Loyal MacBook Air users, rejoice. The days of watching your beloved laptop collect dust while waiting years for an upgrade are over. Remember when Apple let the Air sit with the same design and outdated chips for what felt like forever? That’s history since the beginning of the Apple silicon era. Now, every year, we have a new MacBook Air with a new brain, and this season, we got this: The MacBook Air with M4 Chip.
Let’s start with the headliner—the M4 chip. It’s faster, smarter, and lets you breeze through spreadsheets, Photoshop, and even video editing without breaking a sweat. Battery life is still an impressive 18 hours, and for the first time, the MacBook Air supports two external displays. That’s right, no more awkward workarounds just to get dual monitors.
Then there’s the new 12 MP Center Stage camera. Finally, video calls won’t make you look like a pixelated ghost. And if you’ve ever wanted a laptop that matches the sky, Apple’s got you covered with a new sky blue finish. It joins midnight, starlight, and silver, all with color-matched MagSafe cables.
And here’s the kicker: Apple dropped the price. The 13-inch MacBook Air with M4 starts at US$999, down from US$1,099, while the 15-inch model starts at US$1,199. For students, it’s even cheaper.
