Walmart is selling the M1 MacBook Air for only $700

Best Buy is selling the M1 MacBook Air for just $650, which is a record low price for Apple’s laptop. This beats the previous record low by $100.

It’s a solid machine that excels with basic everyday computing tasks, like streaming content and surfing the web. That doesn’t exactly track anymore (the march of progress and all) but the M1 Air features a gorgeous Retina display and no fan noise to speak of, in addition to an excellent keyboard and trackpad. Apple Silicon chips are pretty dang impressive, but the M1 will struggle when you go beyond everyday computing tasks and into the worlds of serious video editing and AAA gaming.
