Apple MacBook Air news stories

I expected the M1-powered MacBook Air to be better than the Intel one, but I did not expect to notice it this much. 

All three products will be shipped with the new M1 chip, which Apple touts as ‘the most powerful chip’ it has ever made. All of the new Macs will also feature the updated macOS, Big Sur.

Every year Apple improves on this beloved product and tweaks it to make it even better, and 2020 was no different. 

Apple has focused on improving CPU and graphics performance, a new Magic Keyboard, doubled storage capacity, and a new microphone system, amongst other features.

Barely two months since its last spruce-up, Apple is giving the MacBook Pro yet another update – while the MacBook Air has also had an upgrade.

The 2018 MacBook Air looks completely different from its predecessor. They managed to capture the essence of what made the Air special, and then they took all of that and made it more compact.

Apple’s unstoppable juggernaut of product updates are set to roll out into stores next week – this time it’s the Mac mini and the MacBook Air that received the full makeover treatment.

The rumours say a lower-cost MacBook Air will launch in Q3 2012 for US $799, which will aggressively combat Intel's lineup of Ultrabooks.
