Just barely a day after the announcement of the M3-powered iPad Air, Apple unveiled its next exciting product — the all-new affordable MacBook Air featuring a gorgeous new metallic light blue, 18 hours of battery life, and a blazing-fast performance, thanks to the M4 chip.
Next Level Performance
Equipped with the M4 chip, you can expect everything you do on the MacBook Air to get faster and more fluid.
Featuring a powerful 10-core CPU, an up to 10-core GPU, and support for up to 32GB of unified memory, this new generation is up to 2x faster than the M1 model, and offers up to 23x faster performance than the fastest intel-based MacBook Air.
The powerful Neural Engine in the M4 chip doesn’t just help to accelerate AI-based tasks, but is also up to 3x faster than on the MacBook Air with M1. This means that you’ll get to experience significantly increased speed in photo and video editing, web browsing, and even spreadsheet calculation on Microsoft Excel!
Camera-Ready 24/7
Need to go on zoom for meetings or classes? You can now always be camera-ready with the new 12MP Centre Stage camera and its improved video quality.
Centre Stage automatically keeps you centred in the frame while you move around, and also supports Desk View, which simultaneously shows you alongside a top-down view of your desk to help make video calls more engaging, especially when you need to present a prototype at work or just want to show off your latest DIY project.
Enhanced Display Support
Easily power a multi-display setup with the new MacBook Air to make viewing and interacting with content a breeze. You can now spread your work out with the support of up to two 6K external displays, in addition to the built-in Liquid Retina display on the MacBook Air.
Apple Intelligence and macOS Sequoia
Similar to the newer models of Apple devices, you can also unlock exciting new Apple Intelligence capabilities with the MacBook Air. These include Image Playground, Genmoji, more intuitive Writing Tools, and seamless access to ChatGPT.
What completes your new MacBook Air experience is macOS Sequoia and its host of exciting features that includes iPhone Mirroring, which allows you to wirelessly interact with your iPhone, its apps, and notifications directly from your MacBook Air.
The macOS also makes gaming even more immersive with Personalised Spatial Audio and improvements to Game Mode.
An update to macOS Sequoia 15.4 next month will help make it easier for you to set up your new MacBook Air with an iPhone. All you’ll need to do is bring your iPhone close to your new MacBook Air and gain quick access to your Apple Account.
