Want a seriously cheap MacBook Air M4? This deal at Best Buy not only gets you a record-low price, but a fantastic trade-in rebate

If you're currently working on an older MacBook Air (or any laptop, for that matter), I have a deal that might just tempt you into upgrading to the MacBook Air 13 M4 at Best Buy. The retailer is currently listing the latest model for just $799 (was $999), which is a record-low price for the laptop that we still rate as the best choice for most people.

That's not news in itself, but it's a great starting point for an additional trade-in rebate you can stack on top of this week's upfront discount.

For example, if you have a slightly older MacBook Air M3 in good condition, you can get an impressive trade-in rebate of $600 – enough to bring the price of the latest model down to just $199. Even if you don't have an M3, you can still get a sizeable discount with Best Buy's relatively generous trade-in terms.

Combine these discounts, and you're getting a MacBook Air M4 for serious cheap. In fact, this particular deal is the same one we featured way back on Black Friday last November, so it's definitely one of the best (if not the best) deals we've seen yet on the MacBook Air M4.

Apple MacBook Air M4 deal at Best Buy

Apple MacBook Air 13 (M4): was $999 now $799, plus up to $600 off with a trade-in at Best Buy
Best Buy's current deal on the outstanding MacBook Air M4 is so good, it could tempt you into an upgrade. Not only is the retailer listing the latest model for its lowest ever price, but you can also supplement your discount even further by trading in an old laptop. Trade in a MacBook Air M3 in good condition, for example, and you'll get an impressive $600 off in addition to the $200 discount you're already getting upfront.

A great choice for most people

We're obviously big fans of the latest MacBook Air, having awarded the device an impressive four and a half stars in our MacBook Air 14 M4 review. It's a relatively iterative upgrade versus the previous generation, but it's a fantastic device that really hits the sweet spot in terms of value, power, and overall premium design.

Key upgrades include the latest M4 chipset for a boost in both power and efficiency, and a 12MP Center Stage Camera. That's a handy addition for calls and such because the lens is wider, but the camera will actually detect and follow you on-screen during calls, keeping you in frame.
