The MacBook Air M5 is a powerhouse laptop. In Mashable’s review, Timothy Werth said: “The new MacBook Air takes everything good about the MacBook Air and adds the faster M5 chip.” Werth described it as a “near-perfect machine.”
As of May 16, the 13-inch MacBook Air M5 is on sale for $999 at Amazon—a $100 discount off its list price.
We have been tracking the new MacBook Air M5’s price since its release this year. While $949 has been its lowest price, the current $999 deal is still worth considering as prices might rise.
This $999 offer is available for the midnight and sky blue models. Prices may increase before Prime Day. However, please don’t assume we’re suggesting Amazon might inflate prices before Prime Day sales.
Score the MacBook Air M5 for under $1,000 at Amazon while it’s still available.
