Description
The Apple 13″ MacBook Air features Apple’s first chip designed specifically for Mac. The Apple M1 integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and more into a single system on a chip (SoC). Tackle your projects with the fast 8-Core CPU and take on graphics-intensive apps and games with the 7-core GPU. Accelerate machine learning tasks with the 16-core Neural Engine. Complete with a silent, fanless design and up to 18 hours of battery life, the MacBook Air is still portable, but now a lot more powerful. It also has 8GB of unified RAM and a 256GB SSD.
With over 4 million pixels, the 13.3″ Retina Display features a 2560 x 1600 screen resolution and a 16:10 aspect ratio for 227 pixels per inch (ppi). The display also features up to 48 percent more color than the previous generation. With True Tone technology, the white balance automatically adjusts to match the color temperature of the light around you for a more natural viewing experience.
Connect to the internet via Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and use compatible wireless peripherals and accessories with Bluetooth 5.0. The two Thunderbolt 3 ports provide USB4 support and can even connect to the Apple Pro Display XDR in full 6K resolution. Apple also included studio-quality mics for clear recordings and calls. There is also Apple’s latest camera ISP in the M1 chip, which enables sharper images and more details in shadows and highlights in video calls. Keep your MacBook Air secure with Secure Enclave in M1 as well as Touch ID. The Touch Bar allows for shortcuts, the backlit Magic Keyboard provides a comfortable typing experience, and the Force Touch trackpad allows for precise cursor control, pressure-sensing capabilities, and Multi-Touch gestures.
Please note that this MacBook Air can only output to a single external display with up to 6K resolution at 60 Hz.
This Mac comes preloaded with macOS. Updates can be downloaded for free via the Mac App Store. Please check Apple’s website for upgrade eligibility.

The MacBook Air M1 is a perfect machine to replace a 2013 iMac that decided to stop working. The only drawback is the fact of allowing only one external monitor, but it could be circumvented by using a spaghetti plethora of dongles…
Anastasia Harris (verified owner) –
I bought this for my wife to replace her 2015 Macbook Air. Insane battery life for a laptop! The M1 chip seems to be super efficient as well as being very powerful. She has had no complaints about it so far!

Powers my 4k monitor! Speakers are significantly better than my old air. Display resolution is also much sharper than before.

I use it for general purposes in my house . This is my best purchase ever done from B&H and Apple it just amazed me how fast it is and doesn’t heat etc I sold my desktop iMac that I bought custom made here on B&H for $4K and bought this temporary till they come with a 27″ monitor . I recommend this MacbookAir to anyone you will be surprised with what Apple did . This is not paid review by anyone I bought it from my own money.

I have been using my macbook air for last couple of weeks. It has been great so far, no lagging or any display issues. Only thing bothers me is that lack of USB and HDMI connectors, if I need them, I will have to carry extra dock which is the only inconvinence.
Arjun Schimmel (verified owner) –
Got this as a Christmas gift for my girlfriend and was so excited to see the look on her face that I gave it to her early. She’s told me it’s ten times lighter than her old MacBook & runs super smoothly I would definitely recommend

Purchased this MacBook Air for my wife from B&H and everything was delivered as promised.
Delpha Kub (verified owner) –
B&H really delivered! I love my new computer and it arrived within 48 hours of ordering. They have the best prices in the industry. The MacBook is great, even if I needed to purchase an adapter to supplement the 2 thunderbolt 3 ports this model has — insufficient for connecting my external hard drive and some other accessories. The one thing I don’t like about the computer is that the charging cord is short compared with the 10′ cord of my previous Pro. Wouldn’t be an issue for most users but I’m in an older home with few outlets and they aren’t super accessible to sit close to.

Perfect computer for teenager.

Betty Schultz (verified owner) –
Very fast and refined experience, for normal use the battery life is really impressive. Switched to Mac after being lifelong windows user
Keagan Jaskolski (verified owner) –
No issues. It’s a Mac. It works.
Ezequiel Bahringer (verified owner) –
The size and weight of this computer are perfect for home schooling your kids as well as traveling on planes or watching videos in the car, etc… And this is more than powerful enough to edit photos or videos as well.
Jana Rohan (verified owner) –
Best buy I’ve ever do!!! Thanks B&H for this Mac
Steve Douglas (verified owner) –
The delivery was very fast so that I can get the MacBook within one week.
Daisha Kassulke (verified owner) –
I have always had a desktop computer and was a bit skeptical about switching to a small laptop computer. However, it came within 3-5 days, perfectly packaged and was simple to set up with my pictures, contacts and documents from the cloud.
Kylee Feeney (verified owner) –
Easily the best laptop I’ve owned, and it’s not even close. Outperforms my $2,700 Dell. I loaded multiple large media files into Adobe Premiere Pro and immediately scrubbed through the whole project. After about 10 hours in Premiere so far, absolutely no issues with lag or rendering. All that with no fan? Amazing.
