Amazon and Best Buy are battling for the lowest price on Apple's best-selling M3 MacBook Air with 512GB of storage.

A solid Apple deal is rarer than finding a lightning port in the wild right now, but thanks to the Amazon Black Friday sale, the 2024 Macbook Air (13-Inch) is $255 off. That's the latest and sleekest-looking Macbook, down from $1,099 to a classy $844, so this is the time to bite on a solid upgrade powered by the powerhouse M3 chip.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales mark one of the best times to do so. Apple’s M3 MacBook Air is one of your best options in a thin, super portable form that’ll handle anything you need thanks to its powerful M3 chip.

This MacBook Air is a shocking $300 off, marking the lowest price we've ever seen on this model. Apple recently upgraded the Air to come with 16GB of RAM by default, so the 8GB version is in limited supply. Translation? Once it's gone, it's gone.

The new M4 MacBook Pro laptops can be bought with hundreds of dollars off the list price ahead of Black Friday... just not from Apple.

SAVE $100: As of Nov. 26, the Apple MacBook Air 13.3-inch is on sale for $599 in Walmart's Black Friday sale. That's a 14% saving on the list price.

Apple's MacBook Air and MacBook Pro share similarly impressive, iconic designs, but which one delivers the right balance of power and value for what you do? Check out our MacBook comparisons and see how they rank in our testing.

Early Black Friday Cyber Monday deals are starting to drop, and several new Apple MacBooks —including ones that hit the shelves only a few weeks ago—are available for hundreds less. Translation? Now is hands-down the most opportune time to upgrade to a new laptop.
