If you are wondering if MacBooks will be on sale for Prime Day you will be glad to learn that yes, you can get money off MacBooks at Amazon.

This is, in fact, true for most of the year, but the best MacBook deals tend to happen during Amazon’s big sales events. With Prime Day kicking off on Tuesday, July 16, and continuing for 48 hours until it all ends at midnight on July 17 this could be a great time to save money on a new Mac laptop.

Below you will find links to the best MacBook Air and MacBook Pro deals on Amazon. Be sure to check this page often as the deals change all the time. Note that as these models go out of stock Amazon may offer a refurbished model in place, or may redirect to a different model, so do check for this.

If it’s an iMac or Mac mini you are after check out our separate round-up of the best Amazon Prime Day Mac deals. We also round up the Best Prime Day Apple Deals.
