Summary
Up to $1,000 in promotional cash back is available to MacBook Pro owners who preorder a Surface Laptop Ultra, on top of the laptop’s normal trade-in value.
The offer runs in the US and Canada through Nov. 23, with buyers required to purchase first, file an online claim, and mail in an eligible MacBook within 15 days for evaluation.
Microsoft’s trade-in site showed one 2025 16-inch MacBook Pro valued at $2,115; with the full bonus, that could reach $3,115, though final payouts depend on model, condition and eligibility.
The Surface Laptop Ultra starts at $2,599.99 and ships from Oct. 16, giving Microsoft a direct financial lever to pull premium laptop users away from Apple rather than competing on specs alone.
