While the new M4 MacBook Pro is now available for pre-order at Amazon, Best Buy is offering up to $150 off for its members and the elevated trade-in values are now live. Much like we featured for the M4 iMac and M4 Mac mini thereafter, Best Buy is getting aggressive with its trade-in values offering $960 off the new M4 models with a base model M3 MacBook Pro, $1,200 with the base M3 Pro variant, and even more than that with upgraded configurations. Head below for a closer look at the details and how to score a huge discount on your shiny new M4 or M4 Pro MacBook Pro with an M3 flip. 

How to score a deal on the new M4 MacBook Pro – discounts, elevated trade-ins, more

As per usual, the trade-in value you see at Best Buy is entirely dependent on the model you have to trade-in. While you will want to double check what Apple might offer you, Best Buy is offering some notable value here and can offer even better prices, especially if you can stack the My Best Buy member discounts or have some Best Buy store credit in the holster. 

There are tons of different trade value potential here, but let’s take a couple examples to look at. As of right now, Best Buy is offering $960 against the new M4 MacBook Pro if you trade-in the base model M3 MacBook Pro with 8GB of RAM and the 512GB SSD. That number jumps up to $1,200 with the base model M3 Pro MacBook Pro with 18GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. 

Using the new base model 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM as part of our example here, that means you can land the regular $1,599 machine down at $639 if you flip the base model. Folks looking to score the base model M4 Pro model can land one at $799 trading in the base model M3 Pro. Needless to say those are seriously notable prices considering you’d be lucky to score a MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM under $850. 

Let’s use these two examples. Here’s how to make this happen – you’ll need to follow these steps to see the best values in our experience: 

  1. Navigate to the M4 MacBook Pro configuration you’re after – 14-inch M4, 14-inch M4 Pro, or 16-inch models – and add the configuration you want to your cart. 
  2. Then navigate to your cart, and hit the “Check Trade-In Value” button. 
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions – hit Apple and MacBook Pro in the appropriate menus
  4. And then hit the “Search” button at the bottom and select the gear you have to trade-in from the results
  5. On the next screen, choose “Good” condition and “Yes” for the accessories question in the options presented
  6. Then hit Add to cart to start the checkout process
  7. This will then load up your cart with both the new M4 MacBook Pro of your choice and the trade-in gear. 

If you chose the base model M3 MacBook Pro 8GB, you’ll see a $960 value on the trade, and $1,200 on the base model M3 Pro. 

Here are some quick links to the most popular configurations of the M4 MacBook Pro – the prices below reflect the My Best Buy member discount that stack with the trade-in values detailed above as well:
