer discounts in the short term.
