Apple's 13-inch M2 MacBook Air drops to new low

Midway through the workweek, Best Buy is now offering its best price yet for Apple's latest 13-inch M2 MacBook Air. Just in time for those last-minute back-to-school upgrades, the 13-inch Apple Silicon machine with 256GB of storage now starts at $899. Compared to the usual $1,099 price tag that Apple just dropped for excellence to make room for the new 15-inch Air, today's listing marks a new low with $200 off. It is also an additional $50 under our previous listing of new condition. The 512GB capacity model is also discounted from $200 to $1,199, which also marks a new low. Apple's latest M2 MacBook Air is powered by the latest internal chip and has a refreshed form factor. The 13-inch Liquid Retina display has a brightness of 500 nits to round out the wide P3 color support and is complemented by a 1080p FaceTime camera with three microphones and speakers with Spatial Audio, although the real highlight has to be the return of MagSafe charging, which makes the cut next to other I/O-like dual Thunderbolt ports.

Today's offer is $5 less than our previous listing and lands as the second best discount yet. For comparison, we haven't seen it sold since the summer of 2022. Level Bolt distinguishes itself from all other models on the market with an invisible design that hides in your door frame.

That unique design is accompanied by support for a variety of smart home features, culminating in HomeKit integration on top of Ring, using a smartphone app, or just popping out the old school key. We found it lived up to the novelty in our hands-on review.
