Deals: Rare 1TB M4 MacBook Air offer at $200 off, M3 Air at $500 off list, MacBook Pro, iPhone controller, more

Today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is really all about the MacBook Air. Alongside ongoing deals on AirPods 4 and Mac mini, today we are focused on Apple’s most affordable MacBook – M4 MacBook Air models are still starting from $799, but we now have a rare deal on an upgraded 1TB configuration at $200 off (this is one you can’t even get on Amazon). Those offers join a chance at the 24GB M3 MacBook Air at $500 off the list price as well as the 1TB M4 Pro MacBook Pro up to $289 off and the BACKBONE One Gen 2 USB-C iPhone controller. Everything awaits below. 

Rare deal: Land a 1TB M4 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM at one of the best prices ever (Now $200 off)

As anyone who has followed our MacBook coverage over the last few weeks will know, the entire M4 MAcBook Air line at Amazon is $200 off, delivering the best prices we have tracked with options on sale across every configuration it offers from $799. However, much like we have seen with the M4/Pro Mac mini as of late, B&H offers some configuration you can’t buy at Amazon and you can now land a spec’d up 24GB 13-inch M4 MacBook Air with double the storage at 1TB with $200 in savings – the lowest price we have tracked on a 1TB M4 Air. Details below.

B&H is now offering the Sky Blue and Midnight 13-inch M4 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM and a 1TB internal SSD down at $1,399 shipped. This set would normally run you $1,599 from Apple and is seeing a solid $200 price drop. Again, this is the same amount of savings you’ll find across the more affordable and lower-tier models at Amazon (those are waiting below), but you won’t find this 1TB variant there.

B&H is an authorized Apple dealer and a respected one at that. We have been successfully featuring its Apple gear deals around for years, and have even purchased some of them ourselves – this configuration isn’t some cobbled together setup, but rather one you could buy customizing a 13-inch M4 MacBook Air at Apple, and one you don’t very often elsewhere.

If simply just do not need the 1TB of storage, there are, m of course far less pricey M4 MacBooks to scope out and you’ll find the best discounted pricing waiting below:

• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/256GB $799 (Reg. $999)
• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/512GB $999 (Reg. $1,199)
• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air 24GB/512GB $1,199 (Reg. $1,399)
• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/256GB $999 (Reg. $1,199)
• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air 16GB/512GB $1,199 (Reg. $1,399)
• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air 24GB/512GB $1,399 (Reg. $1,599)

Apple’s 2025 M4 MacBook Air still at some of the best prices ever from $799 (All configs $200 off)

Amazon has the 24GB M3 MacBook Air at $500 off the list price today ($200 under the M4 sale price)

We recently spotted a sweet deal on the 15-inch M3 MacBook Airwith the 214GB of RAM upgrade and the Midnight paint job down at $1,249 – that’s $350 under the price of the M4. But Amazon just knocked the same machine in the Starlight colorway down to $1,199 shipped.

While price comparison on the M3 MacBook Air can get a touch messy considering the prices effectively changed last fall when Apple nixed the 8GB RAM configurations (this, in turn made all of the remaining configurations much less expensive). But it works like this:

The 15-inch 24GB started life with an $1,899 list price before dropping to $1,699 thereafter. The comparable M4 MacBook Air model carries a list price at $1,599 and is currently on sale for $1,399.

That means today’s deal is $700 off the original price of the M3 24GB, $500 under its current list price, and $400 under the list price on the comparable M4. It is also $200 below the current sale price on the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air with the same 24GB/512GB setup.

In other words, if you can make what is for me still a compelling machine (I don’t know anyone with an M3 MacBook Air that hates it or thinks it’s anywhere near too slow or anything) work for you, this is a particularly value-packed purchase right now.

Apple’s 1TB M4 Pro MacBook Pro up to $289 off today, 36GB M4 Max model $300 off

While the particularly notable $300 price drops are still live at Amazon on the M4 MacBook Pro starting from $1,299, pricing on the more powerful M4 Pro machines has dropped down at Amazon this morning as well. One of the more standout offers here as the Space Black 14-inch M4 Pro modelwith the 24GB of storage and the upgraded 1TB SSD down at $2,112.35 shipped – that’s $287 off the list price.

While we have seen the silver variant, which is currently selling for $2,110.85, go for less over the last month or two, the Space Black model at $287 off the regular $2,399 list price is the best price we have tracked on Amazon since early June. Previous to that, it had only dropped any lower than that on two very short-lived occasions and is otherwise now at the lowest price we have tracked this year on Amazon.

Unlike what we saw, and see still seeing, with the M4 MacBook Air and M4 MacBook Pro that are both now at some of the lowest prices they have ever been offered for online, the M4 Pro has mostly been skipped over and didn’t see any particularly notable deals for Prime Day this year.

Let’s take a look at the best prices right now for both the M4 and M4 Pro models for reference – we are also seeing the M4 Max 14-inch with 36GB of RAM at $300 off the regular list price today as well:

• 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro 16GB/512GB from $1,299 (Reg. $1,599)
• 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro 16GB/1TB from $1,499 (Reg. $1,799)
• 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB from $1,699 (Reg. $1,999)
• 14-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 24GB/512GB from $1,762 (Reg. $1,999)
• 14-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB from $2,110 (Reg. $2,399)
• 14-inch M4 Max MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB from $2,899 (Reg. $3,199)

Rare deals on upgraded M4 Pro Mac mini configs live at up to $200 off: 24GB, 48GB, and 64GB setups

While we are still tracking a rare deal on the 24GB/256GB M4 Mac mini – the best price we have tracked on any 24GB Mac mini, we wanted to highlight some of the upgraded M4 Pro Mac mini offers on tap right now. For folks on fence about going right up to the Mac Studio, or those just looking for an elevated headless Mac system for a home studio and video editing suite, B&H has some equally as rare offers on upgraded models you can’t get on Amazon at up to $200 off right now.

The only M4 Pro Mac mini you can even score on Amazon is the base 24GB/512GB model. That one carries a $1,399 list price and is now down at $1,263.49 shipped – this particular model is lower at Amazon right now, but the upgraded variants you can’t get there are seeing some solid deals at B&H right now.

***Reminder: These aren’t some custom Frankenstein configs, B&H just happens to offer the official upgraded Apple configurations you can’t buy on Amazon.

• M4 Pro Mac mini 24GB/512GB $1,349 (Reg. $1,499)
• M4 Pro Mac mini 24GB/1TB $1,449 (Reg. $1,599)
• M4 Pro Mac mini 48GB/1TB $1,799 (Reg. $1,999)
• M4 Pro Mac mini 64GB/2TB $2,699 (Reg. $2,899)

It would stand to reason that anyone looking towards these upgraded M4 Pro Mac mini models might also have the Mac Studio in mind, otherwise you would just be going for a more affordable M4 Mini. While the M4 Pro is not the M4 Max you’ll score on the Studio, these mini models can be a great way to score a “studio-grade” machine without spending the Mac Studio money – the most affordable Mac Studio is on sale at $1,999 with 36GB of RAM and it will cost you $2,499 (on sale) to land a 48GB/1TB.

There other benefits of the Studio, in terms of the internal Cores, GPU, and so forth, but the upgraded minis are a great way to split the difference both in terms of horsepower and price.

Here are the latest deals on M4 Max Mac Studio for reference:

• M4 Max Mac Studio 36GB/1TB $1,999 ($200 off)
• M4 Max Mac Studio 36GB/2TB $2,399 ($200 off)
• M4 Max Mac Studio 48GB/1TB $2,499 ($200 off)
