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.

It’s my first time using a MacBook. I still have to get used to it since I have always used Windows computers but I really love it and it’s incredibly fast.

So far I love this computer. Fast, efficient, good battery life. Delivery was on time. 10 out of 10 so far

This was my first apple laptop ever. I’m very impressed with the speed and power of this piece of tech. I haven’t been able to stop using it. Also picking it up from B&H was pretty straightforward and easy, but not super easy in the sense that they made sure they were giving it to the right person, which I found great from a security aspect. I hope to do more business with this establishment in the future. Thanks again. If you’re looking for a powerful small laptop then this one is highly recommended.

Great MacBook. Getting use to the extreme thin body. Almost afraid of breaking it. Bought a cover for it and its more comfortable in hand. This was for my husband, with big hands.

The m1-based MacBook Air is a significant computer. I have been fortunate over the years to purchase various MacBooks and the evolution of improvements is greatly appreciated. Being able to purchase a 16GB/512GB is a treat. I am also pleased that interaction with B&H during the purchase was stellar and I recommend the firm!

First thing to note is the gold color is actually more of a rose gold/copper color, which I really like, but anyone buying this should be aware the color really is a pink not a gold. I upgraded from a mid-2015 MacBook Air and am really impressed with the speed from the M1 chip, especially working with photography and video editing, this has made a huge difference in processing speeds making me more productive without going the MacBook Pro route. You will definitely need a USB-C port expander because there’s only 2 ports on this computer, one of which is used by the charger, which then leaves you with only 1 more to attach any peripherals. I purchased the Satechi UBS-C Multiport adapter in gold and it matches the laptop’s pink/gold color perfectly and allows me to have a second monitor set-up as well as USB 3 ports and another USB-C port. Retina display is beautiful and the colors are vibrant. So far really happy with the upgrade.
