It had to happen Now that Apple's new MacBook Air has been released, the traditional Intel-based MacBook Air has been significantly reduced in price

Currently, Amazon is offering the Apple MacBook Air for $84999 That's a $150 discount and the lowest price for this 2020 model laptop It is also one of the best Black Friday deals of the week (Note: Amazon offers an on-screen coupon that lowers the price to $84999 at checkout)

Need more storage space? Amazon also offers a MacBook Air (512GB) for $1,04999 That's $199 off and one of the best Apple Black Friday sales we've seen

When we tested the MacBook Air 2020 earlier this year, we were suitably impressed by its elegant design, powerful speakers, and many other features

But the biggest upgrade to the MacBook Air is the new Magic Keyboard This keyboard has improved key travel and a more durable design than the older MacBook laptop Other features include a brilliant Retina display, dual Thunderbolt 3 ports, and powerful speakers

We think the latest MacBook Air deserves a spot on our Best Laptops list Of course, there are newer MacBook Airs with Apple CPUs, but at this price point, it's hard to resist the superior Intel-based models
