MacBook deals for Cyber Monday 2024: Our advice

There are a few things to consider before you make a purchase. Apple released the newest M4 MacBook Pro models in late October 2024. The 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models bring new M4 chips, but they also offer more RAM than the previous generation. This means that when considering deals on older M3 Macs it is important to account for the fact that there may be less RAM in those models, especially since Apple usually charges $200/£200 to upgrade from 8GB to 16GB. Also M3 Pro and M3 Max MacBooks had less RAM previously, now they have 24GB RAM as standard, rather than 18GB.

This doesn’t only apply to the MacBook Pro. When the M4 MacBook Pro was introduced, Apple also doubled the RAM in the M3 MacBook Air from 8GB to 16GB as standard, effectively a $200/£200 price cut. So it is important to pay attention to how much RAM is included in an M3 MacBook Air, or you might not be getting the bargain you think you are.

Does Apple discount Macs for Cyber Monday?

Apple doesn’t drop prices for Cyber Monday or 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 M4 MacBook Pro models, Mac mini, and iMac aren’t included for 2024.

2024 2023 2022
15-inch MacBook Air $200 $200 n/a
13-inch MacBook Air $175 $175 $150
13-inch MacBook Air (M2) $150 $150 $150
Mac mini $100 $100
14-inch & 16-inch MacBook Pro $250
iMac $150

Is Apple’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday offer worth it?

If you want to buy a MacBook Air in 2024 from Apple, taking advantage of Apple’s deal will mean you get a $200/£160 Apple Gift Card with purchases of the 15-inch MacBook Air (M3), a $175/£140 Apple Gift Card with a 13-inch MacBook Air (M3), and $150/£120 Apple Gift Card with a 13-inch MacBook Air (M2).

Buying from Apple means you are guaranteed to be buying the latest MacBook Air with 16GB RAM as standard, whereas other resellers may be clearing old stock with 8GB RAM. You then have a voucher to spend on other products from Apple – and since many of us have money going out on a monthly basis thanks to subscriptions, this could be a real saving where it matters.

However, there are plenty of good deals to be found, as detailed above. Just make sure you are buying the 16GB RAM model or getting a reasonable discount if not.

Cyber Monday shopping tips

  • We tend to find that the biggest savings are on older models, but be aware that these aren’t always the best value for money.
  • Check the generation of the model that is discounted to make sure you know exactly what you are buying and what it’s really worth.
  • We’ve seen resellers switch to selling refurbished or used when the stock of brand-new models run out, so check that the model discounted isn’t actually a used Mac and therefore not as good a deal as it might look.
  • That’s not to say you should avoid refurb models – you just need to make sure that you aren’t buying refurb without knowing.
  • Mac deals aren’t limited to Black Friday. We see good deals all year round, so don’t feel pressured into buying during Black Friday.
