Right now, the retailer has the excellent Apple MacBook Pro 13 M5 listed for just $899 (was $1,099) a price that beats the previous record by a full $50.

While we've seen this latest model regularly drop to $949 in recent months, today's price cut is even better and definitely a surprise considering that the MacBook Air M5 is still relatively new as of writing.

This particular model saw a real price hike at launch thanks to the new chipset and an upgraded 512GB storage configuration, which is significantly better than the 256GB that the old models came with. Today's discount, however, addresses the price hike with a deal that's easily up there with the MacBook Neo when it comes to outright value. Record-low MacBook Air deal at Amazon Apple MacBook Air 13 (M5, 512GB): was $1,099 now $899 at Amazon Amazon has just posted the lowest price yet for the latest Apple MacBook Air 13 an excellent deal by all accounts. With an impressive $200 discount, this deal addresses our main complaint with the M5 Air: namely, that it's pricier than the previous model. Now, you're getting the latest chipset, 16GB of RAM, and
a bigger 512GB SSD for much less, with a price that arguably challenges even the budget MacBook Neo when it comes to outright value.

I've attached a few more options just down below, including the high-end MacBook Pro and the budget-oriented MacBook Neo, which is another fantastic value choice.

While pricey, the MacBook Pro starts with a spacious 1TB storage drive and delivers serious performance thanks to its cooling fans (something the Air lacks). If you're looking for the ultimate MacBook, this is a great deal overall, for sure.

It's no wonder that this latest model is already proving to
be a best seller. View Deal
