Need a new Mac? A new Prime Day is here to bring the deals

If you’re in the market for a new Mac, the good news is, yes, another Amazon Prime Day is coming—dubbed Prime Big Deal Days and running from just after midnight October 8 to midnight October 9. In our experience you can get discounts on Macs all year round, but, some of the best Mac discounts fall during Amazon’s sales.

The Amazon Prime Day sale is a great time way to save some money when buying a new Mac. The October sale comes at a time when you might be thinking about your holiday shopping, but whatever your reason for looking for a bargain, Prime Day is a great time to shop.

Below you will find links to the different types of Mac desktops available on Amazon, so it will be easy to find the best deals. If you aren’t sure which Mac to buy read our Mac buying guide where we compare every Mac and MacBook.

The Macs picked here are all chosen by our editors, who have decades of experience with Apple devices. We’ve reviewed everything we recommend and we won’t tell you to buy something that’s not an actual deal. The products below are all at or near all-time lows, and we’ve selected what we think is the best configuration for each product type. We know Apple is expensive, so we’ve chosen products at prices we would be willing to pay, so you can trust that our recommendations will steer you in the right direction—and save you big bucks.

During the 48 hours of Amazon October Prime Deals Day we will be tracking the sales, so be sure to check this page often as the deals change constantly. We also have a round-up of all the Apple Amazon Prime Day deals so check it out if you need other Apple gear.
