Apple has today introduced a completely redesigned MacBook Air powered by the new M2 chip which takes the breakthrough performance and capabilities of M1 even further.
With an all-new, strikingly thin design, MacBook Air features a larger 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display, a 1080p FaceTime HD camera, a four-speaker sound system, up to 18 hours of battery life, and MagSafe charging. It is now available in four finishes — silver, space gray, midnight, and starlight.
“We’re so excited to bring our new M2 chip to the world’s two most popular laptops — the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s SVP of Worldwide Marketing. “Only with Apple silicon can you build such a thin and light notebook with a fanless design, and this combination of performance and capabilities.”
Built from the ground up around M2, the 2022 MacBook Air has an entirely new design. It is 11.3 mm thin and is only 2.7 pounds, and features a durable, all-aluminum unibody enclosure that feels incredibly solid and is built to last.
MagSafe returns to MacBook Air, giving users a dedicated charging port that is easy to connect while protecting MacBook Air when it is plugged in by quickly releasing if the charging cable is accidentally pulled.
MacBook Air offers several charging options, including an all-new 35W compact power adapter with two USB-C ports, so users can charge two devices at once. And for the first time, MacBook Air supports fast charge for charging up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes with an optional 67W USB-C power adapter.
