If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to buy a new laptop, now is an excellent opportunity. Just before Black Friday, you can grab the base model of the 13-inch M4-powered MacBook Air for an attractive price of $749.99, a hefty $250 discount, available in various colors at Amazon. This marks the lowest price we’ve witnessed for Apple’s sleek laptop, offering you substantial savings this holiday season. Likewise, the 15-inch MacBook Air with an M4 chip is also reduced to $949.99, another $250 off, at Amazon, marking another record low.

Even at its standard price, Apple’s entry-level MacBook Air is a remarkable bargain, combining robust performance with impressive battery life. It’s not only more affordable but also more powerful than its predecessor, thanks to Apple’s M4 chip, which ensures speedier performance. The laptop now comes with 16GB of base RAM, enabling you to run the latest macOS 26 update and leverage Apple Intelligence features smoothly. Additionally, it features an upgraded 12-megapixel Center Stage webcam that delivers sharper images and a broader view. Having used a company-issued 13-inch M4 Air for several months, I’ve yet to see it falter. It’s clear why we regard it as the top laptop choice.

Fortunately, this promotion includes various color options, allowing you to select from classic silver or gold, avoiding the dark blue that tends to attract fingerprints. Regardless of your choice, you’ll benefit from all-day battery life, upgraded Thunderbolt 4 ports, and the capability to connect two external displays while keeping the laptop open. If you lean towards the 15-inch Air’s larger display, you’ll also enjoy its superior six-speaker system compared to the 13-inch model’s four. However, both versions are limited to two Thunderbolt 4 / USB-C ports and offer a base storage capacity of 256GB.
