Macbook Air (2018) Review

The Christmas shopping season might be over for most, but some of the best deals on the most popular Apple products from 2018 have just started. Currently, as part of its Mega DealZone event, B&H is cutting up to $200 off the price of the MacBook Air and $500 off certain MacBook Pro models through December 28.

Following a round of similar deals from last week, the most interesting discount in this limited time sale happens to be on the 2018 MacBook Air. You can now grab multiple colors and variants of the latest MacBook Air for up to $200 off. The deal slashes the price of the model with 8GB RAM and a 128GB SSD down from $1,200 to $1,000. If you’re after more storage and multitasking power, B&H’s sale also covers 2018 MacBook Airs with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, or 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. That discount brings those prices down to $1,200, and $1,600, respectively.

As for the 2018 MacBook Pros, B&H is cutting prices off both the higher end 15-inch models and the basic 13-inch versions with the Touch Bar. Now $400 cheaper, you can grab a 13-inch space gray MacBook Pro with Touch Bar for $1,700, coming configured with a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 quad-core processor, 8GB of RAM, and a spacious 512GB SSD. For those with deeper pockets, the most powerful of the 15 inch MacBook Pro variants is now $500 off at $3,400. That model comes configured with a 2.9 GHz Intel Core i9 six-core processor, 32GB of RAM, the AMD Radeon Pro 560X GPU, and a 1TB SSD.

Elsewhere at B&H, the Mega DealZone event is cutting the price of the newest Mac Mini by up to $150. You can now get the Mac Mini with 3.6 GHz Intel Core i3 quad-core processor, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB SSD for $700, instead of $800. The more powerful Intel Core i5 six-core variant with 16GB RAM and 256GB SSD is discounted, too, now going for $1,150 instead of $1,300.

Several of the MacBook Air 2017 models, as well as older MacBook Pro models, are also being discounted as part of this event, but the 2018 Apple laptops are a better deal for their newer Intel processors and longer battery life. In our review of the new Mac Mini, we found that it offers all the desktop you need with its excellent processor performance. And with the 2018 MacBook Air, we liked its beautiful, thin, and light design, and excellent build quality.

Why you should buy a MacBook Air instead of a MacBook Pro
The MacBook Air on a table in front of a window.

The MacBook Air has officially caught up. Now with the M3 on board, the MacBook Air has gained the benefits of the new chip, which was previously available just on the MacBook Pro and iMac.

Choosing between the M3 15-inch MacBook Air and the 14-inch MacBook Pro is tough, and requires an in-depth look at differences in ports, displays, speakers, and more. It's a legitimately hard decision to make.

Picking out a new MacBook isn't as easy as it used to be.

The hardest choice in the lineup might be between the 15-inch MacBook Air and the 14-inch MacBook Pro. Both are now offered with the same M3 chip, despite there being a $300 difference in the base models. But when similarly configured, there's actually only a $100 difference between these two laptops.

I needed to buy a new MacBook. Here’s why I bought a power bank instead

I rely on a 13-inch MacBook Pro from 2020 for most of my work. Despite its age and being a base variant model, it continues to stack up well against my expectations for all these years.

Since MacBooks are known for longevity, the fact that my MacBook Pro still holds up well a few years later shouldn't sound surprising. However, the first signs of aging recently arrived in the form of a warning about the battery's plummeting health. I was already dreading the idea of having to replace what was otherwise a perfectly good laptop.
