On Friday we tracked new all-time low prices on the 13-inch M3 MacBook Air, and today Amazon has expanded this sale with record low prices on the 15-inch models as well. Thanks to these additional deals, every single model of the M3 MacBook Air is now available at an all-time low price.

Secondly, Amazon still has $200 off the 256GB 13-inch M3 MacBook Air, now available for $899.00 in every color, down from $1,099.00. Just like the 15-inch models, you can also find both 512GB 13-inch M3 MacBook Air on sale at best-ever prices.

No Air announcement tomorrow, but probably M4 Mac Mini, M4 Mac Studio announcements.

Amazon wants to tempt you with a super fire sale on last generation M3, cause they know consumers gonna want the latest and greatest with the new M4 Pro and Max chips

Wow. Thats a better price than the refurb models available at Apple now. If I wasn’t outside the return window on my $699 Wal Mart M1 Air, I’d buy that in a second!

"Every single model" except those with 16GB RAM in the 256GB HDD version, so actually "not every single model." Please stop doing this.

That’s the one I’d probably want to get. I’m waiting for the back to school promotion, combined with the education discount and Florida’s back to school sales tax holiday. $100 off, $150 gift card (probably), and nearly $100 sales tax savings. Sign me up!

Not tomorrow, but they probably aren’t all that far off. Apple has significant incentive to migrate quickly to the M4 because they’re cheaper to produce.

Chances are, we won’t be waiting until 2025 for M4 MacBooks.

That being said, rumors have it that the AI features from WWDC won't be gated to M4 chips and anything from M1 onwards will support it. M4 will just get you the performance boost we've seen in the benchmarks from the latest iPad Pros.

What might be gated more significantly (according to rumors) will be the iPhones, where only iPhone 15 pro and 16s will support the full set of the AI features announced (which ones, we'll find out, but probably more of the LLM type features if I had to guess). I guess Apple needs to find a way to continue to drive iPhone sales after the last few models have been mostly stagnant imo.

Agreed. I happened to buy a 15 Pro when it launched because my 12 Pro felt a title long in the tooth and I was switching from AT&T to T-Mobile anyway so I decided to take advantage of their generous bill credits in exchange for a two year deal allowing me to upgrade to a 15 Pro for chump change each month when otherwise I likely wouldn’t have. I have been pleasantly surprised with it since I bought the AVP and started shooting spatial video and even more so hearing it’ll support all of the AI features coming to iOS 18.

I can see users of the 14 Pro and below now feeling compelled to upgrade where they may not have before if the AI features that are iPhone 15/16 only prove useful. I’d certainly be in that boat myself if I were still on the 12 or on the 13 or 14.

That's what I'd like, but given this last week of sales at Best Buy and Amazon don't include the Mini or Studio I'm assuming the Air is the next M4 release. Doesn't make sense to me but it looks like Apple is putting the Mini and Studio on extended no-upgrade hiatus.
 
I think this is a reaction to Apple's Back to School 2024 sale, which launches in June. Expect $150 gift card, which along with $100 education discount, makes it a superior buy.

Apple always loses me at 256GB starting storage. It’s been that since around 2015 for MBP.

I’m waiting for this too. I want the 16/256.

Debating if I wanna drive an hour and a half each way to not pay sales tax but it’s only $73 in tax. Probably cost $30alone in gas. So I’ll probably just order it online and pick up in store. I really wish stores stocked that version.

I don’t know if it is applicable to you but try to play with internet checkout page on apple.

For us in midwest, store pickup is a physical sale thus sales tax is greater percentage, versus ordering the same thing to be shipped.

That's a custom config, as is the 24GB ram version, etc. Apple only has 3 standard skews of each screen size. All are on sale at amazon. Thankfully, apple now has at least 1 skew with 16GB ram, so we can take advantage of 3rd party sales.
 
I would be ashamed to sell a modern powerful (CPU wise as these are) computer with 256GB of SSD. Even 16GB of RAM is almost a joke.

Obviously I would never buy one if I had the money.

Disgusting.
