$150 off<\/span>\/<\/span>From $949<\/span><\/p>\n

Just after seeing Amazon deliver its new all-time low and the very best price we have tracked on the base model 15-inch M5 MacBook Air at $199 off<\/strong>, it is now starting to bring back the deals on the most affordable 13-inch model from $949<\/strong> as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amazon is now offering the 13-inch M5 MacBook Air at $949 shipped<\/strong>. This is the entry point to the new 2026 M5 MacBook Air lineup that carries a $1,099 list price sitting at $150 off what you\u2019ll pay at Apple and elsewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While not all of the color options have dropped back down (yet), we are expecting to see the 13-inch lineup return to all-time low pricing at Amazon between now and Memorial Day proper on Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yesterday we saw it delivering new all-time low pricing on the entry 15-inch model and the very best deal we have tracked there on the new M5 Air lineup at $199 off \u2013 select colors are still live right now at this particularly notable price:<\/p>\n

Whether or not we see Amazon drop the more affordable 13-inch models down into the nearly $200 off range remains to be seen, but it is, at the very least, a little more unlikely than the 15-inchers. The more expensive price tag on the larger model is seemingly giving retailers a little bit more wiggle room for deeper deals \u2013 this has been the case over the last month where we have seen special offers on the 15-inch models from time-to-time that have largely not been available on the 13-inchers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the best deals we have tracked to date on the lineup are returning ahead of Memorial Day weekend, making now a wonderful chance to upgrade to Apple\u2019s latest, most accessible, and likely most suitable M5-powered machine for most folks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
