Rumors of Apple’s entry into the affordable laptop market were accurate, they just took years to come true. March 4, 2026, saw Apple launch a laptop at the impossibly low price of just $599. Or $100 less, if you’re buying as a student or teacher.
Apple is more accustomed to the other end of the market. The one where a $1,100 MacBook Air is considered a good value and a MacBook Pro is just the cost of doing business.
