Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch, M4: was $1,599 now $1,399 at Amazon

The MacBook Pro with the base M4 chip adds a fan for better sustained performance. You also get a 512GB SSD, a far superior mini LED display, and far more ports than the MacBook Air. We've seen it go as low as $1,299 before, but if you're in need of a good laptop, this isn't bad.

In our tests, Apple's M4 processor has excelled in our benchmarks. On laptops like the 15-inch MacBook Air and the 14-inch MacBook Pro, the chip has continued to enable all-day battery life. In the Mac Mini, M4 allows for a tiny, quiet design that is speedy and powerful.

For those who don't need Windows — or are looking to move away from it, the latest generation of Macs can provide plenty of power and longevity. All of these devices can run macOS 26 Tahoe with Apple's new "liquid glass" aesthetic. It's also a great time to update to the MacBook Air as one of the best college laptops.

Macs command premium price tags because of their strong build quality and brand cache. Prime Day is as good a day as any to take advantage of a deal and save where you can.
