SAVE $200: The Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is on sale at Amazon for $999, down from the list price of $1,199. That's a 17% discount and the lowest price ever at Amazon.


One of the best times to buy a new MacBook is during the Amazon Prime Day event in July. Another awesome time is right about now, during back-to-school season. And like clockwork, we're seeing great discounts on MacBooks and other Apple devices as we head into August. If you're eyeing a new MacBook, check out today's sale at Amazon.

As of July 29, the Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is $999 at Amazon, marked down from the normal price of $1,199. That takes $200 off the price from a 17% discount. It's also the best price we've spotted at Amazon.

If you know you want a MacBook and you prioritize portability, the 13-inch MacBook Air is likely your best bet. In Mashable's comparison of the best MacBook, the Air gets the nod of the best overall, and it also happens to be the most affordable option. Today's sale price gives you a machine with the new, zippy M4 chip and it comes with 512GB of storage.

The 13-inch MacBook Air with 256GB of storage is also on sale at Amazon for a price of $799 which means you'll get double the storage with the 512GB version for $200 more. In addition, the $999 sale price applies to all colorways of the MacBook Air, which is nice to see. It's pretty common with Apple sales to only see a few colorways included in a sale.

Mashable Senior Editor Stan Schroeder reviewed the M4 MacBook Air and wrote, "The new MacBook Air is great. It's powerful, silent, and comes with a couple of much-needed upgrades. It's also cheaper than before, making it the best-buy Apple laptop, period."

Before the rush of back to school takes hold, order the MacBook Air from Amazon for $999. It comes with the reassurance that you're getting the most affordable Apple laptop with more storage than the baseline model.
