Best Black Friday MacBook deals at a glance:



Black Friday is technically over, but retailers are continuing to serve up significant discounts on MacBooks as we move into Cyber Weekend. In fact, the discounts currently live mark the lowest prices of the holiday shopping season for the core 2025 models — all of which are still on sale right now.

Amazon and Best Buy have rolled their Black Friday sales directly into their Cyber Weekend events, and their deals on Apple laptops remain strong. Some standouts include the M4 MacBook Air down to $749 and the very latest MacBook Pro with M5 chip, still getting its biggest discount yet, saving you $200.

These deals beat out what you're going to find at the Apple Store. As usual, the brand is hosting its Black Friday gift card promo, which gives you a small sum back to use on Apple products after you've made your purchase. But as far as discounts go, Apple will be bereft of discounts like those you can find elsewhere. Here's the good news, though. If you're looking for more Apple savings on iPads, AirPads, and more, you can check out our Apple deals recommendations and sign up to receive Mashable's deals alert over text.

Best Black Friday MacBook Air deal

Why we like it

We’ve named the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air the best option for students because it's incredibly lightweight and thin, which makes for ultimate portability. This model is currently on sale for just $749, and trust us, that's a serious bargain. We doubt you will see this price drop any lower throughout Cyber Weekend, so if you need a reliable machine for school, now's the time to grab it.
