Impossibly thin.
The 15‑inch MacBook Air makes room for more of what you love with a spacious Liquid Retina display. And with the 13‑inch model, you have more reasons
than ever to choose Air. Supercharged by the M2 chip and with up to 18 hours of battery life¹ both laptops deliver blazing-fast performance in an ultraportable
design.
Design
Your choice. Your Air
MacBook Air is all you, pick your size, pick your color, then go. Whichever model you choose, it’s built with the planet in mind, with a durable 100 percent
recycled aluminum enclosure. And a fanless design means it stays silent even under intense workloads
Two perfect sizes
Whether you pick the 13- or 15‑inch laptop, both models are superlight and measure just under half an inch thin, so you can take yours anywhere.
Four stellar colors.
Four options are out of this world and each one comes with a matching MagSafe charging cable.
Perfomance
Incredible speed and battery life
The M2 chip brings more speed to everything you do — whether you’re editing a video for class, collaborating on a business plan, or streaming a show while
you shop online. And with all-day battery life, you can leave the power adapter at home.
Compared to a PC laptop with an Intel Core i7 processor, MacBook Air delivers up to 2x faster performance, up to 50 percent faster web browsing, and up
to 50 percent longer battery life.
Display, Camera & Audio
The Liquid Retina display on MacBook Air is a sight to behold, with support for 1 billion colors and up to 2x the resolution of comparable PC laptops. Photos and
videos pop with rich contrast and sharp detail, and text appears supercrisp for easy reading.
High-definition camera.
Look your best with the 1080p FaceTime HD camera, whether you’re catching up with friends and family or collaborating with coworkers around the globe
Immersive sound system.
The speakers on MacBook Air support Spatial Audio along with Dolby Atmos, so you can enjoy three-dimensional soundstages for music and movies.
Magic Keyboard with Touch ID
The comfortable and quiet backlit Magic Keyboard comes with full-height function keys and Touch ID, which gives you a fast, easy, and secure way to unlock
your Mac and sign in to apps and sites — all at the touch of a finger.
Connectivity
The MagSafe charging cable easily attaches and detaches with magnets, preventing any unintended flights. Two Thunderbolt ports let you connect high-speed
accessories and charge your Mac. You can also connect up to a 6K display. And the headphone jack supports high‑impedance headphones.
