Apple’s popular MacBook Air received one of its biggest redesigns ever last year, and CNET quickly named it the best laptop for most people. Despite being among Apple’s newest Macs, we’ve already seen several solid MacBook Air M2 deals and Best Buy is giving you yet another opportunity to save on one with $150 off across the board. Both 256GB and 512GB configurations are seeing prices slashed, dropping the entry-level model down to $1,049.
The MacBook Air M2 features a larger and brighter 13.6-inch Liquid Retina Display and thinner overall profile. Inside, it’s powered by Apple’s new M2 chip which allows for a performance bump of up to 40% and battery life as long as 18 hours, according to Apple. Other notable improvements include a 1080p FaceTime camera, a four-speaker sound system with support for Spatial Audio and support for Apple’s innovative MagSafe charging cable.
The base model on sale at Best Buy features a 256GB SSD, M2 chip with an eight-core GPU and 8GB of RAM. Jump up to the 512GB configuration and you’ll get double the storage plus a more powerful M2 chip with a 10-core GPU. All colors are discounted by the same amount, so you can take your pick from silver, space gray, starlight and midnight.
