Prime Day 2025 is here from Tuesday, July 8 to Friday, July 11, and Lifehacker is sharing the best sales based on product reviews, comparisons, and price-tracking tools.
The MacBook Pro is a go-to for artists, filmmakers, and even programmers who need a bit more performance from their machines. It’s still relatively thin and light, and now that Apple’s in-house silicon has had more time to mature, it’s got great compatibility with the most popular productivity software on top of some of the best battery life on the market. There are three major versions available, depending on which chip you want, and all are already discounted for Prime Day.

The deals start at $1,429 ($170 off), which will net you a MacBook Pro with a standard M4 chip, 16GB of memory, and 512GB of storage. That makes this model the closest option to a MacBook Air, although its fan will help keep it cooler longer, and you can spend a bit more to up your memory or storage if you want. Plus, the 14.2-inch display on this model isn’t available in the Air series, which only comes in either 13 inches or 15 inches.
If you up your budget to $1,799 ($200 off), you’ll get the faster M4 Pro chip, as well as bump up your memory to 24GB. An extra $350 will double your storage, too, if you find you need to keep a lot of files on your drive at once. Alternatively, paying a total of $2,615 ($284 off) will double your RAM, plus give you a 16.2-inch screen.
Finally, there are three M4 Max models on sale, which will net you the most performance as well as savings. The cheapest one is currently $2,874 ($325 off) and comes with 36GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and a 14.2-inch screen. For $3,149 ($350 off), you’ll also get you 36GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, but a bigger 16.2-inch screen. The most expensive model is $3,596 ($404 off) and comes with 48GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and a 16.2-inch screen. That’s likely overkill for most people, but saving over $400 is attractive.
What do you think so far?
All the above deals are available in two colors, and you’re free to pick either without affecting your price—not always a guarantee in events like these. You can also add three years of AppleCare+ onto any of these deals for an additional charge, although how much the bundle will save you depends on which model you’re buying.
