Shoppers should note that many sales during Amazon Prime Day require you to have an Amazon Prime membership to take advantage of the discounts. Amazon Prime costs $14.99 per month or $139.00 per year, and it comes with a 30-day free trial for new subscribers.

Special for 2026, Amazon is also offering 50% off Prime memberships for Young Adults. Prime for Young Adults is a discounted Prime membership for anyone age 18-24 that offers all of the Prime benefits at $69.00 per year, half of the price of regular Prime.

This $150 off is nothing special. It's the usual discount. It's a PRIME DAY nothingburger.

and the 13' air is definitely worlds better than the neo and worth the extra $400?
It really is: better-quality screen, backlit keyboard, touch ID as standard, full-speed USB-C ports and not a crippled USB 2.0 port, and then there’s MagSafe plus a significantly faster CPU/GPU and 16GB RAM minimum.

It’s definitely worth the extra price

My 13" M4 Air is an incredible computer. If anyone is on the fence about a new Air, do it - you won't regret it!

I don't presume to speak for others, but for me absolutely. No comparison.
