They were launched less than two months ago, they are outstanding products, and yet Amazon is offering substantial discounts on them.

The M4 represents as much of a philosophical shift as it does a performance upgrade. It is Apple acknowledging that if you’re buying a laptop with “Pro” in the name, than it should be a better machine.

Following a few all-time low prices on the MacBook Air this morning, Amazon is now discounting multiple M4 MacBook Pro models to new low prices

Amazon has dropped the price on the M4 MacBook Pro to $1,399, which is $200 down from its usual $1,599 price. While 13% off might not sound huge, any discount on current-generation Apple products is a win, and this matches the lowest price we’ve seen on this configuration.

The brand-new M4 Pro MacBook Pro 14-inch has hit a new record low price of $1,749, with units in stock with free expedited shipping. This pre-Black Friday Apple deal may sell out or end soon, with limited supply available at the reduced price.

I tested a beautiful Space Black MacBook Pro with the new M4 Pro chip and 48GB memory (which I would treasure if it belonged to me).

That's according to prominent display analyst Ross Young, anyway. Young took to X on Thursday to point out that Apple has adopted a "quantum dot" display for the M4 MacBook Pro.

This specific configuration of the M4 Pro has a 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. The 16GB of RAM is particularly noteworthy, as it’s the new standard for Apple. That makes this a better deal than some of the M3 models with 8GB of RAM.
