Our latest roundup of the best tech deals from around the web includes a nice discount on Apple&#8217;s latest M2-based MacBook Air in both the 256GB and 512GB versions.  With $100 and $150 discounts, respectively, these are the lowest prices we&#8217;ve tracked on the new MacBook Airs.<\/p>\n<p>In our review, we noted the MacBook Air&#8217;s excellent hardware, build quality, battery life, and &#8220;out-of-this-world performance&#8221; for its size and weight.  Going with an M2-based Air doesn&#8217;t only mean better computing performance over the M1 MacBook Airs, but also an improved screen and a much nicer camera and audio system for video calls.<\/p>\n<p>We also have a record low price on Sony&#8217;s A80K 55-inch 4K television with Google TV.  This is a deal exclusive to Prime members that knocks off $200 from its usual price.  The A80K is well-reviewed for its punchy, wide-ranging contrast ratio, HDR performance, wide viewing angles, and excellent reflection handling.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere around the web, we&#8217;re seeing discounts on Google&#8217;s Nest Hub (my favorite bedside gadget), Microsoft&#8217;s Surface Laptop Studio, Sony&#8217;s WF-1000XM3 earbuds, and a $100 DoorDash gift card deal that rewards you with a $20 Best Buy gift card with purchase, a few Hynix SSDs, and much more.
