Apple's newly released M5 MacBook Air is already seeing early discounts on Amazon. The 13-inch model has dropped to $1,049, offering a $50 savings off its regular retail price.
Apple released the updated model earlier this month. While it keeps the same fanless aluminum design, the internal hardware took a major step forward. The laptop now runs on the M5 chip, which embeds a Neural Accelerator into each core to speed up Apple Intelligence and other local AI tasks.
Base storage across the lineup now starts at 512GB, paired with 16GB of unified memory. The laptops feature 13.6-inch and 15.3-inch Liquid Retina displays with up to 500 nits of brightness. Connectivity has also improved, with the inclusion of Apple's custom N1 chip to enable Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6. Physical ports include two Thunderbolt 4 connections and a dedicated MagSafe charging port, and the device supports up to two external displays.
The webcam has been upgraded to a 12MP Center Stage camera with Desk View support. Early hands-on reviews highlight these enhancements alongside faster SSD speeds as meaningful quality-of-life improvements for everyday workflows. For those needing a larger screen, the 15-inch M5 MacBook Air is also marked down, dropping to $1,249.99 from its standard $1,299 price tag.
