The launch of the M4 MacBook Air series has caused a chain reaction that allows customers to pocket substantial savings because some attractive discounts have been applied to the M2 and M3 versions. On Amazon, the company’s previous-generation portable Macs start from just $699, making them exceptional value for students and various customer bases. Best of all, where Apple would downgrade the capabilities of these machines by adding a paltry 8GB RAM to the overall configuration, all of the discounted versions feature 16GB unified RAM as standard.
As you would expect, the 13-inch M2 MacBook Air is the most affordable out of the entire lineup, but it is also the most affordable, listed for just $699, and offers a 256GB SSD. While we understand that the internal memory can be a bit limiting for most users, you can compensate for that with the purchase of a high-speed external SSD, which are also discounted on Amazon. The M3 MacBook Air is currently going for $799 and offers the same hardware as its immediate predecessor, with the exception of the SoC.
Since the only notable difference between the M2 and M3 is that the latter supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing, you should pick up the $699 portable Mac if you demand the best value. Last but certainly not least, we have Apple’s latest and greatest lineup, the M4 MacBook Air. Featuring display sizes of 13 inches and 15 inches, the design has mostly remained the same, but the M4 delivers performance on a whole new level while also offering 16GB of unified RAM.
We cannot say for certain how long these discounts will last, but Apple has officially discontinued both the M2 and M3 versions of the MacBook Air, so Amazon is likely getting rid of existing stock at throwaway prices, meaning that this is your golden opportunity to strike.
