Stock of the MacBook Air M4 has pretty much vanished from online retailers. Plus, with the MacBook Air M5's new higher price, it's become impossible to find a sub $999 MacBook Air for back to school season. Fortunately, we spotted this killer deal at BackMarket.
For a limited time, BackMarket has the refurbished 13-inch MacBook Air M4 on sale for $870. That's $129 off its full $999 price and one of the few refurb deals we've seen for this amazing laptop. BackMarket provides a 30-day return period and you also get a 1-year warranty.
Although it's been replaced by the new M5 MacBook Air (from $1,299), the MacBook Air M4 is still an amazing laptop that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. New models of the M4 MacBook Air are near impossible to find, which makes this refurb offer an especially great deals.
Generally, for everyday tasks, creative work, photo editing, and even video editing and AAA gaming, the M4 chip in Apple's MacBook Air will be able to handle it without breaking a sweat. It's also an incredibly lightweight and slick laptop to carry around, weighing just 2.7 pounds and measuring a very slim 0.44 inches. I wish there were more ports aside from just two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, but that can be easily fixed with a USB-C hub.
The MacBook Air M4 also boasts impressive battery life lasting nearly 15 hours before needing a recharge. That's more than enough for work, home, or school. Meanwhile, the 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display offers plenty of brightness and is gorgeous for watching shows.
There's no telling how long this deal will last or how much stock is available. So if you're looking for an affordable Mac for the new school semester, this will be the deal to beat.
