Launched in March of 2024, the M3 MacBook Air has everything you could ever want in a personal computer. We rated it 4.5 out of 5 stars for its capable performance, bright, colorful display, and comfortable keyboard.
In our Laptop Mag Battery Test of continuous web surfing over WiFi with a display brightness of 150 nits of brightness, the M3 MacBook Air tapped out at 15 hours. That’s pretty impressive for an everyday laptop which means you can spend more time getting things done and less time charging.
So if you’re buying a new laptop or checking items off your holiday gift list, the M3 MacBook Air should be on your radar. At $200 off, it’s a sensible choice either way.
