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.

I replace a fully functional and awesome 2008 MacBook with this Airmac. Its a great computer and fast, but the display failed at 18 months. Geez.

Granted, I’m coming from an 8 year old MacBook Pro, but this computer is incredibly fast, and has much more pleasing haptics, with a much smoother and quieter keyboard.

Upgrading from a MacBook Pro Retina, 8GB, I couldn’t be happier with this MacBook Air. While I’ve always had issues with running out of memory on my MBP, I’ve not had any similar issues with this MBA even with multiple Chrome browser tabs open. The laptop is small, light, and having always owned a silver MacBook device, the Gold color is a breath of fresh air.

Great website

This wasn’t my first time ordering from B&H – I’ve always had a great experience – great prices, availability, and shipping. The Mac M1 is awesome and exceeded my expectations. Quite a jump from the 2013 MBP!

To be honest, all the reviews seemed too good to be true, but the new MBA does live up to its hype. I would point out 4 aspects that surprised me: 1. battery life is amazing. Sometimes you forget when was the last time it needed to be plugged 2. power is impressive, but in a different way. It does not feel super fast, but rather nothing ever is slow. Occasionally I still encounter some lags when using mission control, but that’s the buggy OS 3. the screen is amazing! For those using MBAs since its early years it’s a joy to see a screen that is near-perfect 4. keyboard is a delight! To be honest, butterfly wasn’t THAT bad, but the difficult part was trusting the device not to break. With the new keyboard there are no worries at all. One con I’d share is that the space grey color is problematic. Eventually there are stains from the palms when using it heavily. I’d definitely suggest going with the silver color of all 3. I’ve been using the M1 MBA for the past 3 months and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it’s the best Mac I’ve ever owned. Given that it was purchased for $899, I think it’s the best laptop deal out there, period.

It’s a great size, weight, color, and form factor for everyday work at home or on the go. The hardware stands up to the hype and the OS and ecosystem make it a no brainer, especially on sale. The Space Gray 8GB M1 has not left me wanting more in performance (yet) and it runs Premiere Pro smoothly so far. Would buy again without a doubt.

What can you say it is a Mac so all good.
