In early June, during Apple's WWDC, the company announced the launch of an updated MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro equipped with its second-generation M2 chip. Both laptops go on sale this month.

The biggest changes are coming to the MacBook Air. Apple managed to reduce the overall volume by 20% when compared with the M1 MacBook Air the company launched in 2020. The product also measures only 11.3 millimeters thick, down from 16.1mm.

As a result, the company is marketing the 2.7-pound laptop as "remarkably thin." But the new MacBook Air also promises to pack a punch, thanks to the newly designed M2 chip inside.
