When someone asks what laptop to buy, my default answer is the MacBook Air. And the latest model is even cheaper and better than before. The new M4 MacBook Air has a faster chip, updated webcam and double the RAM—and it costs $100 less.

Apple’s MacBook Air M1 redefined lightweight performance, and now you can get it at a fraction of the original price. For a limited time, this grade-A refurbished 2020 MacBook Air is available for just $514.

Coming in 13- and 15-inch sizes, the new MacBook Air with M4 is faster than its predecessors, but also has extended battery life, with a claimed 18 hours worth of juice in normal use. There's a new 12-megapixel Center Stage camera on board too.
