(Image credit: Future)

The 4th of July sales are here, and they're bringing some fantastic MacBook deals with them. Whether you're after the turbo-powered 2020 MacBook Air or you want to enjoy even bigger savings on the latest MacBook Pros, this weekend's sales are bringing prices down on everything from entry-level configurations to some of the most powerful builds available.

You'll find most of these MacBook deals come from Amazon this weekend, with B&H Photo picking up the slack where stock has given out on the former. With Amazon's propensity for price-matching the cheapest competitor, you can feel pretty safe in the knowledge that you're getting the best 4th of July MacBook sales available right now.

We're seeing prices starting at just $899 right now, and that's on an excellent 256GB 2020 MacBook Air. However, if you're playing with a bit more budget you'll also find a $100 saving on the 512GB MacBook Pro as well. Shopping further up the price scale, and the biggest saving in this weekend's MacBook deals belongs to the 16-inch Pro. You'll find $300 chopped off the super premium 1TB model, or the slightly cheaper 512GB version available for $2,149.

We don't know if these Fourth of July MacBook sales will last beyond the weekend, and they're certainly proving popular already. That means we wouldn't wait too long if you see a deal you like.
