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.

Surprised hubby with Air for his 71st bday after years of listening to him cuss out his iPad. Now he cussing out the Air, but at least he’s not borrowing mine anymore.

Exactly what I wanted and shipped on time

The M1 chip makes this a great upgrade over the Air from a year ago. And the Air was already great. I find many trackpads unusable but the Air has a fantastic trackpad.

I moved from a Windows laptop to a MacBook Air. The Air is light for travel but powerful. The M1 processor is a speed demon. It takes some adjusting to master keyboard differences from Windows, but the transition period is rapid.

I’m loving everything about this MBAir. The speed, no fan (runs cool on the lap), runs my Intel apps with no loss of performance…. just a joy to use and own. Great job Apple!!!

This laptop, oh my friend… Beautifully made, fast and made for me. Now I can run apps made for iPhone. Awesome!

Like you, I have been using Macs since the Stone Age. This is the best Mac EVER. Happy Dance. Do not hesitate. Sell the old Intel stuff. Get this. Use a giant wrap monitor (since it only supports one) and your workflow will fly.

Light but very fast laptop. I connected 3 external monitors – 1 directly from USB-C dongle and 2 via Dell D6000 USB-C docking station (DisplayLink) daisy-chained to the dongle. It does not overheat and everything is so fast.

I have had MacBook Air computers from 2010 on. Always new improvements and keeping up with technology. Never a disappointment. This model is new to me. The data transfer from the older model was quick and went smoothly. The additional storage is a huge plus.

This computer crashes daily while working. Almost always just while using microsoft word.

I received the computer in relatively good time, delay in product availability was a bit slow but it made it! It was the best deal on the internet for this computer, and I am quite pleased with my overall experience with B&H.

Spec it out right and treat yourself to an awesome computing experience. I cannot mention enough how awesome it is to have a fanless computer — no noise is game changing! Coming from a 2019 MacBook Pro the difference is very noticeable — this thing cooks and can handle all of my video needs. M1 chip is a game changer.

Everything i wanted and more. Also very quick shipping time

Finally updated my Mid-2015 MacBook Pro 15. I use this for software development and my main concern was 16GB memory ceiling but that hasn’t proved problematic yet. Switching to ARM, there are some development tools missing like VirtualBox and some Homebrew packages but these are fast being back ported or alternatives are available.
