I have an M1 MBA with 16GB/512GB that I bought as a refurb for $800 in 2021. I actually prefer the charger to be USB-C rather than Apple's proprietary charger. I'll save my money and hold on to my MBA M1 for a long while, I believe.

You can still charge via USB-C newer Macs, MagSafe is just a plus.

Costco Canada also has a CA$200 off coupon for the MBA, which ends March 2.

I think the new M4 MacBook Air will launch in March.

 

[CarpalMac]

No opportunity to claim "Record Low"? Must be painful.

 

[MayaUser]

"Apple is planning to launch the M4 MacBook Air in March and is now preparing its marketing, sales and retail teams for the debut"

 

[turbineseaplane]

Dumping stock

If you can wait, I'd continue to do so with the M4 MBAs coming any time now

 

[thefrost]

I would wait for the M4 Macbook Air.

You’re still in luck with all newer MacBooks too then.

I tend to use the USB-C much more with my MBPro simply because it's already plugged in for the iPad or my older MacBook. It's good to have both options.

 

[noobinator]

Is been this price for awhile on Amazon. This is not news.

 

[Aeronauts]

I hope we don’t have to wait much longer. Early March would be exactly a year since the last update.

 

[wanha]

I've had the M2 MBAir since launch and it is the best computer I have ever owned - fast, capable, slim and beautiful.

Feels brand new even after 2.5 years of daily use.

My wife has the 14" M3 MBP and it is a freaking brick compared to the Air.

 

[nStyle]

Yep, I've never even used the MagSafe charger on my M1 MBP lol. Always USB-C.

 

[NeonNights]

Ditto. My MagSafe charger is still in the box with the original wrapping paper.

 

[Rychiar]

How is that not just the normal price by now?

Micro Center has the M3 MacBook Air at the same price-

Apple MacBook Air 13" MRXV3LL/A (early 2024) 13.6" Laptop Computer - Midnight; Apple M3 8-Core CPU; 8GB Unified - Micro Center

Get it now! Lean. Mean. M3 machine. MacBook Air sails through work and play - and the M3 chip brings even greater capabilities to the worlds most popular laptop. With up to 18 hours of battery life, you can take the superportable MacBook Air anywhere and blaze through whatever youre into.

This computer is only $100 more than iphone 16E 😂

 

[Howard2k]

This computer is only $100 more than iphone 16E 😂

$0.644/gram for the MacBook Air
$3.524/gram for the iPhone 16E.

Since we're in the land of silly comparisons

?? Apple laptops have had Thunderbolt with USB-C charging for many years, and still do. Many Mac laptops additionally have (my personal preference) MagSafe ports. When you use a TB port just for charging on an MBA you are wasting 50% of your TB ports. More modern MBAs with MagSafe still have both TB ports available while plugged in to the MagSafe charger.

My guess is MBA buyers probably need less i/o throughput anyway, which is one of the reasons they buy MBAs instead of the much more competent MBPs. Obviously if you happen to be connecting to the right peripheral you can use the TB and concurrently charge through the same port, often at a slower rate of charge. I have never had any issues while charging quite slowly on my 2016 MBP.

You mean around $500 more

But the MacBook doesn’t have a contract or service fee, so it has that going for it.

I wish microcenter shipped to me. :\

There's no requirement that the iPhone have a contract/service fee (beyond the 1 month needed to get the discounted price) either if you don't need a mobile wireless connection. Just connect it to Wi-Fi (at home, work, library, Starbucks, etc) as you would the MacBook.

 

[seanmcbay]

I wish having more hard drive space didn’t increase the price so much. 256gb is too low for me.
