The Apple MacBook Air M4 laptop is back on sale for only $799which is a great deal. This offer is for the model with 16 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. It’s available in several color combinations, but the silver one inexplicably costs $899.
We rank this as our favorite Apple laptop on our list of the best MacBook computers. Heck, it’s even our favorite laptop. Final point. Performance is exceptionally snappy thanks to the M4 chip. We appreciate the improved battery life, which now lasts around 18 hours per charge. That goes far beyond a full day of work.
The design is lightweight but durable. This has become a distinctive feature of modern MacBook Air computers. The screen is beautiful and spacious, although it’s technically only a 13-inch panel. It supports the P3 wide color gamut and can reach up to 500 nits of brightness.
This is a near-perfect laptop, but there are a couple of quirks. There is no USB-C port on the right side, which limits how users can organize accessories on a desk. Additionally, the display has a 60Hz refresh rate. Another potential complication is the looming specter of the M5 chip. The company has already launched the MacBook Pro M5, so a new MacBook Air is likely to arrive in the near future.
