When we tested the MacBook Air 2020 earlier on in the year, we were suitably impressed by its elegant design and powerful speakers, among a host of other features. 

But the most significant upgrade was the move to the new scissor key mechanism that sees the rather crappy Butterfly mechanism keyboard get replaced by the Magic Keyboard. It provides better key travel and a design that’s set to be more durable than those of the older MacBook laptops. 

Other highlights include a vivid Retina Display, dual Thunderbolt 3 ports and powerful speakers. 

We consider the latest MacBook Air to be very worthy of a spot on our best laptops list. And with $150 off, it’s an even more attractive machine.
