Deal | Latest Apple MacBook Air 13.3 with Core i5, 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB SSD now down to only $850

Apple laptops don't go on sale as often as Windows laptops and even when they do, the savings are typically smaller. The latest deal on an Apple MacBook is slightly better than usual making it worthwhile for users in the market for an Apple system.

Best Buy is currently offering the base model 2019 MacBook Air 13.3 for $850 USD or $250 off the original launch price. This particular configuration includes an Intel 8th gen Core i5-8210Y CPU with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage — bare minimum specifications for a standard day-to-day laptop. Of course, you don't need us to tell you that buyers considering a MacBook should be enamored by the Apple ecosystem and aesthetics and not the internal specifications or performance-per-dollar. At least the 2560 x 1600 Retina display is a commendable highlight.

See our review on the 2019 Apple MacBook Air 13.3 for a full rundown on the laptop. If you're on the other side of the fence, plenty of Ice Lake-powered Windows laptops have been running for cheap as well including the HP Spectre 13 or Razer Blade Stealth.
