A used M1 Macbook Air is about 29k-35k these days. FB Marketplace is likely the cheapest place to find one (caveat emptor). Brand new old stock sealed M1 Macbook Airs (2020 usually) can be bought for about 36k to 40k these days, Greenhills is a good source but do haggle. Sa FB marketplace meron din yata but you will have to look around for trustworthy sources.

I would be willing to swing up to 31k for a used M1 Air as any price higher than that I would prefer to get the new old stock instead.

Intel Macbook Airs can be had for 15k to 25k depending on the year and condition. Macbook pros are heavier, as you know, so I don't prefer getting one for kids. The intel ones with the touch bar are probably going to be 21k at least.

If budget permits, I would recommend M1's over the Intel variants because these will likely get longer software updates. And the M1's are much much faster too, as you probably know.
