Our choice for the best budget macbook is back at its lowest price ever. Right now you can get the 13-inch MacBook Air with M2 chip for its Prime Day price of $799, down from $999. The deal is available on 256GB models in Silver, Space Gray, or Starlight, but does not include AppleCare+.
We dubbed this MacBook Air a “near-perfect Mac” when it debuted in 2022, giving it a 96 in our review. Among the features that stood out to us the most is the M2 chip, which has eight CPU cores and up to 10 GPU cores. Apple could be up to the task M4 chip now, but if you are looking for a device that can do all the basic tasks without difficulty, then an M2 is more than enough.
