If you’re on the hunt for a new laptop for the upcoming semester, for work or anything else, Prime Day laptop deals may have just what you’re looking for. Key among the laptop sales this year is the 15-inch Apple MacBook Air M3, which is up to $450 off right now. The discounted model is a high-end one, featuring 24GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, that typically costs $1,699.
The M3 MacBook Air was our top budget pick for MacBooks, and we were impressed with its fast performance thanks to the M3 chip, as well as its sturdy and sleek design. We also enjoyed the six-speaker array on the 15-inch model, as well as the 3K Liquid Retina display. Thanks to these features and more, it earned a score of 90 in our hands-on review.
Our only real gripe was that the charging and USB-C ports are all on one side of the MacBook Air, which can make arranging peripherals a touch cluttered. It can also make charging just a little more complicated if you have to drape a charging cable around the laptop to reach the port on the other side.
It’s also worth noting the newer M4 MacBook Air is also on sale for Prime Day. Both the 15-inch and 13-inch models are $150 off, down to $1,049 and $849, respectively, for each base configuration.
