This is a brand-new Apple MacBook Air—not refurbished. To be clear, it is a 2017 model. But it’s still in the original box with the original packaging. And for this price, it’s worth every penny.

This MacBook Air sports a 1.8 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 Processor with Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz, an Intel HD Graphics 6000 card, two USB 3 ports, a Thunderbolt 2 port, and a SDXC card slot. It features a LED-backlit glossy widescreen display with sparkling 1440-by-900 resolution and wide 16:10 aspect ratio. All that, and it’s less than an inch thick and weighs under three pounds.

To buy this unit new from Apple, you’d likely pay twice this much. Sure, it’s a couple years old—but it’s never been used and is still in the original box. If you want a laptop on sale this Black Friday, you’re getting a great deal on a brand-new MacBook without the added cost of buying direct from Cupertino, or waiting in long lines at your local Apple Store.

So if you’ve got a student or business traveler on your holiday shopping list, pick up this brand-new, 13-inch Apple MacBook Air laptop on sale for Black Friday. It’ll set you back just $699. That’s $300 less than retail— and about half of what you’d pay at Apple.

If you’re looking for a laptop as a gift this holiday season, look no further.
