I'm shocked: Apple's M4 MacBook Air has fallen to a new record low of $750 on Amazon
SAVE $249.01: Amazon has the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) on sale for just $749.99 as of Nov. 5. That's 25% off its $999 MSRP and its lowest price ever.
Confession: I wasn't expecting Apple's M4 MacBook Air to dip any lower than $799 this holiday season. Amazon and Best Buy have been regularly selling the 13-inch model at that price since August, and at $200 off, it's a huge discount on a newish laptop that's already a great value at its full MSRP. If that MacBook deal was the one we got on Black Friday, I was going to be totally fine with that.
Lo and behold, it somehow got even cheaper. As of Nov. 5, Amazon has the base configuration of the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air marked down to just $749.99 in all four colors (sky blue, midnight, silver, and starlight). That's a new all-time low that isn't matched at any other retailer, including Best Buy. I'm not mad, just shocked.
The 13-inch M4 Air is the MacBook I recommend for students and other users who need a great, affordable, portable laptop. If you have a little more wiggle room in your budget, the 15-inch model adds two extra speakers and a slightly better GPU. (It's currently $249.01 off, too.) Both start with 16GB of memory and 256GB of storage.
If you need better specs, four other upgraded variants of the M4 MacBook Air have fallen to all-time lows on Amazon ahead of Black Friday. They weren't price-matched anywhere else at the time of writing (I checked):
