Yet again, there's a chance for you to pick up one of Apple's premium laptops for its cheapest price ever. Both the latest MacBook Air M2 and the previous generation MacBook Air M1 are $200 off at Best Buy in the retailer's current four-day sale that features these and many more stellar laptop deals.

Let's start with the MacBook Air M2 that's now $999 (was $1,199). That beats the price we saw over Black Friday by $50, making it one of the best MacBook deals yet. It's a terrific price for the MacBook Air M2 as that device claims the top spot in our best laptop guide thanks to its stunning design, impressive performance, generous battery life and gorgeous display.

For those after a less expensive option, you could also consider the MacBook Air M1, which can be picked up right now for its cheapest ever price of $799 at Best Buy (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 bonanza, either. 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.

Best Buy has dropped the latest MacBook Air M2 back down to its lowest price since launch. We thought the Black Friday deal was the best we'd see for a while, but this extra $50 saving drops the premium laptop under the $1,000 mark once again. We rate this as the best laptop you can buy right now, thanks to its stylish design, clear display, impressive performance and long battery life.

The 2020 MacBook Air with an M1 chip is older but it's still one of the best laptops ever made - so this is a cracking MacBook deal. It's definitely worth considering if you're looking to spend a little less but still want a top-end Apple device. This configuration with 8GB memory and 256GB of SSD storage at Best Buy is down to the lowest price we've ever seen.
