If you need something bigger and don't mind it being tied to a desk: Apple updated its smaller iMac (formerly 21.5 inches, now 24 inches) in 2021, and it now comes in seven color options and runs on the company's M1 processor. Here are some tips on making the 720-pixel cameras in those other Macs look better. Only that dated-looking 13-inch M2 MacBook Pro retains the not-great old camera. Great webcam on the 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and the 13-inch Air 13-inch MacBook Pro webcam is still meh: The jump to a 1,080-pixel resolution camera in the newest MacBooks, as well as the 24-inch iMac, is a game-changer for people sitting in video meetings all day.

You can find it on the M2 13-inch MacBook Pro, which retains its dated design, despite having Apple's latest chip.

Apple is still offering education deals on MacBooks: Normally, the Apple Store is (ironically) not the best place to buy an Apple laptop (really, almost any Apple product) because sales are all but nonexistent.
