Apple's M2 MacBook Air Drops to Record Low Prices for Prime Day, Available From $749

Prime Day doesn't officially start until tomorrow, October 8, but we've been tracking early deals for a few days now. To kick off the week, Amazon is now also providing two all-time low prices on the M2 MacBook Air.

Starting with the 256GB 13-inch M2 MacBook Air, you can get this model for $749.00 in three colors, down from $999.00. For more storage, Amazon has the 512GB model of the same computer for $949.00, down from $1,199.00.


Although Apple updated the MacBook Air back in March, it kept these 13-inch M2 models around as a low-cost option for customers. This means that the M2 MacBook Air should be perfect for anyone who doesn't care about owning newest generation notebook, but would rather save money while still getting a reliable computer.

Be sure to visit our early Prime Day deals post for a deeper dive into all the discounts already available for the event. Our full Deals Roundup has more information on the latest Apple-related sales and bargains.

Until there's a sale on the models with 16GB of RAM, there's no sale, it's just clearing out stock no one should buy.

I’m not sure if saying something just dropped to a record low price, if it’s been that price for many, many months.

Yes, technically the price continues to reach record lows each week by matching the previous week’s low, creating a consistent pattern of hitting the same record low repeatedly. That’s the way of MacRumors… it’s a living!

I get what you're saying but we're pricing some PC laptops for our granddaughter's birthday and the performance/cooling to price profile of this Apple device leaves us hard pressed to find a comparable PC for $750.00 U.S.
