However, we spotted quite a compelling offer at B&#038;H this morning on a configuration you can\u2019t buy from Amazon at $219 off the list price from Apple.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-1206515\"\/><\/p>\n<p>B&#038;H is now offering the 15-inch M5 MacBook Air with 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD down at <strong>$1,299 shipped<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is a regularly $1,499 machine in a setup you will not find on Amazon and your usual official retailers \u2013 the most affordable 15-inch 24GB model Amazon sells has 1TB of storage and a $1,699 list price. It is, however, on sale for <strong>$1,549<\/strong> right now and does have double the storage as the B&#038;H offer above, but still quite a bit more expensive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>13-inch M5 MacBook Air 16GB\/512GB from\u00a0<strong>$950<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,099)<\/li>\n<li>13-inch M5 MacBook Air 16GB\/1TB from\u00a0<strong>$1,149<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,299)<\/li>\n<li>13-inch M5 MacBook Air 24GB\/1TB from\u00a0<strong>$1,349<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,499)<\/li>\n<li>15-inch M5 MacBook Air 16GB\/512GB from\u00a0<strong>$1,149<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,299)<\/li>\n<li>15-inch M5 MacBook Air 16GB\/1TB from\u00a0<strong>$1,349<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,499)<\/li>\n<li>15-inch M5 MacBook Air 24GB\/1TB from\u00a0<strong>$1,549<\/strong>\u00a0(Reg. $1,699)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Today\u2019s deal is $400 under the list price on the only 24GB machine Amazon sells, $250 under the sale price on that model, and the best we can find.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s an another thing to consider, this B&#038;H bundle ships with the Apple 35W Dual USB-C Port Compact Power Adapter, not the 40W model that comes in the box standard elsewhere. So while it is a slightly slower charging speed, it delivers two USB-C charging ports for your other gear and an option Apple will charge you an extra $20 for \u2013 today\u2019s deal is actually $219 off:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"530\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?w=1024\" alt=\"A white square power adapter\" class=\"wp-image-1206517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png 2906w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=155,80 155w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=655,339 655w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=768,397 768w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=1024,530 1024w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=1536,795 1536w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=2048,1060 2048w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=350,181 350w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=140,72 140w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=1600,828 1600w, https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/04\/M5-MacBook-Air-with-35W-Dual-USB-C-Port-Compact-Power-Adapter-.png?resize=150,78 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>These are, over the last generation or two, the sorts of deals where B&#038;H really shines.
