Well ahead of Black Friday, the MacBook Air is already $200 off, bringing down the price of the 13-inch model with an M5 chip, 16 GB of RAM, and 512 GB of storage to $1,099.

It's extremely well-built, the performance and battery life are both top-notch, and it's still one of the thinnest laptops you can buy. There's a reason it tops my list of laptop recommendations—even after having tested dozens of new models this year.
