Best Buy has started its Black Friday sale already, and right now you can pick up the Apple MacBook Air for just $949. That’s going to save you $150 off of its regular price. Making this a really great deal, since this is the most recent version with the M2 chipset. The MacBook Air with M3 has not been announced yet, and likely won’t be until at least the Spring.

The MacBook Air M2 has been my favorite laptop, and it has also been Apple’s most popular laptop ever. It’s not hard to see why. The MacBook Air M2 is super thin and light, while offering incredible battery life and performance. Talking about battery life, I’ve used this for a full workday, using Chrome, Google Meet, Zoom, and a few other apps, and still had about 60% left after an eight-hour workday. Now that is impressive, and it did not miss a beat.

One of the great features that Apple Silicon brings is performance. And that’s on battery and on power. So whether your MacBook Air is plugged in or not, you’re going to get the same performance. Unlike some PCs where power is limited when it is not plugged in, to try and conserve battery life. Since the MacBook Air is already so good on battery life, that’s not needed here.

With the MacBook Air M2, you’re getting the new redesign, which looks incredible and does bring back MagSafe to the Mac. This is a really great feature to have, because if someone or something gets caught on your charging cable, it won’t pull your MacBook Air off of the table, it’ll simply unplug. You’ll also get two USB-C/Thunderbolt ports and a headphone jack. Surprisingly, Apple has left the headphone jack intact here, unlike with their iPhones.

The only people I would not recommend the MacBook Air to are those that need more RAM. Or those that want a much better display like the Mini LED display on the MacBook Pro. But for most people, the MacBook Air is perfect.
