Amazon and Best Buy are now offering one of the first chances to score Apple’s latest M2 MacBook Air at $200 off. Returning to holiday pricing set well before gifts were unwrapped last month, you can now bring home the 256GB of Apple’s most popular macOS machine for $999 shipped at Amazon. You’ll also be able to lock-in the same price over at Best Buy. Down from the usual $1,199, you’re looking at the second-best price to date and still one of the first chances to lock-in anywhere close to this deep of a discount.
Apple’s all-new M2 MacBook Air comes powered by its latest in-house chip and pairs with a refreshed form-factor. The 13-inch Liquid Retina Display sports a 500-nit brightness to complete the P3 wide color support and pairs with a 1080p FaceTime camera with three-mic array and Spatial Audio-enabled speakers. Though the real highlight has to be the return of MagSafe charging, which pairs with other I/O like dual Thunderbolt ports.

But if you don’t need the M2 performance gains, there really is still something to be said from the original M1 MacBook Air.

Starting at $899, you’ll be able to save $100 thanks to clearance pricing from Amazon.
