Apple’s thin-and-light MacBook Air series of laptops have proven to be incredibly popular over the years. At WWDC 2023, the Cupertino, California-based company has announced the widely anticipated 15-inch variant of the form factor.
Besides the obvious inclusion of a larger 15-inch display size, the laptop is fairly similar to the existing 13-inch M2 model. It includes the same design language as its smaller relative and the same M2 chip.
Apple boasts its 11.5 mm thinness, making it “the thinnest 15-inch laptop.” It weighs 3 pounds and comes in four colours, including ‘Midnight’ and ‘Starlight.’
Other additions include a 5mm screen border, a six-speaker array, a 1080p webcam, and MagSafe charging.
Apple also says that the new Air is 12 times faster than the fastest Intel-based Air while including 18 hours of battery life.
Apple says the 15-inch MacBook Air will release next week and is available to order today. It will cost $1,299 USD (about $1,743.43 CAD).
