At the same time, the first major discount promotion since the website’s relaunch is underway; the site has been online in a completely revamped form since August 5.
- Up to 20% off customizable XMG laptops; discount applied automatically in the shopping cart
- Up to 700 euros off XMG pre-built PCs available for immediate delivery

If you’re looking for discounts beyond the current promotion, you’ll also find what you’re looking for in our overview of bestware coupon codes.
The relaunched website faces its first real test with the gaming deals
bestware.com has been the official online store of Schenker Technologies GmbH in Leipzig since 2018 and is the successor to the mySN.de platform, which was active from 2003 to 2018. In early August, the store completely revamped its technological infrastructure: The configurator for laptops and desktop PCs from the XMG and SCHENKER brands now offers a wider selection, presets with recommended configurations, and more clearly presented additional information. In addition, there are shorter loading times, navigation based on filters and menus, and a view optimized for smartphones for the first time.
After a test phase of just under two weeks, the current discount promotion is the first major test for the new site. Anyone who encounters minor issues can report them using the feedback button in the lower right corner of the homepage. The BLACK-DEALS promotion last November already demonstrated just how seriously bestware.com takes such discount campaigns.
Customizable XMG laptops with up to 20 percent off
For all freely configurable laptops, you can choose RAM and SSDs in various performance and size classes, and often the CPU, display, or graphics card as well. Windows 11 is not pre-installed by default but can be added as an option. If you also configure a Samsung SSD, you’ll get it at an even lower price thanks to the concurrent Samsung SSD sale.

XMG Pre-built Models: Up to 700 euros cheaper and available immediately
If you don’t need a custom-configured laptop, opt for a prebuilt model: These models come equipped with 32 GB of RAM, a 1 or 2 TB SSD, and Windows 11 Home, are available faster, and—in percentage terms—sometimes come with even deeper discounts. The following selection shows only a small portion of the much more extensive lineup.
| Model | Specifications | Discount | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| XMG EVO 14 (E25) | Ryzen AI 7 350, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, Windows 11 | 430 € | €1,099 instead of €1,529 |

| XMG FOCUS 17 (M25) | Core i9-14900HX, RTX 5070 Ti, 32 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD | €680 | €1,999 instead of €2,679 |
Samsung SSD Sale offers an additional discount when configuring
There’s an extra savings opportunity for all freely configurable laptops and desktop PCs: The Gaming Deals coincide with the “Samsung SSD Sale,” which runs through September 14. If you select one or more Samsung SSDs in the configurator, you’ll pay less for them until that date: For 1- and 2-TB models, the price drops by 50 and 75 euros, respectively, and for 4- and 8-TB SSDs, by 100 euros. Our overview of Samsung’s presence at Gamescom 2026 —including the new SSD 9100 PRO—shows just how seriously Samsung itself takes the gaming business surrounding Gamescom.
XMG Desktop PCs and Accessories from HATOR and GameSir
There’s a 5 percent discount on all XMG gaming PCs. This applies to the well-known XMG SECTOR and XMG TRINITY series as well as the new XMG NOMAD, which packs a lot of power into a small space with a case volume of about 20 liters. You can also increase the discount on desktop PCs by choosing a Samsung SSD.
Several third-party input devices are also on sale during the promotion: the HATOR Pulsar 3 Wireless and HATOR Quasar 3S ULTIMA 8K gaming mice, the HATOR Skyfall 80 Pro, HATOR Skyfall 80 MAG ULTIMA 8K, and HATOR Skyfall 100 Pro (in black or black-and-white), as well as the GameSir G7 Pro controller.
About bestware.com
bestware.com is the Europe-wide e-commerce platform operated by Schenker Technologies GmbH of Germany. Using the configurator, customers can customize and purchase laptops and desktop PCs from the company’s own brands, XMG and SCHENKER, according to their own preferences. The product range is complemented by third-party hardware such as desktop, laptop, and gaming accessories, as well as virtual and extended reality devices.
Conclusion
The 2026 Gaming Deals are deliberately timed to coincide with Gamescom; at the same time, bestware.com is using this opportunity to test how the new website performs under real-world conditions. Anyone who was already planning to buy an XMG laptop, a new desktop system, or gaming accessories can currently save in three ways: through the percentage discount on laptops, the price reductions on prebuilt systems, and the concurrent Samsung SSD sale. The promotion runs until midnight on August 31; the next round of discounts is expected to follow by Gamescom at the latest.
