Amazon has the 13-inch model on sale for just $844 during its Black Friday Week sale, or $255 off its $1,099 MSRP — a 23% savings and a new record-low. It's now less than $100 more than the M2 version, so it's easy to recommend over its predecessor for future-proofing's sake.

SAVE $300: As of Nov. 27, the ASUS ROG Strix G16 is on sale for $1,099.99 in the Amazon Black Friday sale. That's a 21% saving on list price, and the lowest it has ever been on Amazon.

So what are the best Black Friday MacBook deals so far? For me, it's the MacBook Air M2 for $749 on Amazon, which is $150 off. Meanwhile, the brand-new MacBook Pro 14-inch with the M4 chip is $125 off.
