For Apple fans who’ve been holding out for a decent Mac upgrade, here’s one of the best opportunities you’ll get this year. As of Aug. 4, Amazon has slashed the price of Apple’s 13-inch MacBook Air (2025, M4 chip) to just $799. That means you’ll get $200 off its regular $999 tag, and according to price tracker camelcamelcamel, it’s the lowest price on record.

This deal covers all its available colours: midnight, silver, sky blue, and starlight, so you won’t have to settle when it comes to aesthetics either.

If you’ve read our review of the 2025 MacBook Air, you’ll know this runs like a dream as well as looking good. Powered by Apple’s new M4 chip, it brings a huge leap in performance and efficiency. Whether you’re juggling spreadsheets, editing videos, or diving into Apple Intelligence features, this machine stays fast and fluid. With 16GB of unified memory and 256GB of SSD storage, it's designed to handle heavy multitasking without breaking a sweat.

Its 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display supports a billion colours, making everything from movies to presentations look vivid and sharp. Meanwhile, the improved 12MP Center Stage camera, three-mic array, and Spatial Audio speakers make this one of the best MacBooks for both Zoom calls and binge-watching.

Apple claims up to 18 hours of battery life, which means you can leave your charger at home and still get through your workday — or your flight, your study session, or your Netflix marathon. Port-wise, you get Thunderbolt 4, MagSafe charging, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3 — plus support for up to two external displays, a first for the Air lineup.

The only negative we’d point out to potential shoppers is that this definitely isn’t a gaming laptop — with its max 60Hz display offering framerates that are considered minimal in the PC gaming space. 

Still, at $799, the 2025 MacBook Air 13-inch is easily one of the most compelling Apple laptop deals we’ve seen in ages. Whether you're a student, a remote worker, or just tired of your laggy old machine, this sleek powerhouse is a no-brainer at this price.

Want more options? Check out our full list of the best Apple deals this week — including more MacBooks, iPads, and a lot more. If you’re looking solely for a bargain on AirPods, jump straight ahead to the Apple AirPods Pro 2 for $169 deal while it lasts.
