The M2 really is not worth it at this point, especially if you want multiple displays.

Even if somebody does want the M2, they should still wait for the M4 so the M2 prices go down
It would be worth it to me at this price as i don't use multiple displays, but unfortunately we don't get deals like this in the UK.
I chatted with Best Buy yesterday. They said since the brandsmartusa deal was In-Store only, they would not price match.
Mine said that also; i tried again and mentioned i want for store pickup and the 2nd guy did it
That's the point of this sale. Has there ever been a MacBook Air on sale for less than $699/$749? I don't remember seeing the M1's lower than that when the M2/M3's came out.
I would hesitate to guess on what might happen just because things seem to be different in this area the last couple years.
For all we know, the Walmart relationship might continue and they might start getting the M2 base models to sell at the fire sale levels all the time
Why not just wait a couple weeks and find out?
good point, I was worried about this too, after using it today...for normal person use, it's not noticeable, esp now that the base having 16GB. all that said, I'm spoiled and this is just my 'bed computer', my work machine is an MBP M4 Pro
The brandsmart deal is back in stock for shipping. Contacted Best Buy and they price-matched immediately. I locked in this excellent deal at $699.99 that Sw1tcher told us about, and if it goes even lower after the M4 is introduced, I'll still be within the return period.
