The Latest M2 MacBook Air Is Still $250 Off at Amazon – CNET [CNET]

You can still take advantage of this post-Prime Day deal and snag our favorite laptop of 2023 at the all-time low price of $1,049.

Discounts on the latest Apple devices are pretty rare in general. So it’s almost unbelievable that this holdover deal from last week’s big Prime Day sale is still available. The M2 MacBook Air is our overall favorite laptop on the market, and you can pick it up for the all-time low price of $1,049 right now at Amazon, which saves you a whopping $250. It’s surprising that a bargain this good hasn’t sold out or expired already, so we’d recommend getting your order in as soon as possible if you don’t want to miss out on these savings. 

Apple’s 15-inch MacBook Air is the largest Air model to date and offers an attractive option for those wanting a big-screen portable Mac without spending over the odds on a MacBook Pro. It’s essentially the same as the 13-inch MacBook Air, but with a larger, 15.3-inch display. It features the same M2 chip, Touch ID sensor, two USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, MagSafe charger and 18-hour battery life. Its screen supports up to 500 nits of brightness and up to 1 billion colors. And there’s a built-in 1080p camera for FaceTime calls too, as well as a three-mic array and six speakers for spatial audio support.

Despite offering a larger display, the 15-inch MacBook Air still feels thin and light, as CNET’s Dan Ackerman found in his hands-on time with the device, weighing in at just over 3 pounds and measuring less than half an inch thick. Read Scott Stein’s full 15-inch Air review for more.
