Overview

• Amazon lists the 13‑inch M4 MacBook Air at $999 in the U.S., a lowest‑ever price verified by price tracker camelcamelcamel.
• In the U.K., Sky reduced its MacBook Air plan to £20 per month on a 48‑month contract with a £2 upfront fee, which outlets describe as the offer’s lowest monthly rate.
• Retailers are still clearing M3 inventory, including a 15‑inch model with 512GB storage and 24GB memory at $1,199 on Amazon, according to 9to5Mac.
• 9to5Mac reports that an equivalent M4 configuration typically costs $200–$400 more, trading M3 savings for a 12MP Center Stage camera, Thunderbolt 4 with open‑lid dual‑display support, and roughly 10–20% faster performance.
• Reviewers note practical limits such as only two USB‑C ports on one side, while battery life remains rated at up to 18 hours and Apple Intelligence features are built in.
