THE POWER OF THE M4 CHIP MEETS ULTRA-PORTABILITY
-
Apple's MacBook Air has long been the gold standard for laptops that don't weigh you down, and the new MacBook Air powered by the M4 chip is no exception. With Apple Intelligence woven into macOS Sequoia, a new 12MP Center Stage camera, and support for two external 6K displays, this machine blends minimalist design with maximalist capability.
M4 MACBOOK AIR From its inception, the MacBook Air has been about stripping away the unnecessary. There are no moving parts or clunky fans, just a sleek aluminum slab that slips into a bag and stays silent. At under half an inch thick, the new 13-inch model (starting at $999, $899 for education) and 15-inch version ($1,199, $1,099 for education) keep that ethos alive. The fanless design isn't just a flex; it's practical. No whirring means no distractions during a Zoom call or late-night Netflix binge. Apple has leaned on its silicon wizardry to pull this off since the M1 debuted in 2020, and the M4 takes it further. Built on TSMC's 3nm process, this chip sips power while delivering muscle, up to 18 hours of battery life per Apple's testing. That's six hours more than the fastest Intel-based Airs, a boon for anyone who's ever hunted for an outlet mid-flight.
