Should You Wait for the M4, or Take Advantage of Amazon's M3 - M2 Deals?

Published: October 22, 2024

When looking at the latest laptop discounts on Amazon, two Apple models catch the eye:

  1. Apple 2022 MacBook Air Laptop (With M2 Chip)
    Features:

    • 13.3-inch Liquid Retina Display
    • 8GB RAM
    • 256GB SSD Storage
      This model, which sold over 7,000 units last month, is currently on sale for $849, with a 15% discount!

  1. Apple 2024 MacBook Air 13-inch Laptop (With M3 Chip)
    Features:

    • 13.6-inch Liquid Retina Display
    • 8GB Unified Memory
    • 256GB SSD Storage
      The 2024 MacBook Air is offered at $899, with an 18% discount.

Looking at the $50 difference, I think it's worth it for the upgrade from the M2 to M3 chip. Whether 256GB storage is enough depends on your personal usage and needs.

Conclusion

If you're thinking about buying an Apple laptop, these deals are worth checking out. However, keep in mind that 256GB storage might feel limited as time goes on. While the M3 chip is currently the latest, Apple is expected to release new models with the M4 chip in November! So, you might be wondering, "Will prices drop even further when the new chip comes out?"

In the end, you can either buy now and enjoy the technology right away, or if you're patient, wait a bit longer to see what the new model brings. But beware! Once the new model is released, the discounts on the current models could suddenly disappear, and it might take a while for them to return.

So, the decision is yours – just remember that you might not be able to avoid spending money on a laptop! smiley
