Apples new M5 MacBook Air is the cheapest its ever been at Amazon

SAVE $149: As of April 6, the new Apple MacBook Air (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is cheaper than it was during the Amazon Big Spring Sale in both the 13-inch and 15-inch models. Get the 13-inch for $949.99 (reg. $1,099) and the 15-inch for $1,149.99 (reg. $1,299).

Just shy of a month old, the new Apple MacBook Air officially has its biggest discount to date. Yes, it's now even cheaper than it was during Amazon's Big Spring Sale, which just wrapped up last week.

As of April 6, both the 13-inch and 15-inch M5 MacBook Airs are $149.01 off their list prices of $1,099 and $1,299, bringing the starting prices down to just $949.99 or $1,149.99. That's $100 cheaper than both models were during the Spring Sale. Not to mention, both base models are already technically $100 cheaper than their predecessors, making this an even better value. Both base models feature 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

TBH, the M5 MacBook Air isn't a whole lot different than the M4 Air, but that's not a bad thing. Both laptops are incredibly powerful and competitively priced. Besides the M5 chip being a step up from the M4, they now start with more base storage, are configurable with up to 4TB (up from 2TB), and feature Apple's N1 wireless chip for WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 6 support. Otherwise, the specs are largely comparable to the previous generation. The M5 Air still packs a 60Hz Liquid Retina display, 12MP Center Stage webcam, dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, and 18-hour battery life.

If you already own an M4 Air, there's not a huge incentive here to upgrade. But if you're rocking an older MacBook, I highly recommend grabbing the M5 model in either size while it's $149 cheaper. This deal turns an already solid value laptop into a spectacular one, shrinking the gap between the Air and Apple's budget Neo laptop to just $350.
