Today's best MacBook Pro deals
13-inch MacBook Pro deals
Prices for Apple's latest 13-inch MacBook Pro featuring the powerful new M2 chip start at $1,299 / £1,349 for the standard model with a 256GB SSD. It's the cheapest MacBook Pro model available, then, but clearly still priced as a premium option.
In our MacBook Pro 13-inch (2022) review we came away impressed with the device because of its excellent performance and battery life. However, we also felt it was slightly redundant given there's no new design and the recent MacBook Air with the M2 chip is a better value-for-money option right now. Sure, the performance increase with the latest MacBook Pro device is nice, but it's generally more power than necessary for most.
Meanwhile, the new MacBook Air doesn't fall too far behind in terms of performance and will more than comfortably handle your everyday use as well as more involving tasks. Best of all? It has a fresh design, better battery life and starts at $100 / £100 less. Convinced? You can check out today's best MacBook Air deals.
When it was first released the MacBook Pro (13-inch) with an M1 chip offered a stark upgrade in processing power at a similar price range to the previous 2020 Intel model.
In our MacBook Pro 13-inch (2020) review, we found it certainly delivered on Apple's promise of a revolutionary experience. The performance saw a considerable boost from the new M1 hardware, even running legacy apps designed for previous Intel machines. The design was similar, but it was a seriously powerful machine with a price that even managed to undercut other high-end ultrabooks in value at the time.
Nowadays, though, this dated device is harder to find, not regularly on offer and not the best value for money when you can pay a little more for a newer device or just as capable MacBook Air M2.
14-inch MacBook Pro deals
The MacBook Pro 14-inch (2023) is one of two new laptops that were surprisingly announced by Apple in January. The standout feature is the inclusion of the latest M2 Pro and M2 Max chips that power the device, offering some extremely high levels of performance.
Of course, given this MacBook is so new, it's highly unlikely that we'll see any deals at this early stage. There is the outside chance of a very small discount at retailers such as Amazon or Walmart as we've seen this before for previous models. However, the odds are very low, so expect to pay full price for the next few months if you're interested in one of Apple's newest premium laptops.
Now we've had some proper hands-on time and published our MacBook Pro 14-inch (2023) review, we can safely say that this is a solid upgrade over the last generation model. The specification boost is worth the price bump, so creative professionals after a compact and portable workstation will definitely want this on your shopping list.
Even though it's now older, the MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) is still a standout device for creative professionals. This is a compact and powerful laptop that comes with a considerable number of ports so you can finally leave all those dongles and hubs in the cupboard.
In our MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) review, we found the M1 Pro chip at its core offers fine-tuned performance that takes it leaps and bounds above the competition. The battery life impresses, too, while the crisp Liquid Retina XDR display is one of Apple's best screens yet. Because of that, it received our Editor's Choice award, so it's still a good buy today even with the latest version getting a specs bump.
This device is probably a touch more than necessary for the general user: both in terms of power and price. Those still looking to jump onto the Apple ecosystem but don't need quite as much performance and features would be better to consider the MacBook Air or even an iPad.
16-inch MacBook Pro deals
The MacBook Pro 16-inch (2023) is the second of two new laptops that were announced by Apple in January. As with the smaller version, the headline inclusion is the latest M2 Pro and M2 Max chips that power the laptop to give it incredible performance for even the most intensive creative and productivity tasks.
Naturally, given this MacBook has only just been released, there are no deals available so far. We might see some discounts at select retailers in the weeks ahead, but if so, they will likely be very small - perhaps $100 / £100 max. Keep an eye on places such as Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy as these are the place most likely to offer a discount based on previous sales.
It could still be worth the investment at full price, though, if you need a powerful workstation with one of the best displays on a laptop. Those are the features we praised most in our MacBook Pro 16-inch (2023) review. It's also a significant improvement over an Intel-based MacBook, so those looking to upgrade from one of those older devices should find it to be a worthwhile investment.
The MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) simply couldn't be beaten when it was first released. Apple's huge overhaul of the 2019 MacBook Pro came with a substantial boost in power through the M1 Pro or M1 Max chip, sported a stunning mini-LED display and came packed with a host of other most-wanted new features.
We still think it's one of the best laptops for creative professionals according to our MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) review. Those after a more static workstation will appreciate the jump up to a 16-inch screen. Though, of course, the 14-inch is a lot better for portability. It's also substantially cheaper, too, so those who don't need all the excessive power and are on a smaller budget will do just as well going for the smaller version.
