In the era of Apple Silicon, MacBooks are more affordable than ever. Nowadays, you can buy a with 512GB of storage and 16GB of memory for $1099 directly from Apple, when such a configuration would’ve cost $1599 just a few years ago. And on top of that, we have bringing the entry-point down substantially.

Even with Apple’s prices coming down though, there’s still a number of deals to be found out there if you look just a little.

Up until the launch of , the represented the entry point to Apple’s laptop lineup. Despite MacBook Neo making its value proposition slightly questionable, I’d still say is a great laptop if you want a better experience without needing anything premium.

MagSafe, a P3 color display, Center Stage on the webcam, and more battery life are just a few of the highlights with MacBook Air. It also comes with a 15-inch size variant, unlike which only offers 13-inch.

Right now, you can find these great deals across the MacBook Air lineup:

• M4 MacBook Air 13-inch: 256GB storage, 16GB memory – ($100 off)
• M4 MacBook Air 15-inch: 256GB storage, 16GB memory – ($250 off!)
• M5 MacBook Air 13-inch: 512GB storage, 16GB memory – ($50 off)
• M5 MacBook Air 15-inch: 512GB storage, 16GB memory – ($50 off)

This isn’t every configuration imaginable – you can find the rest on the respective Amazon product pages, though. Right now, you can fetch $50 off M5 models across the board – and $250 off the last generation , which in my opinion is quite a steal!

This product doesn’t need a long explanation – is Apple’s first affordable MacBook, coming in at just $599.

It has some compromises compared to the aforementioned , but it’s still incredibly good for the price. Build quality, display sharpness, and the macOS experience are all essentially uncompromised. Sure, you have to deal with a slower A18 Pro chip (though trust me, it’s no slouch), lesser ports, and 8GB of memory, but it’s perfectly reasonable for the price. It also comes in fun colors like , , and .

There’s no retail discounts on MacBook Neo right now, though if you’re a student, you can fetch . Otherwise, you can buy one on Amazon:

At the top of the lineup is . You get the best of the best, though there is one major caveat. Apple is reportedly redesigning the high-end variants of later this year with OLED, touchscreens, and thinner designs.

That redesign will only debut with the M6 Pro and M6 Max chip , though – so if you’re someone buying the base model with the M5 chip, you’re still in the clear to buy a new MacBook today. Same applies if you don’t care about the redesign at all, since M5 Pro and M5 Max are still incredible new chips.

14-inch MacBook Pro deals:

• MacBook Pro with M5: 1TB of storage, 24GB of memory – ($200 off!)
• MacBook Pro with M4 Pro: 512GB of storage, 24GB of memory – ($200 off!)
• MacBook Pro with M5 Pro: 1TB of storage, 24GB of memory – ($50 off)

16-inch MacBook Pro deals:

While M4 Pro will perform better than M5, it isn’t necessarily competitively priced on the 14-inch, so choose wisely. For the 16-inch, M4 Pro comes with the 512GB option still, allowing you to save a little bit compared to M5 Pro, which starts at 1TB.
