Apple's MacBooks are some of the best laptops around these days and they consistently impress thanks to their speedy performance and incredibly long battery life. Apple recently updated its popular MacBook Air lineup with its latest M3 processor, and the new M3 MacBook Air is its best yet. Available in 13-inch and 15-inch display sizes, the new laptop comes in a variety of configurations and gorgeous colors and there are some notable discounts to be had as well. We've found all the very best and laid them out below so all you have to do is pick one and place that order before the deal ends.

These new MacBook Air models are available in two sizes: 13 and 15 inches. If you prefer a larger screen for your workstation, the 15-inch version will serve you well, without being too cumbersome when you're traveling. If you want something a little smaller, the 13-inch may be a better fit. Each laptop provides up to 18 hours of battery life per charge. It's worth noting that you will need to have your lid closed to support two displays with the M3 models, so be sure you consider that as you shop. 

You can buy the new MacBook Air right now from Apple, Amazon, Best Buy and B&H and bring one of these sleek, upgraded devices home at a discount, but we'll keep you updated on the latest deals as new ones drop and others expire.

If you don't necessarily need the power that comes with the new upgrade, considering other models may be a good idea. With the M3 models now widely available, it's a good time for bargain hunters to spend even less by taking advantage of discounts that may be available on MacBook Air M2 devices. If you want the latest version, you can snag yourself one of the M3 models right now at the links below.

M3 MacBook Air deals

The latest MacBook Air model comes equipped with an M3 chip, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. You can choose from either the 13.6-inch display or the larger 15.3-inch screen. You can upgrade to more storage and RAM, but those upgrades will up the cost. The 13-inch model starts at $1,099, while the 15-inch model begins at $1,299. All configurations are currently available. 

While there are no discounts currently available, Apple does have a program where you can trade in your old Mac, which can save you hundreds on your upgrade, depending on the model and condition of your device. Additionally, you can get 3% cash back if you check out using your Apple Card. Or score an Education discount of $100 if you qualify. 

Amazon is currently offering $100 off multiple MacBook Air configurations including different colors. This means that prices start from $099 for the entry-level model.

Best Buy will currently sell you a MacBook Air starting from $999 as part of a sale that saves $100 off various different configurations and colors. You can also save up to $900 extra by trading in your old laptop, too.

B&H also has the M3 MacBook Air collection available for purchase. While the company is matching the $100 discount offered by others, you can also get the tax back as cashback if you pay with B&H's own Payboo credit card.
