SAVE $250: The MacBook Air laptop, 13-inch (M2, 16GB RAM, 256SSD) is on sale at Amazon for just $749, down from the usual price of $999. That's a 25% discount and the lowest price we've ever seen for these specs.


MacBooks have long been considered some of the best options around, especially for creatives. But with only 8GB of RAM, the MacBook Air didn't fit the bill for everyone. Thankfully, Apple remedied the problem earlier this year by introducing the 16GB version of the MacBook Air. If you've been considering this upgrade, check out this epic sale price today.

As of Nov. 14, the 13-inch MacBook Air (M2, 16GB RAM, 256SSD) is on sale for just $749 at Amazon, marked down from the usual price of $999. That's a savings of $250 and a massive 25% discount. The sale price is also the lowest we've ever seen on this model. Plus, the $749 price matches the sale price on the 8GB version which means you can get double the memory with the 16GB model for the same price.

The MacBook Air is the most affordable laptop offering from Apple, but it doesn't wimp out on features and functions. The M2 processor chip proves great for multi-tasking and helps give the laptop about 18 hours of battery life per charge. Plus, the upgraded 16GB of memory makes it better suited for gaming.

The 13-inch model can also be awesome if you travel from home to work or across the country since it weighs just 2.7 pounds. The MacBook Air features a MagSafe charging port, two Thunderbolt ports, and a headphone jack.

While we're still waiting on some items to drop in price for Black Friday, today's sale price of $749 on the MacBook Air is the lowest we've ever spotted which means you might want to snag this deal why it's still live and beat the rush of the holiday shopping season.
