Deals: Get Up to $150 Off Apple's M1 MacBook Air

Amazon has every model of Apple's M1 MacBook Air in stock this week, with all offering delivery before the Christmas holiday. You can save up to $150 on these 2020 notebooks, and you'll find the 512GB model matching its Black Friday price tag.

Prices start at $899.00 for the 256GB model, down from $999.00, and available for Christmas delivery in Space Gray, Silver, and Gold. This isn't the lowest we've ever seen the 256GB model go, but it's now likely the last best deal you'll see in 2021.

You can get the 512GB model for $1,099.00, down from $1,249.00. This is the same price we saw on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and all three colors are again available for Christmas delivery.

I picked up base 8gb/256 for $799 at Costco! That price is good thru most of December.

A newer Mac with 8GB isn't a deal, it's a compromise.
Thanks for deciding for everyone's requirements...

I really want one. But I’m waiting for the next generation with the new screen and hopefully the M2.

You will never see a discount with a 16 GB model.
B&H Photo Video has $100 discounts on the 16GB MBA (1,349 instead of 1,449].

Just bought one with 512 gb on Amazon at 180€ off. aren’t 8 gb enough for non professional users?
I'm actually pretty blown away with how smooth 8GB of RAM is on the M1 Air. I've experienced some stutters and things, but that's in cases where I'm running a bunch of stuff at once spread across my personal and work user accounts both logged in. I would go with 16 personally based on that, but I think 8GB is absolutely usable for regular use, and MUCH more usable than 8GB was in Intel Mac.
