Amazon and Best Buy are battling for the lowest price on Apple's best-selling M3 MacBook Air with 512GB of storage.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales mark one of the best times to do so. Apple’s M3 MacBook Air is one of your best options in a thin, super portable form that’ll handle anything you need thanks to its powerful M3 chip.

As of Nov. 28, Amazon is selling Apple’s 2024 MacBook Air (15-inch) with M3 chip for $1,044, $255 off its $1,299 list price.

Apple’s new M4 chips are undoubtedly a one-way ticket to enhanced performance across the board on MacBook devices, especially the rumored M4 MacBook Air reportedly slated for 2025 - but Amazon’s Black Friday sale has introduced some major discounts for M3 MacBooks, and I have to admit, they’ve piqued my interest.

The 2022 MacBook Air features a modern and premium design with a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display which provides stunning visuals (with a resolution of 2560 x 1664 pixels). It is powered by Apple’s M2 chip which includes an 8-core CPU and an 8-core GPU for smooth performance whether you’re browsing the web, gaming or streaming videos.

As of Nov. 28, the 2024 13-Inch MacBook Air with M3 chip is down to $844 at Amazon, saving you $255 off its usual $1,099 price tag.

So what are the best Black Friday MacBook deals so far? For me, it's the MacBook Air M2 for $749 on Amazon, which is $150 off. Meanwhile, the brand-new MacBook Pro 14-inch with the M4 chip is $125 off.

The Apple MacBook Air M3 is an amazing laptop, regardless of the size you pick. Lucky for you, both are on sale today!

If you need a cheap, portable Mac, then check out Amazon's deal on the 13-inch MacBook Air with M3, offered at $255 off the retail price.

Our pick for the best laptop for most people is on sale. A 13-inch MacBook Air with an M3 chip, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage is down to a record low.
