Apple's newest MacBook Air released at the start of the year to some very big praise from critics - and if you have been looking to upgrade your set-up, Amazon might have a deal you'll want to jump on.

That's because it has cut the price of the newest MacBook Air by £220 for a limited time. You can get the laptop for £1079 which is pretty sizable cut in price considering it's an Apple product and just released.

It still is a pretty big price tag for most people to drop on a new laptop - but like many of the newest Apple MacBooks, you'll struggle to get it cheaper. And depending on your situation, Amazon may let you spread the cost.

But in return, you'll get a 15-inch laptop with the newest M3 chip with a Liquid Retina display and 8GB of RAM. There's also 18 hours of battery life so you can leave the power adapter at home.  

We also gave the Apple MacBook Air our highest score in our review of the device back in March. On the outside, the all-new 2024 MacBook Air may look identical to its predecessor but it’s hiding a secret.

You can get the newest MacBook Air by £220 for a limited time on Amazon

It still is a pretty big price tag for most people to drop on a new laptop - but like many of the newest Apple MacBooks, you'll struggle to get it cheaper. And depending on your situation, Amazon may let you spread the cost.

On the outside, the all-new 2024 MacBook Air may look identical to its predecessor but it’s hiding a secret. Head inside the sleek aluminium body and you’ll find Apple’s mighty M3 processor which makes this lightweight laptop so much more capable. 4K video editing, photo retouching and gaming won't have this machine huffing and puffing that's for sure.

It can also boost productivity thanks to external dual-screen support and there’s speedy Wi-Fi 6E now included as well. Battery life seems never-ending, the screen is excellent and you get Apple’s market-leading keyboard and trackpad.

No, the design hasn’t changed this year and the stunning Midnight colour can still get incredibly mucky. However, with a new lower starting price and more power than most people will get close to using, the MacBook Air M3 is a laptop that’s impossibly tough to beat.

Yes, it’s a bit of a shame the Midnight colour still gets so mucky, you only get two USB-C ports and there’s no big design change this year. But this is a brilliant upgrade to a device that was already top of its game.

If you do want a cheaper MacBook alternative, OnBuy has the M2 laptop for £799 on its website which might be a better price for most people who don't need the newest model.
