When it comes to light and portable laptops that ooze craftsmanship and sophistication, Apple always has something better to offer than the rest of the crowd. Apple has the MacBook Pro lineup for those with an active lifestyle, who also need to get huge files of 4K or 8K footage edited on the go. But if you’re just an average consumer who keeps a ton of Google Chrome tabs open and mostly binges on their favorite soap on Netflix, then look no further than the Apple MacBook Air M2. Even if you decide to try your hand at video production and editing, this compact powerhouse won’t disappoint you.

Samsung introduces an immense price cut on its Galaxy Book4 Pro laptop, featuring a 3K AMOLED screen and Intel Core 5 Ultra processor.
Apple just released the updated M4 version of the MacBook Air in March 2025 and, surprisingly, they dropped its launch price to $999. This means that retailers like BestBuy will be clearing stock of the M2 MacBook Airs for as low as $750. Considering how much power Apple Silicon possesses, it’s an insanely good deal for those who need an everyday laptop that isn’t bulky and is easy on the wallet.
Apple's M2 MacBook Air Specs
This older version still manages to be competitive against the new M4
The M2 MacBook Air is 11mm thick and weighs 2.7 lbs, which is identical to that of the M4. The construction is entirely of high-quality aluminum with rounded edges and a 13.6″ Liquid Retina IPS LED with a resolution of 2560x1664. The pixel-packed screen is ideal for content consumption as the visuals are highly immersive, and a maximum brightness of 500 nits ensures you can work on it even when outdoors. The device is available in four colorways: Silver, Starlight (gold), Midnight (dark blue), and Space Gray (dark gray).

You might be waiting considerably longer for your new RTX 5000 Series Gaming Laptop than originally expected.
The M2 chipset is Apple’s in-house development, which has shown monumental improvements over its counterparts from Intel and AMD. Its efficiency in delivering bursts of power for an entire day shows how well-optimized Apple Silicon is. As mentioned earlier, this machine has the strength to pull off intense workloads if need be. For all other purposes, you can probably squeeze out a few days without having to plug it in, which is impressive for its size, given that it’s Apple’s entry-level offering. The base variant comes with 8GB of DDR4 RAM, paired with 256GB of SSD storage. Considering the target audience are light users, 8GB of RAM will not pose issues. Should you need more storage, you can opt for the 512GB model, which is only $50 more.

Apple has switched back to the MagSafe charging port, which allows the user to use the two USB-C ports. This is accompanied by up to 67W of fast charging when using the MagSafe port, which further sweetens the change. You can connect one display of up to 6K at 60Hz to the laptop using the Thunderbolt 3 ports.
Not everything is perfect about the MacBook Air M2, as it does not support Wi-Fi 6E and only features Bluetooth 5.0, which is a bit outdated, though not a deal-breaker. The MacBook Air M2 is an all-rounder when it comes to laptops for daily driving and, at such a lucrative price of only $750, it makes more sense than its slightly refreshed M4 twin.
