Summary
Amazon is offering an enticing deal ahead of Prime Day: the base 13-inch M2 MacBook Air has hit its lowest price ever at $799, saving you $200. This discount is available on all color options, including the stunning Midnight finish.
Although the M2 MacBook Air is no longer Apple's flagship model, as the M3-powered MacBook Air has taken that spot, the M2 variant remains an excellent budget-friendly option. This new price drop makes it even more appealing for those looking to get a capable Apple laptop without breaking the bank.
The M2 MacBook Air was already our top pick for a budget MacBook, and this discount reinforces its value. In his 2022 review, Engadget's Devindra Hardawar described the M2 Air as a “near-perfect Mac,” awarding it a score of 96. The 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display is impressive with its 500 nits brightness and 60Hz refresh rate. It also features a 1080p webcam, a triple-mic array for clear voice capture, and excellent speakers, all in a slim design that’s just 11.3 millimeters thick and weighs 2.7 pounds.
Despite its sleek form, the M2 MacBook Air includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, two USB-C Thunderbolt ports, and a MagSafe charging connector. The battery life is substantial, easily lasting a full workday unless you're performing intensive tasks like video editing.
The M2 MacBook Air handles everyday tasks effortlessly and supports many App Store and Steam games. However, it comes with just 8GB of memory, which may be limiting for some users, and upgrading RAM through Apple is costly. Still, for those needing a reliable MacBook Air for typical use, this model is a solid choice.
Additionally, macOS Sequoia, set to release later this year, will bring new features like iPhone mirroring on your Mac and a new Passwords app, enhancing the functionality of M1 and later Macs.
