Lots of laptops are on sale right now, including great deals on MacBooks (both M2 and M3) and Windows systems.
If you find yourself in need of a new laptop, we have good news—there are a whole bunch of models on sale right now (as is usually the case as of late), including an all-time low price for Apple’s M2 MacBook Air. Yes, it’s officially a last-gen product with the M3 roll out, but it’s still a powerful and efficient system. Not to fret, though, we also found some deals on M3 hardware too.We’ll start with the Apple M2 MacBook Air (13.6-inch) first, however, because this matches its lowest price ever—it’s on sale at Amazon for $849right now, which is $150 below its MSRP. The timing of the deal is interesting too, because coincidentally we just had a discussion internally about the MacBook Air and its baseline 8GB of RAM, which is unified memory on this system. Is that enough?The answer is absolutely, depending on your needs. On one hand, this is 2024 and 8GB a paltry allotment, especially when factoring in the usable lifespan of a system. That’s something to consider if you plan on doing heavy lifting with your laptop, now or down the road. But on the other hand, if you’re looking for a general purpose system—web browsing, word processing, and basic productivity chores mostly—you’ll be just fine and can apply the money saved to apps, or put it towards a fund for a future upgrade.
