M2 MacBook Air: A Sleek and Portable Option for General Productivity
The M2 MacBook Air: Still a Viable Option
Last year, Apple released an M3-chipped MacBook Air, leaving many to wonder if the M2 version would be discontinued. However, the M2 MacBook Air still offers a sleek and portable option for general productivity and work on the go.
Performance and Multitasking
The M2 13in MacBook Air initially came with 8GB of RAM, which could struggle with heavy multi-tasking or editing across multiple layers. However, Apple discontinued the 8GB version and introduced a 16GB configuration, starting at a lower price point.
Best Buy’s Presidents’ Day Deal
For a limited time, Best Buy is offering a $200 discount on the M2 MacBook Air, reducing the price to $799. This is not a new deal, as it has appeared on several occasions since Black Friday last year, when the price briefly dropped to $699. However, it remains the best deal for most general users who need a highly portable laptop for work or school.
More Screen Space
If you prefer a larger screen, Best Buy is also offering $200 off the 15-inch M3 MacBook Air, now priced at $1,099. We gave this model 4.5 stars in our original review.
