A quick look at the best MacBook deals from Amazon’s Big Spring Sale:
Time is running out on Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale. The sale event wraps up after March 31. But thankfully the deals are still going strong, with epic discounts still available and more price drops coming as the hours tick by.
The Big Spring Sale mainly revolves around seasonal essentials like cleaning supplies and outdoor gear, but it also boasts some very generous deals on must-have tech — including flagship Apple products such as MacBooks. And as Mashable’s resident laptop expert, I’m very much on the case with these deals.
Apple actually just refreshed its MacBook lineup earlier this month, announcing updated MacBook Airs and Pros in addition to an all-new budget MacBook Neo. Most configurations of these new releases are seeing their very first (tiny) discounts during the Big Spring Sale, while their predecessors are priced to move at up to $300 off.
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is surprisingly good: We found 111+ deals on Apple, DJI, Sony, and Dyson
Keep in mind that Apple has discontinued its last-gen MacBooks, which means they’ll only be available on the refurbished market once third-party retailers’ inventories dry up. If you see a good deal on an M4 MacBook Air or Pro at Amazon this week, don’t wait too long to add it to your cart. A few configurations are starting to go in and out of stock, and they’ll likely sell out long before this summer’s Prime Day sale hits. With less than 48 hours to go, today is a great day to pull the trigger on a purchase.
I’ll continue to monitor Amazon’s Big Spring Sale MacBook deals as the sale continues into next week, so check back if nothing catches your eye just yet. Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a record-low price. Deals with a strikethrough are no longer available at the time of writing.

Why I like it
The M4 MacBook Air may be a last-gen laptop, but it’s still an incredibly capable ultraportable. (In our testing, it proved much faster than much pricier Windows laptops.) It has the same 12MP Center Stage webcam, Liquid Retina display, and 18-hour battery life as its new M5 counterpart, which just offers slightly faster performance and newer wireless connectivity. This 15-inch configuration with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage has never been cheaper.

Why I like it
Nine bucks off barely counts as a discount, but this is the best MacBook Neo deal I’ve seen outside of the Apple Store itself. (You can get $100 off there, but only if you’re a college student, a parent of one, or school faculty.) This colorful little laptop has the same premium aluminum build as any other MacBook, and it boasts incredibly impressive single-core performance; in basic everyday tasks like web browsing, it’s just as fast as an M4 MacBook Air. This particular model comes with Touch ID. It’s worth noting that this discount only applies to the indigo and silver colorway variants.

Best MacBook Pro deal
$1,799
at Amazon
$1,899
Save $100
Why I like it
A MacBook Pro has more ports and a brighter, smoother display than a MacBook Air. It’s also better at handling heavier workloads (like video editing) over a long period of time since it has fans. I recommend it as an upgrade pick for power users like content creators and developers. This current-gen M5 model is well future-proofed with 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. It’s only $50 away from its record-low price from December.
Another configuration with an older, but more powerful M4 Pro chip is still in stock at the same price, though it comes with half the storage.
