Hurry! M4 MacBook Air is now $200 off — starting at the all-time lowest price of $799
And right now, the latest 13-inch and 15-inch Airs are both $200 off at Amazon — dropping their prices down to all-time lows at $799 and $999, respectively. This is a bona fide power pick, no doubt about it!
The new MacBook Air is powered by Apple's latest M4 chipset. The new Mac upgrades the camera from 1080p to 12MP with Center Stage support. The M4 chipset also supports dual external monitors, even when you have the laptop's lid open. It packs a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display (2560 x 1664), Apple's M4 CPU w/ 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. In our MacBook Air M4 review, we said the Editor's Choice laptop is irresistible thanks to its speedy performance, sharper camera, and lower starting price.
Prefer a bigger screen? The 15-inch model is also on sale. It packs a 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display (2880 x 1864), Apple's M4 CPU w/ 10-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD.
Here are some more power picks for my fellow nerds looking for a banger of a deal!
Whenever I review laptops here at Tom's Guide (and I review a lot of 'em), I want them to hit my own personal perfect trifecta — the three Ps.
Of course, a lot more goes into them with our lab testing and many more granular details about each one, but this kind of summarizes it all into three buckets. Every other laptop manages to do well in one or two of these buckets, while compromising a little on the others.
The M4 MacBook Air is a rare gem that manages to nail all three. That M4 chip performs well beyond this price bracket, with processing speeds that put even laptops double the price of this to shame, alongside the 16GB of unified memory for zippy multitasking, and a battery life of at least 14 hours and 50 minutes in our own testing!
And the Cupertino crew has been able to do this in that impressively thin, premium aluminum shell that, yes, may be getting a little old now after years of looking identical — but has a gorgeous utilitarian aesthetic nonetheless. And that thinness doesn't compromise the ergonomics of that great keyboard, touchpad and the vividly bright Liquid Retina display up top.
Then the price. I'd still be recommending it at the full cost of $999, but for $799, this is insane. This puts the air in the perfect price bracket for everyone — people looking for a new personal system, students looking for something to zip through their workloads, even creative enthusiasts, given the GPU munches through the likes of CapCut and Final Cut Pro like it's nothing.
I know I'm getting excited here writing about this, but come on. $200 off the latest MacBook? This is a rarity!

For starters, our choice for the the best budget TV has just become even better value for money. You can currently get the TCL 75-inch QM6K 4K Mini-LED TV on sale for $799 at Amazon. This is $200 off and the lowest price I've seen for the TV in this size. Its super-sharp picture, brightness and Google TV OS make it an excellent buy at this price!

This TV makes everything from movies to video games look stunning and it's now on sale for a massive $1,000 off. Check out all my favorite TV deals below. For more savings, see our Amazon promo codes coverage and the Crocs deals I'd shop from $5. The TCL QM6K is the perfect deal for a display upgrade. It offers a VRR feature that can push the TV refresh rate to 288Hz and leverages Dolby Vision IQ for sophisticated HDR support. It's a great TV for gamers and comes in a wide range of sizes at incredible prices. We gave it an excellent 4-star rating in our TCL QM6K Mini-LED TV review. The Hisense U8QG Mini-LED TV is one of the brightest TVs we've ever tested, but that's not the only trick up its sleeve. The U8QG is also packed with features for gaming and beyond. And, if you're an A/V enthusiast who values picture accuracy, you're sure to appreciate how well-tuned the U8QG is right out of the box. This is Amazon's first Mini-LED TV. It features a 144Hz refresh rate in tandem with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support to give gamers ample juice for fast-paced games. The TV also has an Ambient Experience feature, so when it's powered off it displays dynamic artwork. This is also the first Amazon Fire TV to support Dolby Atmos audio. Part of LG's 2025 TV lineup, the LG C5 OLED is here as the value pick of the year. Offering a slew of features, like a range of HDR certifications and gaming specs for the PS5 Pro crowd, the C5 proves a major improvement over its predecessor. We called it "nearly flawless" and gave it a 5-star rating in our LG C5 OLED TV review. The Z95 is Panasonic's new premium OLED TV. In our Panasonic Z95 OLED TV review, we called the Editor's Choice TV an utter beast with some of the most advanced features of any TV available right now. It's built on LG Display's second-gen MLA panel, which ensures it vast and vibrant brightness potential. It also comes equipped with a 144Hz refresh rate and a slew of gaming features such as HDMI 2.1, VRR, AMD FreeSync Premium, and NVIDIA G-Sync support. It also supports all HDR formats and comes with hands-free Alexa compatibility.

Boost your productivity with the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max — get it at $500 off!
For Apple fans who have been waiting for the brand to appear with discounts from desktop computer deals, here's your chance — the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max with a 512GB SSD is on sale from Best Buy with a $500 discount. It's down from $1,799 to $1,299, which is still pretty expensive but actually a great price for this device. You need to hurry with your purchase though, as there's no telling how much longer stocks will last for this offer. Why you should buy the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max The Apple Mac Studio M2 Max, released in 2023, has already been followed by the Apple Mac Studio M4 Max, which was rolled out earlier this year. The Apple Mac Studio M2 Max is far from obsolete though, as it's still a powerful computer with Apple's M2 Max chip, 30-core GPU, and 32GB of RAM. It's going to be more than enough for graphics-intensive tasks, and it will prove to be an extremely valuable tool to boost your productivity. You'll be able to connect up to five external displays to the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max, which features a healthy collection of ports with four Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, an HDMI port, and a 10Gb Ethernet port. It even comes with an SDXC card slot and a headphone jack. However, despite all its capabilities, the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max is very compact, measuring just 7.7 inches for its length and width with a height of 3.7 inches. If you don't want any clutter on your workstation, this is the mini computer that you should get. The Apple Mac Studio M2 Max may not be the latest model of the mini desktop computer, but it still packs a punch by today's standards. It's also a tempting purchase right now from Best Buy, where you can purchase its 512GB SSD model for $1,299 instead of $1,799. We're not sure how long you've got to take advantage of the savings of $500, but you should act fast because Apple deals almost always sell out quickly. Stocks of the Apple Mac Studio M2 Max may be gone as soon as tomorrow, so finalize your transaction immediately if you're interested.
