UPDATE: Nov. 10, 2023, 4:37 p.m. EST This post has been updated with the latest MacBook deals, including the first discount on the M3 and M3 Pro MacBooks.
Here are our favorite early Black Friday MacBook deals as of Nov. 10:
15-inch MacBook Air (M2, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD)
(Save $150)
2022 MacBook Air (M2, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD)
(Save $150)
14-inch MacBook Pro (M3, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD)
(Save $50 with a My Best Buy membership)
It’s no secret that Apple MacBooks aren’t the cheapest laptops out there — especially with the release of the $7,199-plus MacBook Pro.
While that particular model hasn’t gone on sale just yet, plenty of other early Black Friday MacBook deals are already live. Though you’ll probably have minimal trouble picking up a discounted MacBook on the actual day of Black Friday on Nov. 24 or Cyber Monday on Nov. 27, there are plenty of options worth checking out ahead of the holiday.
As of Nov. 7, most configurations of the 15-inch MacBook Air that came out in 2023 are on sale for at least $250 off. You’ll also see savings on newer and older MacBook Pros, as well as M1 and M2 iMacs and Mac minis, respectively. You can check out all the discounts live so far below.

14-inch MacBook Pro (M3, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD)
Why we like it
The M3-lineup of Macs and MacBooks was announced less than two weeks ago, and we’ve already seeing their first deal. Best Buy will be giving its My Best Buy members exclusive access to this $50 off deal. With its upgrades, you can expect lightning-fast speeds, a spacious 14-inches of display that doesn’t come with a $2,000-plus premium, and finally, no touchbar. If you’re into an even higher-powered machine, Best Buy is also giving members a $50 markdown on the 14-inch and 16-inch M3 Pro MacBook Pros.

Check out our full review of the 15-inch MacBook Air.
The 15-inch MacBook Air is an official recipient of a Mashable Choice award. Why? Its M2 processor will power you through everyday tasks to multimedia editing with ease, and gives you the proper display space to actually do it. Its long-lasting battery life doesn’t hurt either. Though it’s not quite as light and portable as the rest of the Air line, it’s an exceptional upgrade pick that doesn’t quite reach the $2,000-plus heights of the Pro line. At the time of writing, the 256GB configuration of this laptop does have the more significant discount, but the power and display size of this laptop is best suited for the creative person who will probably appreciate the extra built-in storage. Grab it on sale at Amazon and Best Buy.

Check out our full review of the M2 MacBook Air.
If you’re looking for a zippy work-from-home machine or the perfect school companion, look no further. Though Apple did just release the new M3 chip to its iMac and MacBook lineup, the M2 is still plenty powerful. You’ll also get 13.6 inches of display (as opposed to the 13.3 inches of the previous gen Air), a near-perfect keyboard, and best of all, this laptop is just $50 away from its lowest price ever. Grab it from Best Buy or B&H.
