Terms of the previous offer
- The previous new £979 offer is no longer available; the current £882.51 buy box is used Very Good stock and not an equivalent replacement.
- 256GB SSD is the main specification compromise; choose 512GB if you keep large photo/video libraries or many local apps/files.
- John Lewis listed the same core 15-inch M4 / 16GB / 256GB specification from £1,099, but retailer service and warranty terms can differ.
Why the previous offer stood out
- £979 was a useful public UK price for a new 15in M4 MacBook Air with 16GB unified memory.
- Amazon showed £1,099 as the reference price, so the previous offer was a meaningful saving without trade-in or restricted eligibility.
- The 15.3in Liquid Retina screen, fanless design and up-to-18-hour battery life make it a strong lightweight everyday Mac if 256GB storage is enough.

Condition, warranty and price evidence
- Condition
- Used - Very Good current offer; previous deal was New
- Warranty
- The previous new offer was expected to carry Apple’s standard limited warranty. The currently visible used Amazon Resale path has different condition, returns and warranty considerations and is not recommended here as an equivalent replacement.
- Eligibility
- The previous £979 price was for a new Sky Blue 16GB/256GB offer. Amazon no longer showed that offer on 17 July; the current buy box was a different used Very Good Starlight path, so do not treat it as the same deal.
- Recorded availability
- Rechecked on 2026-07-17: Amazon selected the Starlight variant and showed only a used Very Good buy box at £882.51, sold by Amazon Resale, fulfilled by Amazon and with one left. The previous new £979 Sky Blue offer was no longer available.
