Cyber Monday is officially here If you're looking to get your hands on one of Apple's powerful laptops, now is the time We just spotted one of the best MacBook deals available

Right now, Amazon has the Apple MacBook Air M1 on sale for $869 This is a healthy $130 off and is one of the biggest price cuts we have seen for this 2020 laptop This sale applies to the 256GB configuration and is available in silver Keep in mind that the listing says "coming soon," but you can still add the device to your cart and pay the discounted amount at checkout This is because Apple products have a habit of selling out quickly and inventory is limited

The latest MacBook Air has a 13-inch 2,560 x 1,600 pixel Retina display, 8GB of RAM, Apple's 8-core M1 CPU, and a 256GB SSD, all in a slim 28 pound chassis that is easier to carry than the MacBook Pro

The MacBook Pro is a slim 28-pound case that is more portable than the MacBook Pro

In our review of the MacBook Air M1, we gave this model a near perfect score thanks to its outstanding performance, comfortable keyboard design, HD webcam, and extremely long-lasting battery We were also impressed with its True Tone technology, which is easy on the eyes as the display automatically adjusts to the environment

While the relatively thick bezel and lack of additional ports were not to our liking, the MacBook Air 2020 is still one of the best laptops available today In fact, we even stated that "the MacBook Air M1 has the speed and battery life to beat the best PCs"

In one test, thanks to the powerful M1 chip, the Air scored 5,962 in the Geekbench 51 (Intel) multi-core test, essentially a dead heat with the M1 MacBook Pro's 5,925 It also significantly outperformed the ZenBook 13's 5,084 and the XPS 13's 5,319 in the equivalent Geekbench 52 test (both tested with Intel Core i7-1165G7 CPU and 16GB RAM)

Overall, given that Apple laptops rarely go on sale, this bargain is an absolute steal And if you'd like to see other discounts on Apple devices, check out our Apple Cyber Monday Sale Deals
