Amazon advertised a $900 discount on a high-end 16-inch MacBook Pro on September 27, cutting the listed price from $4,399 to $3,499.
MacRumors reported that the discounted configuration includes Apple’s M5 Max chip, a 32-core GPU, 36GB of unified memory and a 2TB SSD. The publication described it as one of the strongest discounts it had seen on the 2026 MacBook Pro after price increases earlier in the summer.
A second 16-inch configuration with 48GB of memory and a 2TB SSD was listed for $4,499, down from $4,999.
The price is a snapshot, not a standing offer
Amazon prices and inventory can change without notice, so the $3,499 figure reflects the offer MacRumors observed on September 27 rather than a guaranteed future price. Buyers should confirm the seller, exact configuration, shipping estimate and return terms before ordering.
The report also contains affiliate links. MacRumors discloses that it may receive a payment when readers click through and complete a purchase. That arrangement does not change the listed configuration or discount, but it is relevant context for a deal article.
The discount applies to a premium M5 Max model rather than the entry-level MacBook Pro. Its appeal depends on whether a buyer needs the additional graphics capability, memory and storage; shoppers comparing less demanding workloads may find a lower-spec model more economical even without the same headline markdown.
