The Apple MacBook Air 15 has been frequently discounted since it first came out last summer, but the large yet thin laptop has once again reached a new low price. You can get the base configuration of the 15-inch MacBook Air with an M2 chip (eight-core CPU / 10-core GPU), 256GB SSD, and 8GB of RAM for just $999 ($300 off) at Best Buy or Amazon. Best Buy has all four colors, and any of them should arrive before December 25th, while Amazon only has the deal on the starlight color, arriving after the holiday.
While the MacBook Pros have already moved on to Apple’s M3-generation chips, the M2 MacBook Air is no slouch. It’s more than capable for everyday productivity for schoolwork needs or work-work demands. Much like the smaller 13-inch model, it has two Thunderbolt 4 / USB-C ports, MagSafe charging, and a notched display. The 15-incher is also barely any thicker than the 13-inch model, making it seem incredibly thin for its size. The main tradeoff is that it’s about half a pound heavier, but it may be worth carrying the load for the easier multitasking the extra screen real estate affords.
Baldur’s Gate 3 was showered with praise at The Game Awards, earning Game of the Year, among many other accolades. Now, the PlayStation 5 version is on sale for the first time. It’s not a huge discount, mind you, but the digital version of the game can be had for $62.99 ($7 off) on the PlayStation Store — putting it nearly at parity with its standard price on PC via Steam. Considering how some players have poured hundreds of hours into this massive RPG, every dollar saved makes it an even better value proposition. Also, if you want to min-max your savings a bit further (and have other digital PlayStation games on your wish list), you can buy the game using a $100 PlayStation Store gift card that Eneba is selling for $87.99 (after fees) when you use code XmasPSN until 7AM ET on December 27th.
