Update: Amazon and B&H are now offering the entry-level M1 MacBook Air for $899, saving you $100 and marking a return to the all-time low for the first time this year.
Authorized Apple retailer Expercom is currently offering the latest 13-inch M1 MacBook Air from $948 shipped for the entry-level model. Down from it $999 going rate, today’s offer amounts to $51 in savings, is $1 under our previous mention, and one of the best prices of the year. You can also save up to $111 on higher-end configurations with upgraded RAM and storage space.
Yesterday saw the launch of the first M1-powered iMac, but those wanting to work away from the desktop will find Apple’s latest MacBook Air to fit the bill instead. Centered around a 13-inch Retina display, you’ll find improved performance thanks to the M1 chip as well as increased battery life and a fan-less build. That’s alongside up to 16GB of RAM and 2TB of SSD storage, as well as pair of Thunderbolt ports and Wi-Fi 6 support to round out the package. Get a better idea of its performance in our hands-on review, and then head below for more.
(Update 4/22 2:45 p.m.): Costco members can now score the latest model 13.3-inch M1 MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD for $899.99 shipped (Reg. $999) in Gold.
A great way to put some of your savings to work will be by expanding the I/O selection of the M1 MacBook Air with Anker’s PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB-C Hub at $28. This offering arrives with a bevy of ports including HDMI, USB-A, SD card readers, and even 100W USB-C power delivery. Its aluminum housing should fit right in with the rest of your Apple setup too, which is always a nice perk. There’s also a 4.7/5 star rating from over 5,600 customers, as well.
Then go hit up our Apple guide for even more price cuts. Best Buy’s latest 4-day sale still rages on and offers HomePod mini bundles at $110 alongside plenty of other notable discounts. But that’s on top of the first discount on the Apple Watch Black Unity Sport Band at $39 and up to $120 off the previous-generation iPad Pros.
