Update: Joining the ongoing deals on the M3 15-inch models below, Amazon is also now serving up an additional $49 on-page coupon to knock the base model M3 13-inch configuration down to $949.99 shipped (Space Gray and Starlight). Regularly $1,099 this is $149 off the going rate, $50 under our previous mention, and the lowest we can find.
While the $150 price drops on the entry-level 13-inch model and the top-of-the-line 15-inch variant have now jumped up $50, those looking to land somewhere in the middle can now score Apple’s latest M3 15-inch MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD for $1,399 shipped. This is a straight up $100 price drop and the lowest price we can find. Only the Midnight model has ever sold for less at Amazon – it was $10 less for a short while – with today’s offer splitting the different on the far more more pricey 16GB 15-inch and the entry-level configuration. Head below for more.
While you can still score the 16GB/1TB previous-generation 15-inch M2 MacBook Air down at $1,499 right now – still a great option if you ask me, those looking to upgrade to the latest in (MacBook) Apple silicon might want to consider the new M3 model. We are, after all, likely to see Apple’s new M4 chip landing in its notebook lineup at some point, one would assume.
We loved our hands-on time with Apple’s latest M3 model, and you can get a detailed breakdown of the experience right here. But let’s go over some high-points right now too. Many of us purchased this new M3 machine right away to bring home the dual external display support in clamshell mode, Wi-Fi 6E support, and new anodization seal to hide those ugly fingerprint stains, and more. Apple’s latest M3 silicon is in place here alongside the 3-mic array with Voice Isolation and Wide Spectrum modes to make you sound better.
All of the difference between the 15-inch M3 MacBook Air and M2 model are waiting over on 9to5Mac.
