Amazon doesn't offer a ton of great discounts on a huge selection of laptops year-round, but shoppers can always count on it for MacBook deals. It's never difficult to find a current or recent-gen configuration on sale there at any given time, at prices that often give Best Buy a run for its money. (That's usually where you'll see the best laptop deals across all categories — Windows, Chromebooks, gaming laptops, etc.)
Amazon's MacBook deals get especially good during its major sitewide sales (think Prime Day), and with its second-ever Big Spring Sale officially confirmed for March 25 to 31, we're expecting it to produce some of the season's best prices.
The retail giant is already pulling out some stops well before the sale gets underway. At the time of writing, the base models of the brand-new 13- and 15-inch MacBook Airs were already $50 off. (They launched less than a week ago on March 12.) Those are great deals, though you may be inclined to wait a little longer in case their discounts get even bigger: The M3 model was $95 off during Amazon's first Big Spring Sale in 2024, and it came out just two weeks prior.
Mashable's Shopping team will continue to keep track of the best MacBook deals on Amazon ahead of (and during) its Big Spring Sale, and you can check out our top picks below. Note: Deals with a 🔥 next to them have dropped to record-low prices.
