Amazon Takes Up to $190 Off M5 MacBook Air With Best Deals Since Price Hike

You can get up to $190 off multiple models of the M5 MacBook Air on Amazon this week, with deals focused mainly on 13-inch models this time around. These are the lowest prices we've seen on the notebooks in the wake of Apple's price hikes in June.

And to think, Amazon was selling the 15-inch MacBook Air M5 (24GB/1TB) for as little as $1,150 about a month and a half ago. :(:(

And the 13-inch model was $900

Good computers. Not sure whether there will be better prices later on especially when there is always a chance that Apple might increase the prices further.

Yeah, my thought also.

The current ask is $800 more than mine retailed for at one point and $1,000 more than I'm into mine for (got my 24/1TB 15" lightly preowned)

I ended up "settling" for a 13-inch MacBook Air 24GB/1TB for $1,299 on June 30th with no tax from AAFES/Shop My Exchange since my dad is retired Army.
Outstanding machine! I had that exact one before deciding I really wanted 15" for my needs and aging eyes and desire for a bit more screen when I'm in laptop mode.

Admittedly, I'm in "docked to a huge OLED" mode 95% of the time, so it wasn't a huge issue.

Yup. I was watching those Amazon price drops like a hawk, but they'd typically happen at night while I was asleep. So by the time I woke up, the deal was gone. And when I DID get a notification in time (the 15-inch deal I linked first), the deal was geo-locked. So it wasn't available for me to purchase in North Carolina. By the time that I scrambled to have it sent to my uncle in Baltimore, the deal was dead.
