{"post":{"id":679,"title":"M5 MacBook Air is $1,099 in early Black Friday deals: buy now, or wait for the real Black Friday week?","body":"The 13-inch M5 MacBook Air with 16GB and 512GB is down to $1,099 at Amazon right now, $250 off the $1,299 list, as part of the early Black Friday deals. I need a laptop for writing, coding, and light photo work, and this is the exact config I would buy. My worry is the usual one: is $1,099 the floor, or does it drop further during Black Friday week? And if I wait, does the popular config sell out? Has anyone tracked how the Air usually prices through November?","community":"Computers","score":1,"answer_count":1,"standing":{"kind":"leading","answer_votes":1,"leading":{"id":839,"name":"Buy it now if it is the exact config you want","score":1},"runner_up":null},"author":{"username":"dandev","verified":false},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-11-08T14:11:37.245Z","url":"https://settd.com/p/679","thumbnail":null},"comments":[{"id":839,"name":"Buy it now if it is the exact config you want","body":"$1,099 is $250 off list, and the M4 Air bottomed out around $999 to $1,099 last November and the popular 16GB/512GB config sold out before Black Friday week even started. The M5 at $1,099 is already in that same band, so the realistic extra saving from waiting is $0 to $50, against a real chance your config is gone. Buy it now, and check the return window covers November 27 so you can rebuy if it does drop further.","score":1,"rank_score":1,"author":{"username":"priyaq","verified":false},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-11-08T14:17:03.226Z"}],"pagination":{"limit":50,"offset":0,"has_more":false,"next_offset":null}}
