There’s a huge MacBook sale happening on Amazon — save up to $300

There’s a reason almost every computer reviewed by Mashable’s tech team gets compared to Apple’s MacBooks: They’re the closest thing we have to a gold standard of laptops.

If you need a new computer (or you’re looking to upgrade an existing device), you can’t go wrong with 2019’s Macbook Air or MacBook Pros, Tim Cook’s newest additions to the MacBook family. They just so happen to be on sale on Amazon as of Feb. 24 for up to 15% off, which is a pretty great deal considering Apple products enjoy discounts only once in a blue moon.

Here’s the lowdown:

MacBook Pro

A power user’s dream, the new Macbook Pros offer some of Apple’s best-ever graphics, Touch Bars with Touch ID, speedy processors suitable for gaming and video editing, and improved (but still butterfly, except on the 16-inch) keyboards. 

You’ve got two different versions to choose from: There’s a 13-inch MacBook Pro from last May that comes with either a 1.4GHz or 2.4GHz Intel Core i5 processor and Intel Iris Plus Graphics 645 or 655, respectively; and a 16-inch MacBook Pro from November that features a 3,072×1,920 display, six built-in speakers, AMD Radeon Pro 5000M series graphics, an improved thermal design, and a snazzy mic setup with a 40% hiss reduction.

Choose from the following configurations:

MacBook Air

Last summer’s refresh of the 13-inch MacBook Air didn’t make too many drastic changes to the ultrathin, ultralight laptop — the 2018 model had the exact same 1.6HG Intel Core i5 processor and Intel UHD Graphics 617 — but its quieter keyboard, Touch ID sensor, dual Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, and bright, True Tone-supporting Retina display were welcome additions. If you need a super portable computer that reaches its greatest potential when tasked with everyday computing duties (see: web browsing, word processing, and light photo/video editing), the MacBook Air is your gal.

Choose from the following configurations:

• Apple MacBook Air (8GB RAM, 128GB SSD) in gold or space gray — $999.99 (save $99.01)

• Apple MacBook Air (8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) in gold or silver — $1,999.99 (save $99.01)
