The best MacBook deals in March 2025
All the lowest prices for Apple's premium laptops

Following the announcement of the new MacBook Air M4, we've been blessed with some extremely good MacBook deals. This includes new record-low prices on all previous models of Apple's popular and highly-rated laptops, making now an excellent time to buy. I've gathered all of the best prices below for you to check out.
The strongest offers are in the US, where you can find the MacBook Air M3 for as low as $799. The even older M2 version was down to $699 for a short while, but it's currently out of stock at most retailers. It's probably worth spending extra to get the newer model anyway as it's still one of the best MacBooks you can buy.
As for the MacBook Air M4, there are a handful of preorder deals available. The best offers rely on you trading in your existing device to get the biggest savings. I've dropped those options below, too. Once we get some proper hands-on time, we'll be able to tell you if it deserves a spot in our best laptops list.
Remember to also check if you're eligible for extra savings thanks to the Apple student discount and the exclusive additional discounts for My Best Buy members.

Apple's MacBook Air with the M3 chip is currently our pick for the best laptop you can buy right now, and this price cut brings the newest version with 16GB of RAM down to a new record-low price. Windows 11 laptops at this price point just can't compare, and this is an ideal offer if you're looking for a thin, light and dependable laptop to use for school and work. The upcoming M4 model costs $200 more than this as well, so it's a better option if you're on a budget.

The MacBook Air 13-inch (M4) is the brand-new version of Apple's popular laptop. Its 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display looks great while 16GB of memory keeps all your programs running smoothly. A price of $999 is impressive enough considering that's $100 cheaper than the standard price of the previous model, but it's even better to bag it for $449 if you have a MacBook Air (M3) to trade in. Even more, Best Buy Plus and Total members save an additional $50, too.

Amazon has surprised us all by dropping the MacBook Air M2 down to an all-new record-low price. This is the version with only 8GB of RAM, though, so I'd recommend paying the extra to get the M3 version as it's newer and doubles the amount of RAM for better performance. However, if you're on a tight budget this is still a solid laptop for those needing a premium powerhouse for creative apps. We rated it highly in our MacBook Air M2 review, thanks to the stylish design, clear display, impressive performance, and long 18-hour battery life.

It blows my mind that Walmart still has stock of the MacBook Air M1 after dropping it to a new lowest-ever price of $599 over Black Friday. It's slightly more expensive right now – and newer M2, M3 and M4 models are available – but this is still excellent value for money for a powerful all-around laptop. Our MacBook Air M1 review awarded the device 4.5 stars out of five, praising Apple's premium device for its speed, responsiveness, beautiful design and long-lasting battery life.
How to find the best MacBook deals
MacBook deals are fairly regular, but Apple doesn't tend to discount these machines by a whole lot as they are premium devices that are built to last. That means Apple usually waits a long time to slash the price of its older MacBook models following the launch of a new generation. Even still, picking up an older but still capable MacBook is often the way to get the best deal.
As for when is the best time to buy, the good news is that MacBook sales are fairly common around certain times of the year. There are small price cuts every so often and after new releases, but the major discounts are held back until the biggest shopping events of the year such as Black Friday and the back-to-school sales. With that in mind, it's best to keep an eye out for superior MacBook deals in July and November.
Is a MacBook worth it?
Sure, it's a hefty initial investment, but buying a MacBook can be worth it in the long run. Apple's laptops are built with longevity in mind, so they offer excellent value over other devices that you may need to replace every couple of years.
It's also worth checking out the Best Buy discounts and Apple promo codes currently available for other ways to save on your purchase.
