If you are thinking of buying a new computer from Apple, now is the best time to do it since the company debuted several new models in October. Unlike the iPhones, which are regularly updated every year, Apple's line of computers usually stay put for the next couple of years before they get an update.

Compared to Windows computers, Apple's lineup has always been pretty much straightforward and minimalist. However, choosing the best Apple computer can still be a confusing, and sometimes overwhelming, decision.

Which Apple Computer To Get For Yourself

To help cut through the confusion, here are some of the best Apple deals, which you can still get just in time for Christmas:

MacBook

If you are looking for a compact and lightweight Mac model, this is the one for you. It weighs 2 pounds, and is 13.1 mm thick. The 12-inch display screen and 10 hours of battery life are perfect for every day simple computing tasks such as word processing and internet surfing.

MacBook Air

If you are looking for affordability, the 13-inch MacBook Air fits the bill. It is the most popular and the cheapest laptop in Apple's lineup. Unfortunately, this laptop has a low resolution compared to its flashier siblings. But if you are looking for a workhorse computer that will last you all day without burning a hole in your pocket, this is the one for you.

MacBook Pro

Fresh from an update, the new MacBook Pro is now thinner and sleeker. You can choose between the 13-inch and the 15-inch models, both of which comes with a Touch Bar. The bigger MacBook Pro is Apple's most premium laptop, equipped with an Intel Core i7 processor, a Radeon Pro 450 graphics card, and four USB-C ports. If you want a larger screen, a higher display resolution, and a faster processor, then spring for the 15-inch MacBook Pro.

iMac

If you prefer desktops to laptops, the 21.5-inch iMac with Retina 4K display is just the perfect candidate. However, if screen size and graphics will be a factor, then choose the 27-inch iMac which comes with a Retina 5K display.

Purchasing a new Mac computer is a huge investment on your part. Depending on the model you choose, it will cost you a lot of money so make sure to buy the right one that will meet your needs. There is an Apple computer for everyone-from the student who has a limited budget to the professional who prefers all the bells and whistles.
