Need a new laptop? The 2019 MacBook Air, the latest model, is a great choice for most people’s computing needs. And right now you can snag one from Amazon for as low as $899.99 — that’s $200 less than Apple is asking for the exact same item. You can put the money you’ll save to better use, like buying literally anything else. Let’s take a look at the specific models that are on sale right now.
13-Inch MacBook Air (128GB) is $200 Off

- See it in Gold – $899.99 at checkout
The space gray and gold colors of the 128GB MacBook Air is on sale for $949.99, but just to make things confusing, Amazon will give you an extra $50 off at checkout. That brings the price down to the more budget-friendly price of $899.99. Inexplicably, the silver version of the same model doesn’t get the extra $50, but if you like it enough to spend forego the additional discount, you can still get one for $949.99.
13-Inch MacBook Air (256GB) is $200 Off

The same $200 off deal applies to the model that packs a 256GB SSD. The gold and silver models are currently available and shipping, but the space gray one is backordered until January 30.
The 2019 MacBook Air offers a gorgeous, pixel-dense Retina display with True Tone. It has Touch ID for password-free logins, and two USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports. It’s also super thin, with its patented wedge-shape design, and incredibly light for maximum portability.
On either side of the keyboard you’ll find stereo speakers that deliver high-quality sound without having to hook it up to an external pair. Apple says these offer double the bass and 25 percent louder volume than in the previous MacBook Air model. And the whole thing is made from 100% recycled aluminum, so you’re doing the planet a favor by buying it.
