The M2 MacBook Air just hit a record-low price again
Save $200: Grab the M2 MacBook Air with 256GB of built-in storage at its new record-low price of $899. This 18% discount on the laptop's $1,099 MSRP is only available at Best Buy.
Just a couple short weeks ago, the M2 MacBook Air was available for only $949. It was the first time we'd seen the laptop's price dip that low, and we wouldn't have been surprised if it would be the best price we saw on this MacBook during the back-to-school season.
In this case, we're more than happy to have our expectations shattered. As of Aug. 28, Best Buy dropped the price of the M2 MacBook Air with 256GB of built-in storage yet again to just $899, slashing $200 off its $1,099 MSRP. That 18% discount brings makes this laptop the best MacBook deal available right now.
As a reminder, the M2 Air's MSRP dropped $100 following the release of the 15-inch MacBook Air, so while this isn't the first time we've seen it get a $200 markdown, it is the first time a $200 markdown has brought it down to such a low price. (We also were excited to see a refurbished version of this laptop down to $919 at Woot last week, but it's since sold out.)
For context, the M1 MacBook Air is on sale (and has been for a couple months now) for $749. Compared to the older model, the M2 Air got a sleek redesign that did away with the tapered edge and upgraded the display size from 13.3 inches to 13.6 inches — according to Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry in his review, the difference is definitely noticeable.
These design upgrades, paired with zippy M2 power, 18 hours of battery life, and a keyboard we're obsessed with make this laptop a lightweight powerhouse, which makes it one of the best choices for students, and honestly, the best MacBook for most people (and a Mashable Choice pick).
If you already have an M1 MacBook, upgrading isn't a necessity (though at this price, it could be worth it for you). For everyone else, as Perry put it in his review, "Anyone who's been rocking an older MacBook for a while should upgrade to this one ASAP."
