Apple’s least pricey M3 MacBook Pro just dropped $200 to land at $1,399 shipped

Amazon is serving up an on-page coupon that knocks Apple’s most affordable current-generation M3 MacBook Pro down to $1,399 shipped. This is a regularly $1,599 machine that lands as the least expensive point of entry into the current MacBook Pro lineup. Now a straight up $200 off, this is matching our previous mention with discounted pricing available on both the Space Gray and Silver models. This configuration is selling for $1,449 at Best Buy unless you’re a paid member, for comparison’s sake. 

You can certainly land a less pricey current-generation Apple laptop by going with the Air lineup – it currently starts at $999 – but we are expecting prices to drop lower there soon. You can could also opt for the M2 MacBook Air that is currently selling for $849 new or $800 open-box, but if it’s the pro-grade M3 machine you’re after, today’s deal is the lowest price you’ll find. 

Apple’s M3 MacBook Pro delivers that pro-level experience without reaching nearly as deep into your pockets as the M3 Pro chip, never mind the pricey M3 Pro Max silicon. That in mind, it is more than capable of running your creative projects, be it Logic Pro sessions or Final Cut edits, providing you’re not trying to process an insane number of assets and the like.

The model on sale here today delivers an 8‑core CPU and 10‑core GPU to power the 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR Display alongside 512GB if built-in SSD storage and 8GB of RAM. Bumping up to 16GB model will run you $1,849 – stayed tuned to 9to5Toys for better deals on that config coming soon. 

Apple M3 MacBook Pro features:

The 14-inch MacBook Pro blasts forward with M3, an incredibly advanced chip that brings serious speed and capability. With industry-leading battery life—up to 22 hours—and a beautiful Liquid Retina XDR display, it’s a pro laptop without equal.
