The MacBook Air is ultra-portable at just 2.7 pounds. (Amazon)(Amazon)
Whether you're the proud owner of an aging Mac or a curious PC user looking to make the switch, right now is a great time to upgrade your laptop. The 2022 MacBook Air with 16GB RAM can be yours for just $800 — $199 off at Amazon. Stream shows, video chat with friends and catch up on emails easily with this Apple powerhouse.
The latest smartwatch from the Cupertino company features a larger display while somehow being thinner and lighter, advanced health and fitness features and a faster-charging battery.
Said one five-star reviewer, "The battery life is phenomenal, I can literally go 2 days without charging. When I do have to charge it, it’s full in about 30 [minutes]."
Apple's AirTag is one of the most powerful trackers you can get as an iPhone user. Simply connect it to your phone and use it to keep track of what matters — luggage, a purse, an expensive bike. You can also activate Lost Mode, which makes it play a loud sound. Grab this four-pack to put one in each family member's suitcase the next time you travel.
"I recently purchased an Apple AirTag, and I have to say, it's a game-changer for someone like me who tends to misplace things," said one user. "Setting it up was a breeze — just a few taps on my iPhone, and it was ready to go. The precision finding feature is fantastic; it leads you right to your lost item with directions and haptic feedback, which feels like magic. I've attached one to my keychain and slipped another into my backpack, and so far, they've saved me a ton of time and frustration."
Never fight with your family over outlets again. This electrifying gadget boasts five AC outlets and four USB ports, enough for everyone to charge their devices all at once. Oh, and it's much sleeker than having a power strip on your floor.
Ready for some Apple picking? Yes, we realize it's not fall, but you'll want to pluck this bad boy from the ol' Amazon tree and add it to your cart because it's currently down to its all-time lowest price — and this is the most recent version of this model!
As the unofficial Goldilocks of tech (less bulky than a laptop but larger than a smartphone), this tablet keeps you connected on the go or at home, and you can use it for everything from reading books to taking notes to watching videos.
Our tech editor named this the "best tablet for 2024" owing to its "under-the-hood improvements, including a faster processor, more RAM (4GB instead of 3GB), Bluetooth 5.0 (up from 4.2) and a USB-C charging port."

Hear ye, hear ye! Sales on Apple laptops are rare, but we've got a sweet one for ya. This 2022 MacBook Air is currently sitting pretty at a record-low price. It's selling fast, so don't be surprised if the stock runs out before everyone that wants one of these is able to click "Buy now." More than 2,300 people have left a five-star rating on this beauty, and for good reason.
One fan shared, "I love how fast it is, very snappy, and the specs are perfect for my heavy home office use. Setup was a breeze from an iCloud backup."
Not quite what you're looking for? We've rounded up the top laptops of 2024 to help you find exactly what you're looking for.
This model, powered by Apple's ultra-fast M3 chip, was released just last year, so I'm surprised to find it on sale — especially at a $219 discount. It's only dipped lower than this once (over the holidays), and seeing as it's also one of the thinnest and lightest laptops you'll find, can you really go wrong?
Have a Wi-Fi "dead zone" in your house? This Wi-Fi extender boosts network signal strength. Plug it into a wall outlet where Wi-Fi strength is low, connect it to your network and presto: instant signal boost. This extender also has an Ethernet port, meaning you can plug in devices that might benefit from a wired connection: Blu-ray player, game console, etc.
Sales on Apple products are hit and miss (often more miss), but this MacBook is a surprising $199 off when you add the on-page coupon, marking one of the lowest prices we've seen. Since it's a 2022 model, stock is limited — so when it's gone, it's gone. At $800, you're paying $90 less than you would for the 8GB RAM model, but with double the memory, Apple’s lightning-fast M2 chip, a lightweight design and a battery that lasts for days. Remember: You can always buy an external hard drive, you can't buy external RAM.
When it comes to high-performance laptops, there's a reason the MacBook Air is always in the conversation. In addition to some truly impressive specs, it comes with a Liquid Retina Display that makes everything — text, colors, video — remarkably clear, crisp and vibrant. This model has a 13.6-inch screen, but there are larger options if you need more space.
There's a front-facing camera for video calls and meetings that captures content in 1080p resolution — that's high-def. If you have an iPhone or iPad, all three devices are designed to work together seamlessly. Transfer content from one to the other easily, or open a webpage on your laptop and keep reading on your phone when you leave the house.
This MacBook Air gets up to 18 hours of battery life on a single charge, and at only 2.7 pounds, it's easy to grab and go. Apple's M2 chip is particularly efficient, giving this computer some of the best staying power of any Apple device.
Over 800 reviews have awarded this model five stars — not unexpected for a MacBook.
"I've only ever used Windows," said this convert. "I was nervous to get a Mac because I know it's a bit different than Windows, but I don't regret getting a Mac at all. ... I was overwhelmed because it was so different and I didn't know where certain things were, but after a few Google searches and some videos, I was able to get Mac down and I'm in love. I think if you have an iPhone, I would absolutely recommend buying this. It's so nice to be able to access most of the information on my phone from my laptop now."
"I did a massive amount of research on what I would need in a computer," said another buyer. "I mostly use one for Word, Excel and financial documents. I needed a computer that would be in my budget, would be fast and effective, but also would meet all of my needs for maintaining my household and doing different projects for work and school. This has fit the bill beautifully. It runs well, has an amazing screen and picture, and is so much faster than my previous one!"
"The perfect MacBook Air," declared a fan. "No need to get an M3 processor when the M2 is fully capable of virtually all tasks, including scientific calculations. By choosing the M2 versus the new M3 version, you save hundreds of dollars with virtually no loss in performance. The screen is clear and realistic, and you can watch a movie on it without compromise."
Of course, even MacBooks aren't perfect. "This laptop is much more powerful, light, sleek and the keyboard is great," wrote another shopper. "My only gripe is that, when closed, the lid is slightly not lining up with the base. It is off very slightly."
"Runs flawlessly and barely gets hot," said this final buyer. "The MacBook is pretty quick to load and the battery life is amazing! The Midnight color is beautiful, but just know that it is a fingerprint magnet. The sound quality is pretty good, I wish they would have kept the speaker grills next to the keyboard though."
