Even when they’re on sale, a new MacBook Air is pretty expensive. But if you want an Apple laptop, you don’t need to spend a fortune when Walmart is selling the M1 MacBook Air in all three colors for $599 right now.
Back when we reviewed the M1 MacBook Air, we gave it a 4.5-star rating and our Editor’s Choice award, appreciating its fantastic performance, silent operation, and how good the battery life is. Sure, that was some years ago, but our review stands — this is still a fantastic laptop for light work. In fact, the M1 chip, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage are perfectly capable of running Apple Intelligence, as well as macOS 26 Tahoe in the fall.
Granted, it won’t compete with the M4 MacBook Air, which has a faster chip, newer design, better camera, and more RAM, but we love Apple’s classic wedge design, and the M1 chip is still a great performer, especially at this price. So go grab one for $599 while Walmart still has it on sale.
