It’s easy to fall into the trap of using the same laptop for years. Sure, it might be a little slow, the apps don’t work quite the way you want, and it sometimes crashes and eats up what you’re working on, but there’s nothing really wrong with it…right? Dump all that invisible stress that your old craptop causes for you day after day by taking advantage of this post-Prime Big Deal Days deal on an Apple 2022 MacBook Air for 25% off.

One Of The Best Apple Laptops

You probably don’t need me to sell you on the benefits of a MacBook, but as a long-time tech writer with years of experience writing about Apple products, I’ll do it anyway. This MacBook Air’s 13.6-inch display is the perfect size for daily use, as it’s compact enough to easily fit in a low-profile bag. Its 8GB of RAM is quick enough to run all the programs you need for your daily life, and its 256 GB solid-state drive is blazing fast compared to a traditional hard drive. 18 hours of battery life is certainly nothing to scoff at, and the HD Retina display shows you everything in crisp, beautiful colors.

But you don’t have to take my word for it. In Digital Trends’ Apple MacBook Air M2 review, reviewer Luke Larsen praised the laptop’s “shockingly good performance” and its physical hardware, especially its upgraded webcam, speakers, screen, and keyboard. He praised it as one of the best laptops on the market, up there with the MacBook Air 13-inch M3, the MacBook Pro 14-inch, and the HP Laptop 15.

It’s time to finally say goodbye to your faithful old work laptop and buy a sleek device that you’ll actually look forward to using day in and day out.

What’s actually new and different on the MacBook Pro PROLED XDR? Here’s everything you need to know
Touchscreen vs. non-touchscreen MacBook Pro differences

Apple has unveiled its first-ever touchscreen MacBook Pro. The company seems a bit confused about the naming, calling it the "MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display," which is tough to remember. If you look past that and review the full spec sheets, you might ask a genuine question: what are the differences between the touchscreen and non-touchscreen versions?

Given that Apple continues to sell both variants together, that's a genuine question. Luckily, you don't have to spend more time lining up the spec sheets side by side and hunting for differences hidden in the fine print. I took that bullet for you. Here's everything that's different between the PROLED XDR Display and the regular MacBook Pro.
