Black Friday deals are already coming in hot with some excellent discounts on MacBooks. Key among them is a sale on the M3 MacBook Air, the machine we consider to be the best laptop for most people and the best laptop for college students.

Amazon has it on sale for just $749 ahead of Black Friday, or $250 off its $999 MSRP. That's a 25% savings and a new record-low, matching the cheapest price the 8GB version saw. (The same deal was live at Best Buy for the paid tiers of its membership program on Thursday, Nov. 14; it'll be open to everyone there on Friday, Nov. 15.)

The 13-inch Apple MacBook Air with M2 chip is part of Best Buy’s Black Friday Doorbusters. As of Nov. 15, you can save $200 while supplies last.

One of our favorite gaming laptops, the Asus ROG Strix G16, is currently 17% off at Walmart for Black Friday. This model features an elegant design, with a customizable backlit keyboard and light strip underneath the trackpad. The modern hardware delivers years’ worth of high-end gameplay, and you can save $300 on the laptop right now.

However, shopping from retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart can often net you more savings — and all of those retailers have started to roll out early Black Friday-worthy deals on Apple products, with their official early Black Friday sales starting weeks ahead of the actual day.

The best Amazon deals on Nov. 14 include the M2 MacBook Air, Sony WH-CH720N headphones, M2 iPad Air, and SodaStream E-Terra.

If you've been looking to get an Apple MacBook Air, today is your lucky day. All the best models are on sale, and prices start at just $749!
