The Apple MacBook Air 13-inch M3 is one of the best laptops out there, and right now it’s the best MacBook money can buy in my book – made even more tempting by the fact that there are still good deals to be had on this notebook.

Yes, Amazon Prime Day may be well in the rearview mirror at this point, but there are still some top MacBook discounts to be found, with the MacBook Air M3 benefiting from a 13% price cut at Amazon right now.

That adds up to a $200 saving, which is pretty tidy indeed, making the asking price $1,299. That’ll get you a powerful take on the 13-inch notebook, with 16GB of unified memory plus 512GB of storage.

The MacBook Air M3 is sleek, powerful, and futureproof, and in all honesty, it’s my dream laptop, so I’m so glad to see it selling for this kind of money. The slight catch here is that the deal is on the ‘midnight’ color (near-black), so those not wanting a dark color scheme will have to look elsewhere.

People in the UK can bag the same MacBook Air M3 model with a slightly lesser discount of 7%, but that still represents a solid saving of £102, with the laptop reduced from £1,499 to £1,397.

Either way, you’re getting quite the bargain with a top-notch Apple laptop.
