MacBook Air: Power. Itās in the Air.
Apple's thinnest, lightest notebook, completely transformed by the Apple M1 chip. With CPU speeds up to 3.5x faster and GPU speeds up to 5x faster. Apple's most advanced Neural Engine for up to 9x faster machine learning. The longest battery life ever in a MacBook Air. And a silent, fanless design. This much power has never been this ready to go.
Ā
M1: Small chip. Giant leap.
Itās here. Apple's first chip designed specifically for Mac. Packed with an astonishing 16 billion transistors, the Apple M1 system on a chip (SoC) integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O and so much more onto a single tiny chip. With incredible performance, custom technologies and industry-leading power efficiency, M1 is not just a next step for Mac ā itās another level entirely.
Ā
CPU: 8-core CPU Devours tasks. Sips battery.
M1 has the fastest CPU Apple have ever made. With that kind of processing speed, MacBook Air can take on new extraordinarily intensive tasks like professional-quality editing and action-packed gaming. But the 8ācore CPU on M1 isnāt just up to 3.5x faster than the previous generation2 ā it balances high-performance cores with efficiency cores that can still speed through everyday jobs while using just a tenth of the power.
Ā
MACOS BIG SUR: The power of macOS Big Sur on M1.
Developed to unlock the potential of the M1 chip, macOS Big Sur transforms Mac with major performance benefits and so much more. Powerful updates for apps. A beautiful new design. Industry-leading privacy features and bestāināclass security. Itās Apple's most powerful software ever ā running on their most advanced hardware yet.
Ā
SPEED AND RESPONSIVENESS: More power. Wakes instantly.
The M1 chip and macOS Big Sur work together to make the entire system snappier. MacBook Air wakes instantly from sleep. Everyday tasks from flipping through photos to browsing Safari are faster. And your hardestāworking apps all have access to the power they need.
Ā
BIGGEST COLLECTION OF APPS EVER
Run powerful apps built for M1. All your existing apps work thanks to Rosetta 2. And for the first time, you can use your favourite iPhone and iPad apps directly on macOS Big Sur. Altogether youāll have access to the biggest collection of apps ever for Mac.
Ā
UNIFIED MEMORY
The doāitāall notebook gets doātheāunbelievable memory. The M1 chip brings superfast unified memory. This single pool of highābandwidth, lowālatency memory allows apps to share data between the CPU, GPU and Neural Engine efficiently ā so everything you do is fast and fluid.
Ā
STUNNING RETINA DISPLAY: Lifelike colours for unreal beauty.
Images take on new levels of detail and realism on the brilliant 13.3āinch, 2560x1600-resolution Retina display. Text is sharp and clear. Colours are more vibrant than ever. And the glass goes right to the edge of the enclosure, so nothing takes away from your gorgeous view.
Ā
P3 WIDE COLOUR GAMUT
A wider palette of colours on display with 25% more colours than sRGB.
Ā
PIXEL DENSITY
Razor sharp text clarity.
Ā
TRUE TONE TECHNOLOGY
Good looking. And easy on the eyes. MacBook Air automatically adjusts the white point of your display to the colour temperature of your environment for a more natural viewing experience.
Ā
CAMERA AND MICS: Youāre live on the Air.
The image signal processor in the M1 chip helps you look your best for every FaceTime call and video conference. Three builtāin microphones make sure what you say gets heard whether youāre on a call, dictating a note or asking Siri about the weather.
Ā
FaceTime HD camera
Get clearer, sharper images. See more detail in shadows and highlights. And face detection uses the Neural Engine to adjust white balance and exposure for even more natural-looking skin tones.
Ā
Three-microphone array
Say āHelloā to mics that focus on your voice instead of whatās going on around you.
Ā
MAGIC KEYBOARD: Get down to it. Write away.
When a keyboard types like a dream and still does a whole lot more: thatās magic. With new pre-programmed shortcuts, useful features are even easier to access. Get help from Siri, switch keyboard languages, respond with the perfect emoji, find documents with Spotlight ā thereās so much you can do with just a tap. And the backlit keys with ambient light sensor help you type in lowālight settings.
Ā
Scissor mechanism
The refined scissor mechanism delivers the best typing experience ever on a Mac notebook.
Ā
Force Touch trackpad
Precise control with plenty of room to swipe, pinch or zoom.
Ā
TOUCH ID
One touch is all it takes to lock or unlock MacBook Air. Use your fingerprint to rent a movie, buy an app, or access things like secure documents or system settings without having to re-enter your password. And when you shop online with Apple Pay, Touch ID fills in your shipping and billing information without sharing your card details.
Ā
CONNECTIVITY
Charges, chats, streams, works and plays well with others.
Ā
