One of my kids had a college visit recently. Everyone had Macbooks.

At $950 it has historically been pegged at the #1 spot on Amazons best sellers in the laptop category. It has been recently unseated by the Neo.

Wait until retailers start discounting the Neo.

What $700 MacBook Air?

Marsymars a day ago | parent | next [-]

Walmart has been selling the M1 MacBook Air for $700 for the past couple years. (And $650 for the latter part of that time frame.)

Those weren't leftover stock or sale prices - Apple was producing the M1 MBA specifically for the $700 price point at third-party retailers.

My M4 Air was $750 on black friday 2025. I bought it after I cracked the screen on my M1 and the cost to repair was half the cost of the much newer computer.

Costco and other in-person retailers marked down the M1 MBA to $799 and then $699 while reducing their stock.

		It doesn’t make sense to compare MSRP of one product to sale prices of another. I’m sure the Neo will see similar discounts in those situations too.
