MacBook Air deals

If you want the lightest and thinnest laptop in the MacBook lineup, the Air is the way to go. The MacBook Air has also recently been refreshed for 2020 with the latest Intel Core processors and the Magic Keyboard. The Magic Keyboard replaces the much-maligned butterfly mechanism with familiar scissor switches from older MacBook offerings.

The MacBook Air is a solid choice for most daily tasks and it has the battery life to keep you going. Here are the best MacBook Air deals we could find:

• MacBook Air with Retina Display (late 2020, M1 processor, 512GB SSD) for $929 ($70 off)
• MacBook Air with Retina Display (early 2020, Core i3 processor, 256GB SSD) for $899 ($100 off)
• MacBook Air with Retina Display (early 2020, Core i5 processor, 512GB SSD) for $1,099 ($200 off)

12-inch MacBook deals

If you wanted the absolute smallest MacBook on the market, your best bet for a few years was the 12-inch MacBook. Designed to replace the MacBook Air, the slim little device shipped with an Intel Core m3 processor onboard and an edge-to-edge butterfly keyboard. The MacBook was one of the first laptops to jump on the port-stripping bandwagon, rocking just one USB-C port.

It comes with a Retina display and up to 10 hours of battery life, both of which are pretty impressive for the small machine. The 12-inch MacBook was discontinued in 2019, but here’s there are a few deals on renewed models still available:

13-inch MacBook Pro deals

The 13-inch MacBook Pro is the entry point to Apple’s Pro series. It still has the old butterfly keyboard and an eighth-generation Intel Core processor, which is still pretty rapid. The 13-inch MacBook Pro is probably the next laptop Apple will refresh, but you can save a bit of money in the meantime.

If you want a laptop with a bit more processing power and a few more ports than the MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro is the way to go. Here are some options with different specs to check out:

• Late 2020 MacBook Pro (Apple M1 8-Core processor, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) for $1,199 ($100 off)

• Mid-2020 MacBook Pro (1.4 GHz Core i5, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) for $1,299 ($200 off)
• New Apple MacBook Pro (M1 8-Core processor, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) for $1,199 ($100 off)

It was the first to offer the new Magic Keyboard, AMD Radeon Pro 5000M graphics, and up to 8TB of storage. The 16-inch MacBook Pro also features six speakers for your most ambitious creative projects.
