Overview
- Amazon cut the price of the 16‑inch MacBook Pro with the M5 Max chip (36GB RAM, 2TB SSD) to $3,499, a $900 reduction that multiple outlets reported late Sunday.
- The deepest markdown applies to the silver finish while Space Black listings for the same spec have shown smaller discounts, for example around $3,799.
- Amazon is running other concurrent Mac deals, including a 14‑inch M5 Pro 24GB/2TB at $2,699 and discounts on M5 MacBook Air models plus relisted launch prices for new M6 Mac mini and M5 Max Mac Studio units.
- Some discounted units were shown in stock with next‑day Prime delivery in many areas, but listings are SKU‑ and color‑specific and can sell out or revert quickly.
- The moves follow Apple’s summer device price increases and suggest retailers are selectively restoring older price points, which could pressure Apple pricing and offer short windows for consumers to save.
