The latest 13-inch MacBook Air has dropped to a new all-time low
Apple’s new iPad Air and iPad Pro are impressive, but personally, I prefer laptops with built-in trackpads and keyboards for getting work done. If you feel the same way, the new M3-powered MacBook Air is our top pick for most people, and right now, you can buy the 13-inch base model with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage for an all-time low of $949.99 ($150 off) at Amazon. If you want a few extra years of service, you can also buy the higher-specced model at Amazon with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM for $1,349.99 ($150 off) when you clip the on-page coupon.
Thanks to Apple’s newer M3 chips, the 13-inch Air offers even better performance than its fantastic predecessor. It comes with a few minor upgrades that make it easier to use, too, including Wi-Fi 6E support as well as faster download and storage speeds. Most notably, though, it’s better for multitasking, as the laptop can now power two external displays as opposed to one when the lid is closed. Other than that, though, Apple’s latest entry-level laptop is similar to the M2 Air, with long battery life and solid port selection options that include two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports, a 3.5mm input, and a MagSafe charging port.
