The MacBook Air M3 sees a price drop in India, making it a great option for those upgrading from M1, while M2 users might wait for the M4 launch in 2025.
The MacBook Air M3 is now available at its lowest-ever price in India, making it an appealing option for those looking to upgrade their laptop. However, with the next-generation MacBook Air featuring the M4 chip expected to launch in early 2025, many are debating whether to buy now or wait. Let’s look closer at the current deal and the factors to consider.
Current Pricing and Deals for MacBook Air M3
The MacBook Air M3, with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, is now priced at Rs 98,606 on Reliance Digital's online store. This is a significant drop from its launch price of Rs 1,14,900, offering a flat discount of Rs 16,294. Additionally, buyers can get an extra Rs 1,000 off with select credit cards, such as those from Bank of Baroda and OneCard. However, this deal is only available for the Space Grey variant.
The 16GB RAM version is also discounted, priced at Rs 1,05,990, making it a more affordable option than its original cost. The discounts suggest Reliance Digital might be clearing stock, especially as Apple has made 16GB RAM the new standard for future MacBook Air models.
Should You Buy the MacBook Air M3 or Wait for M4?
For those currently using a MacBook Air M1, the M3 offers significant performance improvements, making it a worthwhile upgrade. However, if you own the MacBook Air M2, waiting for the M4 model might be a better choice. The M4 is expected to bring AI features and faster speeds, offering a noticeable leap in performance.
Apple’s trend of comparing devices from two generations ago supports this logic. The company often highlights major improvements over older models, so upgrading from M2 to M3 may not feel as significant. But for those with the M1, the M3’s enhanced speed, smooth performance, and long-term software support make it a solid investment.
Why Consider the M3?
The MacBook Air M3 is powered by Apple’s latest chip, delivering improved performance for daily tasks and even basic 4K video editing. It also supports dual external displays, making it ideal for multitaskers, though this requires the laptop lid to be closed. With features like Wi-Fi 6E and up to 24GB of RAM support, the M3 ensures future-proof functionality.
Known for its lightweight design and long battery life of 10–11 hours, the M3 remains a reliable choice for students and office workers who need a portable, durable device. Its vibrant display, excellent photo editing capabilities, and smooth user experience further add to its appeal.
While power users needing heavy 3D rendering or advanced video editing may consider a MacBook Pro, the MacBook Air M3 strikes the right balance for most users. With durable build quality and long-term software updates, it is a smart buy for those looking for a dependable and high-performing laptop.
