‘ZDNET Recommends’: What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET’s recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

After a nice holiday break, reality comes back and the workloads start increasing once more. But, the only thing worse than a heavy workload, is a heavy workload on a slow computer. Luckily enough, you can score this 2022 MacBook Air M2 13.6-inch laptop for $999 — a $200 savings that his laptop has only seen once before.

There are seemingly no limits to what you can do with a MacBook, especially with Apple’s next-generation M2 chip. Compatible with all your Apple devices, this MacBook Air allows you to keep up with your text messages, make phone or FaceTime calls, as well as instantly sync your photos so you can view them on a bigger screen.

A 13.6-inch Liquid Retina Display features one billion colors, 500 nits of  brightness, and P3 wide color for vivid colors on movies, games, or even work. But, the picture on your screen isn’t the only thing that will feature excellent clarity. A 1080p FaceTime HD camera sits atop the MacBook Air screen with support from three microphones and four speakers to allow you to make the most of your workplace Zoom calls.
