We’re all for discounts and deals, but this one is a bit of an eye-roll. To compete with (itself?), Amazon has dropped the price of the M3 MacBook Air to a whopping $1 below the all-time low. Yes, you read that right — a single dollar.

As of July 15, the 13.6-inch Apple MacBook Air (M3, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) is on sale for $898.99, down from $1,099. This is the lowest price we’ve seen since June 10, when it dipped to $899. Ridiculous as it is, you can’t find this deal anywhere else — it’s still listed at $1,099 on the Apple website and the old all-time low of $899 at Best Buy and other retailers.

So, I guess Amazon is competing with the rest of the market by offering an almost comically lower price, undercutting even its own previous record-setting discount.

Pettiness aside, the M3 MacBook Air is still a pretty impressive machine. Its M3 chip offers solid (and fast) performance, is lightweight, less than one-half-inch thin, and has up to 18 hours of battery life. While the $1 discount may not be enough to sway everyone, it's hard to deny that this is an unprecedented deal you won't find anywhere else.

If you need a larger screen, the 15.3-inch Apple MacBook Air (M3, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) is on sale for $1,099, down from $1,299 — the lowest price we’ve seen on this model. You can also get the 16.2-inch Apple MacBook Pro (M3, 18GB RAM, 512GB SSD) for $1,999, down from $2,499. That’s a $500 price cut.
