Amazon Slashes 13‑Inch M5 MacBook Air Prices by $150

The cuts create the lowest post-summer prices on select 1TB M5 Air configurations and make availability a short-lived purchasing window for buyers.

Overview

  • Amazon is discounting two 13-inch M5 MacBook Air 1TB configurations by $150, offering the 16GB/1TB model for $1,449 and the 24GB/1TB model for $1,649.
  • The discounted 16GB/1TB and 24GB/1TB models are listed in all four colors at the time of reporting but retailers and deal sites warn that specific finishes and stock can sell out quickly.
  • Deal coverage from multiple outlets describes these offers as the best prices seen since Apple raised MacBook Air prices over the summer, making this a notable short-term savings opportunity.
  • The 2026 MacBook Air features the new M5 chip with a 10-core CPU, doubled base storage of 512GB, and Apple’s N1 wireless chip for Wi‑Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, which helps explain why buyers are watching these discounts closely.
  • Reporting on the discounts includes affiliate disclosures from publishers and buyers should compare new listings with Apple Certified Refurbished options before buying because prices and availability change fast.
