Earlier this month, the 13-inch Macbook Air M3 fell to its lowest price yet on Amazon, and now all variants, including the 15-inch ones, have dropped even further, bringing their price to a record-low. Read on to see the full list of discounted prices for all configurations, and to find out why this is such a great deal.
The Macbook Air 13 with the M3 chip has been one of the easiest laptops to recommend for everyday use. You can read our full review of the Macbook Air 13 M3 here, but the key takeaway is that the 8-core M3 CPU is just a solid performer that can handle pretty much any day-to-day task–or several at once–that the average user would throw at it.
It’s a light machine, weighing just 1.23 kg (2.73 lb), and 11.3 mm in thickness, making it easy to carry around the house or in a backpack. Battery life, at over 15 hours of web browsing on WiFi, is also outstanding.
The 15-inch Macbook Air (read our full review here) offers all the same advantages of its smaller sibling, but with a 2880 x 1664 pixel resolution, instead of 2560 x 1664 pixels. It’s only marginally heavier, at 1.501 kg (3.31 lb) and just as slim. The glossy displays on both offer around 500 nits of brightness and full DCI-P3 coverage, so they’re perfectly suitable for photo and video editing, though of course not quite like the Macbook Pro.
Recently, Apple gave the Macbook Air base models the long overdue 16 GB RAM upgrade, bringing them at par with most modern Windows laptops. For the 15-inch Macbook Air, however, Amazon is still selling the 8 GB variants, so if those suit your needs, you can get them for slightly lower than the 16 GB configurations.
