Apple’s newest M4 MacBook Air just dropped back to its record-low price of $749 on Amazon, no need to wait for Black Friday or Cyber Monday. This Apple laptop deal might be the smartest buy of the season.
If you’re looking for a reason to skip the Black Friday or Cyber Monday sale, this might be it. Apple’s latest M4 MacBook Air 13 inch model is on sale at Amazon and already back to its record low price of $749, which is a $250 drop from the usual $999.
This matches the low we saw earlier this month, so it’s likely the deal will last until a few days before Black Friday. We might see the same offer again, but it’s smart to grab it now and avoid the busy season.
All MacBook Air storage configurations and color variants are included in the sale, with the 16 GB and 512 GB model listed at $949 from $1,199, and the 24 GB and 512 GB model at $1,149 down from $1,399.
Who Should Get the Apple M4 MacBook Air?
The M4 MacBook Air (review) isn’t just for casual users like students. Power users can also benefit from the performance while saving a sizeable amount.
While it drops some premium specs found in the MacBook Pro, the M4 MacBook Air remains a snappy and capable laptop, thanks to the new M4 chipset. The CPU now features 10 cores, up from 8. The GPU is set at 9 cores for the base model, but it’s more powerful and adds ray tracing for smoother graphics performance.

Overall, the M4 handles more than basic tasks. It can take on demanding workloads like video editing and even AAA gaming. It also runs Apple Intelligence more smoothly. Despite the performance boost, it still delivers up to 18 hours of battery life.
With the new chipset, the M4 MacBook Air now supports connecting two monitors without closing the lid, using its two USB-C Thunderbolt ports. There’s also a new 12 MP Center Stage camera for higher quality video calls and presentation support. Both are major productivity upgrades for users with multi display setups.
The 13.6 inch Liquid Retina display remains unchanged, but it’s still a phenomenal panel with rich colors and sharp detail. The large trackpad and keyboard are among the best for typing and navigation. The chassis is another selling point, which is thin and lightweight. It fits more bags than the MacBook Pro.
