Ive covered Amazon Prime Day for 7 years. Here are the MacBook deals I think well see this time.

Prime Day 2026 is nearly upon us — and so is one of the best times to get a deal on a MacBook. I’ve covered Amazon’s flagship summer sale for seven years straight now, and I’ve noticed that Apple’s laptops always fall to extra-low prices as part of the festivities. (If they don’t hit record-lows, they at least get close.)

Every current MacBook is already on sale ahead of Prime Day, which runs from June 23 to 26, but I wouldn’t recommend grabbing one just yet. Amazon likes to save its best deals for Prime Day proper, meaning their discounts will likely increase once the sale starts next week. We could even get our first big discount on the new budget MacBook Neo; this is its first Prime Day ever.

Read on for my predictions for the best Prime Day MacBook deals, from the Neo to the M5 MacBook Air and the M5 MacBook Pros. Now is also a good time to check out my separate MacBook buying guide if you’re not sure which model is right for you.

Prime Day MacBook Neo deals to look for

Amazon hasn’t been totally resistant to putting the Neo on sale — it’s been $9 off for several weeks now — but it doesn’t get the same big price cuts as Apple’s other laptops. (This is probably because it’s already a bargain at full price.) With that in mind, I wouldn’t count on Amazon matching Apple’s $100 student discount on Prime Day; it’s still the best way to buy the Neo if you’re eligible. But I could see Amazon dropping the base model to $549, or $50 off, luring back-to-school shoppers who don’t quality for Apple’s education pricing.

Prime Day MacBook Air deals to look for

Last year’s 13- and 15-inch M4 MacBook Airs got $150 discounts for Prime Day 2025, but we’ve already seen the newer M5 models go on sale for $200 off this spring. While those deals weren’t still live at the time of writing. I expect Amazon to revive them once Prime Day begins next week. Look for records low of $899 for the 13-inch configuration and $1,099 for its 15-inch sibling.

Prime Day MacBook Pro deals to look for

The base 14-inch MacBook Pro features an M5 chip, 16GB of RAM, and a terabyte of storage. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,549, or $150 off, but I wouldn’t add it to my cart just yet. It fell to $1,499 earlier this month, and that all-time low will likely return come Prime Day. You might have to be a little patient, though: Last year, an identically configured M4 MacBook Pro didn’t get a $200 discount until the fourth (last) day of the sale.

If you need even more power for professional creative or AI work, there’s also a 16-inch MacBook Pro that’s configurable with the M5 Pro or M5 Max chip. If anything, the starting M5 Max model is a relatively safe buy right now: It’s currently on sale at its record-low price of $3,349, or $250 off. (The M5 Pro base model is still $60-ish away from its own record low of $1,983.94, which would save you about $215.) However, its M4 Max counterpart also got much cheaper as Prime Day progressed last year — to the tune of over $400 off. When you’re dropping this much cash on a new laptop, I think it’s wise to wait and see if prices drop even further.
