Apple doesn’t drop prices for Black Friday. Rather, it gives away gift cards when you buy certain items. For Apple’s Black Friday deal in 2024 it is giving gift cards with the MacBook Air purchases made on Apple’s U.S. site or Apple’s U.K. site. Since they are so new, the MacBook Pro models, Mac mini and iMac aren’t included for 2024.

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.

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.
