We think the 13-inch MacBook Air with M3 chip is the best laptop for most people, and unsurprisingly, it's also our top pick for the best MacBook you can buy. Engadget's Devindra Hardawar gave it a review score of 90 when the computer came out last month. It's thin and light but sturdy, and the keyboard and trackpad are comfortable to use.

The bright screen is accurate and the battery will last much longer than a typical work day. The new chip gives the laptop a performance boost according to our benchmark tests, which should help power users, but may not be as noticeable in productivity tasks. The only potential drawback is the USB-C ports located only on one side, but otherwise this is a fantastic laptop, especially at that price. Again, you can buy it at amazon;elmt:;cpos:8;pos:1″ href=”https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&siteId=us-engadget&pageId=1p-autolink&featureId=text-link&merchantName=amazon&custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsImxhbmRpbmdVcmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL2dwL2F3L2QvQjBDWDIzVjJaSy8_dGFnPWdkZ3QwYy1wLXYtcnktMjAiLCJjb250ZW50VXVpZCI6ImQ2MWE4MmNiLTExZjctNGI3MC04NDYwLTUxYzRmN2UxMzA1MSJ9&signature=AQAAAZL7CAfH7ef9m5MYl23lU3jR2Ugz5-HXfzW872nLwuWt&gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Faw%2Fd%2FB0CX23V2ZK%2F” class=”link rapid-with-clickid etailiffa-link” rel=”nofollow noopener” target=”_blank” data-ylk=”slk:amazon;elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:amazon;elmt:;cpos:8;pos:1;itc:0;sec:content-canvas”>amazon either Photo video in B&H in multiple color combinations.

This is a solid model for creators, as the M3 Pro has recording power and is very easy to connect with three Thunderbolt 4 ports, an HDMI port, a headphone jack, a MagSafe charging port, and even a card slot SDXC. If you've been looking to buy, it's best to act soon before the deal ends or stocks run out.
