Black Friday is the best time of the year to take advantage of huge sales for tech, especially if it's a rare Apple device sale. But it seems retailers are even willing to slash prices on M1 MacBook Air in their Black Friday deals, in order to make space for newer models. And now we have one of the best deals for an M1 MacBook Air.

Its performance is incredible thanks to the powerful M1 chip it's equipped with, and the battery life is excellent.
