As part of the ongoing Amazon Big Spring Sale, the deals on Apple’s M4 series MacBook Pro models have been flying with pricing still kicking off from $1,399, or $200 off, on the base model. But we wanted to touch down this morning to highlight a couple of the 24GB models that are now sitting at $220 off the going rates to match the lowest prices of the year. This includes an upgraded 1TB M4 model, but you’ll want to head below for more details as you can also score an M4 Pro variant at the same price right now.
Deciding between the M4 and M4 Pro MacBook Pro model largely comes down to price for most folks. It’s really a matter of deciding whether or not you really need the extra M4 Pro horsepower and if you’re really willing to spend the cash on one. Everyone wants the extra M4 Pro power – cause’ why not? – but if you don’t really need it you really don’t need to spend the cash on it.
Then it comes down to deciding your configuration – do you need 24GB of RAM? An upgraded SSD? There a couple of notable deals to scope out today if you do.
Firstly, Amazon is offering the 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro upgraded with 24GB of RAM and a 1TB internal SSD down at $1,779 shipped. That’s $220 off the regular $1,999 list price and on par with the lowest price we have tracked this year.
But how much do you value that 1TB of storage here?
Amazon is also offering the more powerful 14-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD down at the same $1,779 shipped list price right now.
Now there’s nothing particular new about this decision as both of these models carry the same $1,999 list price from Apple. But it certainly begs the question – how much do you need the double storage action?
For me it’s an easy answer – go for the horsepower on the M4 Pro all the way and stick a portable SSD in there, no questions asked. For some it might not be so easy. I do know folks that seriously value the upgraded storage – I often times tell them they are wrong and don’t, but hey, to each their own.
Either way we are looking at a match of the lowest prices we have tracked this year on these models and a great chance to score $220 off the list price on a shiny new M4 series MacBook Pro.
