If you need more storage, the 512GB model MacBook Air (Space Gray) is also on sale for $1,050 ($250 off). This is the lowest price we've ever seen for this configuration. The discount is applied at checkout. 

If battery life, a comfy keyboard and fast SSD are a priority to you, the MacBook Air is the best laptop to buy. 

It packs a 13.3-inch (2560 x 1600) Retina display, a backlit Magic Keyboard, Touch ID, a 1.1-GHz 10th Gen Intel Core i3 quad-core CPU and Intel Iris Plus graphics.

As we note in our MacBook Air 2020 review, we found its sleek design, great battery life and clicky, comfortable Magic Keyboard impressive. We gave it an overall rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars. Design-wise, the MacBook Air sports an anodized aluminum finish and the iconic Apple logo on its lid. Apple wisely ditched those problematic Butterfly keys for the new Magic Keyboard found in the 16-inch MacBook Pro

At 2.8 pounds and 11.9 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches, the 2020 MacBook Air has the same dimensions as its predecessor, the MacBook Air (2019). It's also on par with the 2.8-pound, 12.1 x 8.3 x 0.6-inch HP Envy 13 (Wood Edition, 2020) and lighter than the Lenovo Yoga C740 (3 pounds, 12.7 x 8.5 x 0.6 ~ 0.7 inches).

Don't hesitate to scoop up the MacBook Air for its best price yet. 

Black Friday falls on November 27 and we expect to see tons of deals on the industry's best mobile tech. Be sure to bookmark our Black Friday 2020 deals hub for this year's best holiday discounts.
