The Apple M3 MacBook Air is the latest to carry the iconic name so it’s no surprise that it’s also the best. It’s more powerful than ever while still retaining a thin and light design. But such a laptop is never going to be cheap which means it is all the more vital that buyers take advantage of an incredible $250 savings across both the 13- and 15-inch models at Amazon. These prices are the best that we’ve seen to date, putting a new MacBook Air in your laptop bag for as little as $850. However, we don’t know how long these prices are going to last so be sure to factor that into any buying decision you might be considering.

The current MacBook Air lineup sports gorgeous 13.6- and 15.4-inch Retina displays and a blazing-fast M3 chip. That chip is paired with 8GB of unified memory, as well as a 256GB solid-state drive. Other notable specifications include a 1080p FaceTime HD camera and a battery that will no doubt outlast your desire to get stuff done. It’ll charge via one of the USB-C ports if required, while a dedicated MagSafe 3 charging port is also offered. Use that and you’ll have two free Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports available for connecting docks and accessories.
