"The perfect laptop needs to do three things well: handle your daily workload without hiccups, last through a full day without hunting for outlets, and stay portable enough to carry anywhere. Since its launch in March, Apple's 2025 MacBook Air with the M4 chip with 256GB storage has been doing a pricing dance on Amazon that's been frustrating to watch. It started at $999, dropped to $849, climbed back up to $899, and now it's finally hit rock bottom at $799 instead of $999."
"The Apple M4 chip is the central processing unit in that laptop and it has a speed rate of 4.4 GHz, along with a 10-core CPU (four performance cores and six efficiency cores). This will allow the performance cores to undertake difficult tasks such as video production and processing complex documents, while the efficiency cores will perform everyday tasks without affecting the battery life."
"Apple has incorporated a 16-core Neural Engine in the M4 which executes a mind-boggling 38 trillion operations every second and nearly double that of the previous M3 chip. This Neural Engine enables Apple Intelligence functionality in the latest macOS version, including the functionality to remove background noise from videos automatically, improve images in a single click and provide system-wide AI support for keeping your data completely private."

An 8-core GPU supports ray tracing, mesh shading and accelerates editing in Final Cut Pro and Adobe Photoshop. A 16-core Neural Engine performs about 38 trillion operations per second, enabling Apple Intelligence features like automatic video noise removal, one-click image improvements, and system-wide AI privacy. The laptop uses a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display and targets desktop-level power in an ultraportable package.
