Apple released new MacBook Pros in late October 2024. The 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro bring new M4 chips, but they also offer more RAM than the previous generation.

When the M4 MacBook Pro was introduced, Apple also doubled the RAM in the M3 MacBook Air from 8GB to 16GB as standard.

Weve seen resellers switch to selling refurbished or used when the stock of brand-new models run out, so check that the model discounted isnt actually a used Mac and therefore not as good a deal as it might look. Thats not to say you should avoid refurb models you just need to make sure that you arent buying refurb without knowing. Mac deals arent limited to Black Friday. We see good deals all year round, so dont feel pressured into buying during Black Friday.
