So what are the best Black Friday MacBook deals so far? For me, it's the MacBook Air M2 for $749 on Amazon, which is $150 off. Meanwhile, the brand-new MacBook Pro 14-inch with the M4 chip is $125 off.

Thanks to an exclusive arrangement with Apple, Walmart sells factory-new versions of the M1 MacBook Air priced at just $599. That’s way less than we’ve seen newer MacBook Air models priced at Amazon and elsewhere, even during their Prime Day lows.

Early Black Friday Cyber Monday deals are starting to drop, and several new Apple MacBooks —including ones that hit the shelves only a few weeks ago—are available for hundreds less. Translation? Now is hands-down the most opportune time to upgrade to a new laptop.
