Cyber Monday 2023 is finally here, and there's no better time of the year to buy a laptop — even if that laptop is a premium MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. These Cyber Monday MacBook deals have the potential to save you hundreds of dollars on some of Apple's most popular laptops.

These discounts include $250 off the latest M2 MacBook Air, which offers fantastic visuals and speedy performance that'll suit most users; and $200 off the best M3 MacBook Pro, which is powerful enough for high-end 4K video and image editing. If you've been waiting to take the MacBook plunge, now is the time.

These Cyber Monday MacBook sales are likely going to end at midnight tonight, November 27. We probably won't see deals as good as these for at least a few more months, so act fast if you want a great holiday gift. Once you've put a new MacBook in your cart, head over to our main Cyber Monday deals hub for even more discounts across a wide range of categories.

Best Cyber Monday MacBook Air deals

The MacBook Air received a big boost in speed and battery life over Intel models thanks to Apple's M1 chip, all while keeping the same sleek design. Amazon's $750 deal price matches an all-time low.

$200 off the 2022 MacBook Air is a nice deal for a popular Apple laptop that was only released not so long ago and comes with a big design and screen refresh. This MacBook Air introduces Apple's M2 processor, offering a decent performance boost over the M1 version.

The 15-inch MacBook Air (2023) gives you more screen space without breaking the bank. This 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD base model is near its all-time low price.

Best Cyber Monday MacBook Pro deals

$200 off the brand new M3 MacBook Pro is more than we expected so soon after launch. The new laptop is yet another excellent device, but if you have an M2, we'd hold off upgrading. M1 users will notice a considerable improvement, and if you're still using an Intel MacBook Pro, this will basically blow your socks off.

This larger 16-inch MacBook Pro packs a real punch with the new M3 Pro chip paired with 18GB of unified memory. If heavy multitasking and media editing are part of your regular workflow, this is a great investment, and $250 off so soon after launch is a great find. If you're not going to need all this power, we'd recommend picking up a MacBook Air instead.

FAQs

Which MacBook should I buy?

Apple's MacBook laptops are priced to match their intended users. The more affordable MacBook Air models are excellent options for the vast majority of people who need a quick, responsive, and reliable laptop for pretty much any task, except intensive photo and video editing. Even then, MacBook Airs can still be quite capable with lighter visual workloads. 

And now that Apple released a 15-inch model of the MacBook Air, those who prefer larger screens no longer need to buy a MacBook Pro to satisfy their preference. 

The more expensive MacBook Pros have more powerful hardware suited for heavier workloads, especially visually based work like intensive photo and video editing. While the MacBook Pros also come with slightly better displays, better battery life, and more ports, they're still overkill based on value for the vast majority of people. 

Is Cyber Monday the best time to buy a MacBook?

Cyber Monday is among the best times to buy a MacBook. In fact, most laptops receive heavy discounts on holiday shopping events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. While it's true that retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H often hold deals on MacBooks throughout the year, Cyber Monday routinely brings in particularly remarkable MacBook deals, and this year's sales event is no exception.
