By Noah McGraw Updated December 4, 2020

If you thought Cyber Monday deals were the last sales till the end of the year, let me present to you this insane MacBook deal. Walmart is selling the

13.3-inch Macbook Air for only $890

during Cyber Week. This laptop usually runs for over $1,335, so this is a pretty crazy opportunity. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading to a MacBook Air but haven’t pulled the trigger, reward yourself for holding off with these great savings, and check out our roundup of some other great Cyber Week Apple MacBook deals.

MacBook Airs have long been the choice laptop for students and professionals alike. At 13.3 inches, the whole laptop is just a bit bigger than a sheet of printer paper, and when closed it’s only 0.61 inches thick. It will barely add any weight to your backpack or messenger bag. This MacBook Air sports 11 hours of battery life, so you can bring your laptop to work or a coffee shop and leave the charger at home. The current gen processor can keep up with multiple applications at once, and the Full HD display will give you a beautiful array of colors — rich tones contrasted with deep blacks. True Tone technology means the screen even adjusts tones to match whatever lighting you’re in at the time. It’s a seamless user experience.

On top of all that, they offer the typical sleek design you can expect from Apple. Apple prides itself on its user-friendly device integration. So pair the Macbook Air with some equally sweet Apple accessories, also on sale this week through this Cyber Week Apple AirPods deal, and everything will sync beautifully. For instance, use Touch ID to log into your computer with a fingerprint — the same way you unlock your phone. All part of Apple’s famous integrated experience.

Apple just released the 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M2 Pro chip last month, but the powerful laptop is already on sale from B&H with a $200 discount that brings its price down to $1,799 from its original price of $1,999. It's still not cheap, but it's very rare for a new model to appear in MacBook deals. It's highly recommended that you take advantage of this chance while it's still online, as there's not much time left before it gets taken down.

Why you should buy the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M2 Pro chip
Apple's MacBook Pro M2 Pro is slightly less powerful than the MacBook Pro M2 Max, but for most users in creative fields such as photography, filmmaking, graphic arts, and music development, it's got what it takes to meet the high requirements of the job. Compared with the MacBook Pro M1 Pro, the latest model of the laptop features the same flat-edged design, mini-LED display, and port arrangement, but the performance boost from the updated chip makes the MacBook Pro M2 Pro an even better mobile workstation for professionals.
