Rare Apple Deal: Save $50 on New 15-Inch MacBook Air

Early adopters know: Apple doesn't do markdowns and discounts, especially with hardware that's fresh on the market. It's part of the mystique of the brand. So getting $50 off the new 15-inch MacBook Air(Opens in a new window) is a big deal.

We gave the MacBook Air an “Outstanding” rating in our review, praising its gorgeous Liquid Retina display, stylish aluminum chassis, and larger Force Touch trackpad, which gives you more precise control and room to maneuver while still delivering haptic feedback. The larger form factor enables six-speaker sound, including dual woofers.

Performance is top of the line, with the 10-core GPU dominating our benchmark tests, and the advertised 18 hours of battery life on a single charge is a game-changer. This is a general-purpose laptop that could absolutely replace a desktop computer with no sweat, and you can't beat the price right now.
