Apple's next-gen M2 MacBook Pro is expected to launch later this year. However, the M1 MacBook Pro is still one of the best laptops to buy for its premium build and stellar performance.
Amazon currently offers the 512GB model M1 MacBook Pro for $1,249 via on-page coupon. Normally, this laptop fetches $1,499, so that's $250 in savings. This is the lowest price we've seen for this MacBook configuration.
So far, it's one of the best Apple deals we've tracked this season.
If you're on a smaller budget, you can get the 256GB model M1 MacBook Pro for $1,049 ($250 off).

Apple's MacBook Pro M1 notebook is one of the best laptops for photo and video editing. The laptop in this deal packs a 13.3-inch (2560 x 1600) Retina display, Apple M1 8-core CPU, 8GB of RAM, 8-core GPU and a 512GB SSD.
In our MacBook Pro M1 2020 review, we were floored by its lightning-fast SSD, comfortable Magic Keyboard, and stellar overall and gaming performance. Its battery endured 16 hours and 32 minutes on our Laptop Mag Battery Test which is pretty impressive. We gave the M1 MacBook Pro a rare rating of 5 out of 5 stars and our coveted Editor's Choice award.
During real-world tests, the M1 MacBook Pro had more than enough muscle to tackle the heavy workloads we threw its way. Even with 50 tabs open in Google Chrome — running Tweetdeck, Slack, YouTube, Tidal, Gmail, Google Sheets, and Twitch, the MacBook Pro M1 didn't slow down.
Design-wise, MacBook Pro M1's design engineers gave it the same iconic aluminum chassis and glossy Apple logo lineage. With a weight of 3 pounds and measuring 12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches, the MacBook Pro M1 is heavier than its competitors. It weighs just a little over that of the Dell XPS 13 (2.8 pounds, 11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches) and 13-inch HP Spectre x360 (2.7 pounds, 12.1 x 7.7 x 0.7 inches).
MacBook Pro deals are only as good as stock permits, so we recommend you grab one while you still can.
