Sky has dropped the price of the Apple MacBook Air to £20 a month – perfect for those who want to spread the cost
As students gear up to return to university, it’s the perfect time to consider investing in a new laptop for both work and leisure.
Sky is offering an enticing deal on the Apple MacBook Air, allowing customers to spread the cost rather than paying the full £999 upfront. The device is available for £20 per month with a nominal upfront fee of £2, marking the lowest price ever after a drop from £22 per month.
Over the course of the 48-month contract, buyers will pay a total of £962, which is slightly less than the recommended retail price (RRP) of the 13-inch MacBook Air if purchased outright – an ideal option for students looking to distribute the cost.
Sky gives the opportunity for customers to switch their device after 36 months. The laptop is also available in a range of colours, including Midnight, Silver, Starlight and Sky Blue.
The Apple MacBook Air is widely recognised as one of the top laptops currently available and is particularly suited to iOS users. Especially for those who are looking for a powerful, all-in-one solution.
Grab the MacBook Air with the M4 chip for £20 a month
Sky is handing out the newest MacBook Air from Sky for £20 a month with a £2 upfront cost. For Apple diehards, it might be a way to upgrade without needing to empty the bank
It features Apple’s M4 chip, which ensures a smooth performance and boasts up to 18 hours of battery life. It also has built-in Apple Intelligence for effortless task completion, reports the Daily Record.
Additionally, it comes with a large 13-inch Liquid Retina display with vibrant colours – ideal for watching videos and light gaming. The device also incorporates Touch ID for quick and easy access.
For those looking for other alternatives, there’s plenty to choose from. Currys is currently offering the ACER Aspire Go 14 for £399, which is considerably cheaper than the MacBook but has great reviews from shoppers. There’s also the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 for £279 from Argos, also with great reviews, and it comes with a year of Microsoft 365 Personal.
The MacBook Air has been met with high praise from customers. One buyer commented: “Phenomenal laptop with much more power than I need.
“This is my first Apple laptop and without a doubt the best laptop I’ve ever owned. I’ve been in the Apple ecosystem for several years, but never considered the MacBook Air.”
Another customer shared: “The new m4 MacBook Air is truly a powerhouse, just about anything you throw at it, it’ll handle with ease. For such a thin computer, and this thing is thin. It never overheats, is never loud, and is as portable as your personal mobile device.”
However, they did note one downside to the device. They added: “The only drawback is the lack of available ports, but I suppose that’s the sacrifice you make for the compact and discreet design.”
