Even with a new M2 model for $999 and an M3 model for just $1,099, the M1 MacBook Air is still a fantastic laptop. Especially when it’s at a crazy low price: Walmart is selling the M1 MacBook Air with 256GB of storage in silver, gold, or space gray for $699, a savings of $300, and the best price we’ve ever seen.
This MacBook Air has the classic wedge design with the original M1 processor (8-core CPU/7-core GPU), and it’s still an incredible performer for everyday tasks like email and web browsing. You’ll get the whisper-quiet Air design with a gorgeous 13.2-inch retina display, a pair of Thunderbolt ports, and a fantastic Magic Keyboard with Touch ID. In our 2020 review, we praised the M1 Air’s performance and it’ll still be more than capable of running macOS 15 when it arrives this fall.
We’ve never seen a non-refurbished model for this cheap and we’re not sure how long it will be available until stock runs out, so go grab one now if you’re looking for a fantastic budget laptop.
