Save $220 on the 13-inch MacBook Pro at Amazon for Cyber Monday

13-inch MacBook Pro deal from Amazon for Cyber Monday 2020
Amazon/Apple Inc.

We’re right in the middle of Cyber Monday and those Cyber Monday deals just keep coming in. And on Amazon that’s especially true. So if you’re looking for a new MacBook Pro, chances are you’ll find a great discount among all those Amazon Cyber Monday deals. Just take a look at this one we just found:

a 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro

at a $220 discount.

A 15% discount is nothing to sneeze at when it means you can save $220. Marked down from $1,499, this 13-inch MacBook Pro only costs $1,279.

With this deal, you’re getting a MacBook Pro that has a quad-core, eighth-generation Intel Core i5 processor, a Retina display, a Touch Bar, Touch ID, a spacious 512GB of SSD storage, a backlit Magic keyboard, two Thunderbolt 3 ports, and 8GB of RAM. Though this MacBook Pro is on the smaller side at 13-inches, those who value portability may prefer that size and given the features we listed above, it’s not like they’re missing out on much. This MacBook Pro is also expected to provide up to 10 hours of battery life.

Digital Trends reviewed the 13-inch MacBook Pro and it received positive feedback about its display, its “thin and light design,” and of course its new Magic Keyboard, which we called “fantastic” and “a quiet, comfortable keyboard.” We found the battery life a bit disappointing, however, and we said at the time that you “can expect around 6 to 7 hours on a single charge.”

But maybe you’re not really into the 13-inch MacBook Pro. Not to worry, you have other options. Like

this deal from Best Buy: a 13.3-inch  MacBook Air

for just $850. And since it was marked down from $950, you’ll save $100 on this deal and get a MacBook Air that features a Retina display, a backlit Magic Keyboard, Touch ID, 8GB of RAM, a 10th-generation Intel Core i3 processor, 256GB of SSD storage, a Force Touch trackpad, and two Thunderbolt 3 ports. It’s also expected to have a battery life of up to 11 hours.

Upgraded the MacBook upgrade program for everyone

Technology advances so fast, if you use your devices professionally, it seems like you really do need to upgrade your devices every couple of years. If you want to be on the bleeding edge there's no choice. But that can also get super expensive, and reselling or trading-in devices can be quite a hassle. While Apple and others have made upgrading devices easy, there’s now a service that lets you pay monthly for a Macbook, with AppleCare+, and gives you the option to upgrade every two years.

It’s called Upgraded, and the brand collaborates with Apple Premier Partners, meaning officially recognized sellers. That results in hassle-free upgrade support for you whenever you're ready. Go check it out for yourself, or keep reading to learn how it all works.

We gave this MacBook Pro alternative a 9 out of 10, and it’s on sale
Asus ProArt P16 front angled view showing display and keyboard.

Even with the discounts from MacBook deals, Apple's MacBook Pro remains pretty expensive. Here's a slightly more affordable MacBook Pro alternative: the Asus ProArt P16, which is on sale from Best Buy at $200 off for a lowered price of $1,700 from $1,900. It's still not budget-friendly, but that's an excellent price for a laptop of its capabilities. And if you like the power and style of a MacBook but prefer Windows, this is a good option. You're going to have to be quick with your purchase though, as there's no telling how much time is left before you miss out on the savings.

Why you should buy the Asus ProArt P16 laptop
We reviewed the Asus ProArt P16 as a legitimate MacBook Pro competitor with a rating of 9 out of 10 stars, as it's a very fast laptop with a relatively affordable price. It's powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card, with 32GB of RAM that's recommended by our laptop buying guide for running intensive applications and engaging in content creation. The Asus ProArt P16 also features a gorgeous 16-inch OLED touchscreen with 4K resolution, the Asus DialPad that's a circular indentation in the touchpad with an embedded button that provides additional functionality for various apps, and military-grade toughness for guaranteed durability.
