This close to Christmas, after basically months of incredible deals on Apple gear, I didn’t expect to be telling folks we have one of the best deals of the year on an M4 MacBook Air today. The most affordable 24GB M4 MacBook Air is headlining today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break at $300 off the list price to undercut all of the best Black Friday deals that surfaced this year. That offers joins a chance to save on Apple Pencil Pro, Apple’s iPhone Air Bumper, official 240W USB-C cables, and Best Buy’s final 48-hour holiday flash sale. Scope it all out down below.
Hello! Most affordable 24GB M4 MacBook Air now $300 off (Undercuts Black Friday)
Just when it looked like all the holiday deals were cooked, B&H just pulled one of the M4 MacBook Air deals of the year out of the oven. Amazon is still offering $250 off just about all of the M4 MacBook Air configs it sells, but B&H is landing this morning with one of the best prices we have ever tracked on a 24GB model, and the most affordable one at that. You can now score $300 off the 13-inch 24GB/256GB configuration.
B&H is now offering Apple’s 13-inch M4 MacBook Airwith 24GB of RAM and the 256GB SSD down at $899 shipped. This is a regularly $1,199 configuration at $300 off the list price for the best we can find.
Amazon still has the entry 16GB model with the 256GB SSD down at $749, or $250 off, but it does not sell the particular 24GB configuration B&H has on sale here today. The 24GB config Amazon sells has the 512GB SSD and it is still sitting at the $1,149 Black Friday/holiday price ($250 off).
Again, all M4 MacBook configs were $250 off for Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and thereafter in the lead up to Christmas, like they are right now at Amazon. But, much like it did for one day during Black Friday on the new M5 MacBook Pro, B&H is serving up arguably the best deal of the season on a 24GB M4 MacBook Air that delivers a deeper discount than any of the major retailers.
One might argue the 256GB internal SSD leaves a bit to be desired for the sort of folks that would consider a 24GB RAM setup, but this is the most affordable way to score a 24GB M4 MacBook Air and it is now seeing the deepest deal we have seen on any of the least pricey configs over the last couple months. And I all the way prefer paying for the RAM upgrade tax than the storage. Best Buy had the most affordable 16GB at $749 with a $25 gift card attached, and that was a particularly great offer for sure, but everyone knows how much I love a good 24GB RAM upgrade these days.
I might argue this is the best M4 MacBook Air deal of the year.
Today’s accessories and charging deals:
Black Apple Watch Ultra 2 with Black Milanese Loop now $250 off, more from $550
This morning’s launch of Best Buy’s final Holiday Doorbusters ushered back in the $250 price drops across the Apple Watch Ultra 2 lineup. Just about every configuration is now $250 off again, but we wanted to shine some extra light on the black Ultra 2 configuration over at Amazon with the gorgeous Black Titanium Milanese Loop. Arguably the nicest Apple Watch combination out there, this one is also seeing a deep $250 price drop right now.
Amazon is now offering the black Apple Watch Ultra 2 with the matching Black Titanium Milanese Loop down t $649 shipped. This is a regularly $899 configuration seeing a deep $250 price drop today to match the best price we have tracked for the holiday season.
As pretty as that black case is with the Black Titanium Milanese Loop strapped to either end, and it seriously is, you are paying a premium for this band – just about every other configuration can be had for $100 less right now:
Best Buy’s stock at $250 is largely focused on the black case models, but there are some Natural titanium units live at the discounted rate right now too:
All of these deals are on par with our previous motion – Best Buy offered these same $250 price drops earlier this week as part of its one-day Tech the Halls event before they all. Jumped up in price by $50. The deals are all now live again, and likely right through Christmas Eve (or until stock permits on the various band configurations).
For the record, the Ultra 3 is still back up very close to its full price starting at just under $799 – the Series 11 models, however, are largely still seeing $100 price drops:
