ToggleThe Power of M2 and an Expansive Display
The 15-inch MacBook Air is powered by the M2 chip, which delivers incredible performance and up to 18 hours of battery life. This allows users to work, play, or create just about anything, anywhere.
The laptop also features an expansive 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display, offering a vibrant and sharp viewing experience. The display is twice the resolution and 25 percent brighter than a comparable PC laptop.
World’s Thinnest 15-inch Laptop
The new MacBook Air is not just about power and performance; it also sets a new standard in terms of design and portability. Measuring only 11.5mm thin, it is the world’s thinnest 15-inch laptop. Despite its expansive display, the MacBook Air is incredibly portable, weighing just 3.3 pounds.
Enhanced Connectivity and Stunning Design
The MacBook Air comes with MagSafe charging, two Thunderbolt ports for connecting accessories, and a 3.5mm headphone jack for versatile connectivity. It is available in four gorgeous finishes — midnight, starlight, space gray, and silver.
Unmatched Performance and Battery Life
The M2 chip in the MacBook Air delivers blazing performance, up to 12 times faster than the fastest Intel-based MacBook Air. It also offers extraordinary battery life, up to 18 hours of usage — 50 percent more than on a comparable PC.
Advanced Camera and Sound System
The MacBook Air features a 1080p FaceTime HD camera, perfect for video conferencing. It also boasts a new six-speaker sound system that delivers twice the bass depth for fuller sound and supports Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos for an immersive audio experience.
