With Black Friday sales now live at many retailers, I’d normally expect it to be a good time to seek out a deal on an older generation MacBook Pro (when I say older, I mean from 2023, hardly an eon ago). But this year, you don’t have to resort to older tech for a great deal: there are already decent discounts on the new M4 MacBook Pros, which were released just over a week ago.
Amazon already has $125 off the M4 MacBook Pro 14 – reduced from $1,599 to $1,474. This is the entry-level model from the new range, but it’s a notable step up from the entry-level M3 MacBook Pro because it comes with a minimum 16GB RAM instead of 8GB, as well as the new, faster processor. If you do need more power, Amazon also has $200 off the M4 Pro chipped MacBook Pro 16.
And for once, UK readers don’t have to miss out on early deals. Amazon UK has £149 off the new M4 MacBook Pro 14, which is pretty unprecedented. It’s not unheard of for Amazon US to drop deals on brand new MacBooks in the US, but they tend to be smaller discounts. And in ten years of tracking MacBook prices, we’ve rarely seen a decent deal in the UK within the first few weeks of launch.
These laptops are so new, we haven’t finished our own tests on them, but our reviewer’s initial impression is that they provide iterative but notable performance enhancements over last year’s M3 laptops, particularly when it comes to that entry-level model. Battery life, which was already among the best of any laptop, also appears to be even better, approaching true all-day durations.
