Act fast - the MacBook Air M2 has plummeted to its cheapest price ever

Now, this is unexpected: the latest MacBook Air M2 has just dropped to its lowest price ever and is even cheaper than we saw it at over Black Friday. It's not clear how long this unexpected MacBook deal will be available, so grab it while you can if you've had an eye on Apple's premium laptop in the Christmas sales.

To get it, you'll want to head over to Amazon where the MacBook Air M2 is now $999 (was $1,199). That's an extra $50 saving on top of last month's discount, making it one of the year's best MacBook deals. It's also an unmissable price for the device that claims the top spot in our best laptop guide thanks to its stunning design, impressive performance, generous battery life and crisp display.

That new low also matches the original launch price of the previous MacBook Air M1, which can be picked up today for its cheapest ever price of $799 at Amazon (was $999). Those on a tighter budget who still need a powerful high-end laptop and creative powerhouse should definitely consider this as an alternative as it's a fantastic offer for the last-generation model.

But what if I'm in the UK, I hear you ask? Don't fret, you're not left out of the latest MacBook deal bonaza, either. Both the M2 and M1 models are on sale there, too, way ahead of this year's Boxing Day sales. 

You can get the MacBook Air M2 at Amazon for £1,119 (was £1,249) - that's just £10 more than the lowest price yet. And then there's the MacBook Air M1 at Amazon for £829.99 (was £999.99), which is the cheapest price ever for the premium laptop.
