Being an Apple fan has its perks, especially when retailers start slashing prices on Apple’s lineup of laptops. Among these deals, one offer is particularly catching everyone’s attention.

For a limited time, Walmart is still offering the 13-inch M1 MacBook Air for an enticing $699. While it typically hovers around $749 at various retailers, this current deal is the lowest we’ve seen yet, with no other retailer matching Walmart’s price so far.

Now, before you rush to Walmart to seal the deal, it’s worth checking out what Best Buy has up its sleeve. As of March 18th, Best Buy is offering the same M1 MacBook Air for just $650 — that’s $49 cheaper than Walmart’s offer. But, keep in mind, prices can fluctuate, so if Best Buy’s deal changes, you can always fall back on Walmart’s steady $699 price tag, thanks to their strong partnership with Apple.

It’s worth noting that when this deal initially went live, Walmart’s page experienced some sluggishness. However, the issue seems to have been resolved, and all three color options are currently in stock. If you encounter any loading problems, a simple page refresh should do the trick. It’s likely that the high traffic volume from eager shoppers seeking this great deal is causing the slowdown.

This MacBook Air isn’t just easy on the wallet; it’s also a powerhouse in terms of performance. Sporting a crisp 13-inch Retina display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, along with 8GB of RAM, Apple’s blazing-fast 8-core M1 CPU, and a generous 256GB SSD, it delivers seamless multitasking and lightning-fast responsiveness. All of this is neatly packaged in a sleek aluminum body measuring just 0.6 inches thick and weighing a mere 2.8 pounds.

And let’s not forget about battery life — Apple promises an impressive 18 hours of usage on a single charge, ensuring you stay productive throughout the day without constantly hunting for a power outlet.
