MacBook Air 15" Laptop - M2 chip - 16GB Memory - 512GB are on sale at Best Buy for $1399 right now. My 2017 MBP is still working so the purchase isn’t urgent, however, it is pretty slow. Am I better off waiting to buy it refurbished or is this about the best price I’ll see? I have Best Buy total tech so that price includes two years of Apple care.

I have this machine and it’s sick. Zero regrets. If you already have the best buy totsl membership it kinda makes sense to take advantage of it with a new machine, whereas it doesnt do squat for your current one.

Refurb pros at similar price have smaller screens they’re already years old. The mba 15 is a masterpiece and with these specs most users will be really happy. People who need a pro model based on usage already know they need it. If that’s you then get another to replace your aging one or just use it until its no longer usable.
