Amazon has slashed $500 off the price of Apple’s 14-inch MacBook Pro equipped with the M5 Max chip and a 2TB SSD, bringing its cost down to $3,599 just as Black Friday deals begin rolling out. This configuration—boasting an 18-core CPU, 32-core GPU, and 36GB of RAM—typically sells for $4,099, making this one of the deepest discounts seen so far.
What You’re Getting and Where the Value Is
This is the high-end 14-inch MacBook Pro with Space Black finish and a large 2TB SSD—double the base 1TB storage found in Apple’s entry model. The unit’s specs include the M5 Max chip, which offers top-tier performance geared toward demanding workloads like video editing, development, and professional graphics work.
The discounted price isn’t just limited to this model; similar $500 savings are available on the 16-inch version with comparable storage and GPU configurations. Amazon and B&H have matching deals across the lineup for users who want more screen real estate.
Other MacBook Pro Deals to Watch This Weekend
Beyond the 14-inch M5 Max offer, there are several other noteworthy deals across the MacBook Pro family happening this weekend:
- A 14-inch M5 (10-core CPU/GPU, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) dropping to about $1,797.
- A 14-inch M5 Pro with 15-core CPU/16-core GPU and 24GB RAM (1TB SSD) for approximately $2,239.
- A 14-inch M5 Pro version with 2TB SSD for around $2,634.
- The 14-inch M5 Pro equipped with even stronger graphics (18-core CPU/20-core GPU) hitting about $2,799.99.
- On the larger side, the 16-inch MacBook Pro M5 Max model with 2TB SSD is similarly discounted by $500, landing near $3,899.
These deals are part of early Black Friday sales and may only be available while inventory lasts. Prices can shift quickly over the weekend.
All things considered, the $500 markdown on the 14-inch MacBook Pro M5 Max with 2TB SSD marks one of the most substantial discounts yet, particularly for Apple’s higher-spec machines.
What this means:For creatives, developers, or power users who’ve waited to upgrade to an M5 Max machine, this is a rare opportunity to stretch their dollar. If you’ve weighed price vs. performance, now might be the moment. Watch for availability, and act fast—once these deals vanish, it may be a while before we see savings this deep again.
