A good deal’s a good deal.
Albeit Apple’s Chicago-based mystery education event is only two days away and there’s a slight chance the company will introduce a lower-priced MacBook Air aimed at students, Best Buy is currently offering the entry-level 128GB 13-inch MacBook Air for $300 off.
This brings the price down to about $699, the lowest price ever for a new MacBook Air notebook. Students are also eligible for an additional $50 discount and can pick up the device for $650.
The same deal applies to the higher-end models, which means the 256GB model is available for $900 (down from $1,200) or the 512GB model is available for $1,250 (down from $1,550).
The MacBook Air features a a 1140×900 glossy display and a 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 Dual Core chip and arrives loaded with macOS High Sierra and 8GB of RAM.
Not a bad deal, no matter how you slice it.
