MacBook Air M2 Prices Drop to Prime Day Prices

The new M2 chip was released last summer to widespread acclaim, and now the 2022 M2 MacBook Air is heavily discounted (by Apple standards). The laptop’s price has dropped to $899 (regularly $1,099) at Best Buy. According to Camelcamelcamel, that’s cheaper than any prize Amazon has ever seen , and matches Best Buy’s lowest price during its October Prime Day sale , according to Honey’s price history. This is the price that refurbished MacBook Air M2s sell for, and it’s the lowest price you’ll find at any other major retailer.

You’re getting Apple’s best ultraportable laptop

If you’re looking for a portable, reliable laptop that can handle your busy multitasking schedule, consider this 2022 MacBook Air. It comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage and has a battery life of up to 18 hours. PCMag called the laptop ” Apple’s best ultraportable, ” noting its bright, vibrant display, thin design, and better performance that the M2 chip offers.

The MacBook Air 2022 M2 dropped to $1,099 with the 15-inch laptop’s release earlier this summer . With the new $899 discount, it’s only $50 more than the 2020 13-inch MacBook Air M1 , making the older model obsolete. PCMag also competed against Apple’s MacBook Pro 2022 M2, with the MacBook Air 2022 M2 taking the top spot for portability.

However, this laptop is not for everyone. 8GB of RAM is soldered out – if you feel like the RAM isn’t enough to handle your workload, you’ll be out of luck as you won’t be able to expand it. However, you can always expand the 256GB of internal space using an external hard drive. However, for most people, 8GB of RAM will be enough for photo and video editing, as well as mid-range gaming (again, by Apple standards).
