How to choose a MacBook on Cyber Monday

If you need help in choosing what to buy from Cyber Monday MacBook deals, you’re going to want to check out our roundup of the best MacBooks. We highly recommend going for the latest model that you can afford, which is currently the lineup powered by the M4 processors. Apple’s newest chipset promises absolutely blazing performance, but going for older chipsets will also be fine if you don’t want to go beyond your intended budget. You should also get the largest SSD capacity that won’t make you go overboard.

You’ll have to select between the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro — the MacBook Air is recommended for most people with its slim and lightweight design, but you’re going to want to go for the MacBook Pro is you’re planning to use the laptop for professional creative work.

The screen size will also be a factor in your decision, as most models offer two options. You’ll want to go for a smaller display if you value portability and a larger display if you want a better look at your projects while you’re working on them.
