If you're looking for a new laptop, look no further than the 2024 MacBook Air M3. As the name suggests, it's built with Apple’s impressive M3 chip so it's a speedy and impressive laptop. It was even named one of Mashable's best laptops of the year in 2024.

And as of Jan. 17, this MacBook is reduced by $250 to $1,249 at Amazon. This price is for the 16GB RAM model with a 512GB SSD capacity without AppleCare+. You can choose from the colors midnight, silver, space gray, and starlight.

But why the M3 instead of the cheaper M2? Well, according to thorough Mashable testing, the M3 chip proved to be about 20 percent faster than the previous generation M2 chip. It also boasts an 18-hour battery life, great for working or studying away from home when you don't have access to a charging outlet.

This model has all the usual impressive stats that you'd expect from a MacBook Air, including a backlit keyboard, Touch ID, WiFi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3 for faster wireless connectivity. Not to mention, the 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display supports a whopping 1 billion colors.

Weighing just three pounds and measuring under 0.5 inches thin, this MacBook truly is amazing for slipping in your tote bag and working on the go.

Head to Amazon now to grab this limited deal.
