Who wants to lug around a heavy laptop? No one, and that’s part of what makes the Apple MacBook Air M3 one of our favorite laptops. That’s in addition to its excellent performance and long battery life. We didn’t select it as our top laptop pick for no reason, after all. Now that Prime Day is here, you can grab one for the lowest price we’ve seen to date. With up to $255 off, both the 13- and 15-inch models are an absolute steal and can be had for just $849 and $1,044, respectively. You’re saving over 20% off the usual list price of $1,099 and $1,299 for the two models, and believe us, they’re worth it.
The latest MacBook Air models showcase beautiful 13.6- and 15.4-inch Retina displays and are powered by the speedy M3 chip. Equipped with 8GB of unified memory and a 256GB solid-state drive, they deliver decent performance and impressive efficiency. They also feature a 1080p FaceTime camera and a robust battery that keeps up with even the busiest workloads. Charging is flexible — you can use a USB-C port or the dedicated MagSafe 3 port.
