The ultimate Mac laptop, this model comes with a Core i9 processor, 16GB of RAM, 1TB SSD, and AMD Radeon Pro 5500M graphics. This is biggest price drop ($400 off) we've seen for this specific configuration. 

The 16-inch MacBook Pro is the laptop of choice for video editors, web developers, music creators and other professionals. 

This model on sale packs a 16-inch (3072 x 1920-pixel) Retina display, 2.6 GHz Core i7 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.

If you need a machine with more kick, Amazon also has the Core i9-powered model on sale for $2,399 via on-page coupon. 

In our MacBook Pro 16-inch review, we loved its Magic Keyboard, big 16-inch screen with slim bezels and powerful CPU performance. We gave it a near perfect rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars and the Editor's Choice award for its overall greatness and impressive 10 hours and 55 minute battery life.  

In terms of performance, the 16-inch MacBook Pro is one of the most powerful laptops in its class. In one test, it took Apple's system 8 minutes to transcode a 6.5GB 4K video to 1080p which is on par with the Dell XPS 15's time. 

Weighing in at 4.3 pounds and measuring 14.1 x 9.7 x 0.6 inches, the 16-inch MacBook Pro is a bit heavier and larger than the 15-inch MacBook Pro (4 pounds, 13.8 x 9.5 x 0.6 inches). By comparison, it's lighter than the new Dell XPS 15 (4.5 pounds, 13.5 x 9 x 0.7-inches). 

So if you're looking for a great value on the lightweight, yet powerful MacBook Pro, we recommend you take advantage of this deal.
