MacBook Air 13.6" M2
Processor and Performance:
Apple M2 chip: Like the MacBook Pro you mentioned, it features the powerful M2 chip with an 8-core CPU and 8-core GPU. This translates to significant performance gains in areas like video editing, photo editing, and multitasking compared to the M1 chip found in older models.
Display:
13.6-inch Liquid Retina display: Unlike the Pro's Retina display, the Air goes for a Liquid Retina display with a slightly higher resolution of 2560 x 1664 pixels. This offers increased screen real estate and even sharper visuals with improved color accuracy and wider viewing angles.
Design and Portability:
Thin and lightweight design: Maintaining the classic Air aesthetic, it's incredibly thin and light, making it highly portable and travel-friendly. Compared to the Pro, it has a slightly sleeker, wedge-shaped design.
Other Features:
Mag Safe 3 charging: Supports Mag Safe charging for convenient magnetic attachment and faster charging.
Magic Keyboard with Touch ID: Similar to the Pro, it has a backlit Magic Keyboard with Touch ID for fingerprint authentication.
Up to 17 hours of battery life: Offers slightly less battery life than the Pro, but still ample for most users.
Two Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports: Provides connectivity options for peripherals and external displays.
No Touch Bar: Unlike the Pro, it does not include the Touch Bar, relying on traditional function keys. Some prefer this for familiarity and simplicity.
BIG, BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY
The 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display features over 500 nits of brightness,
P3 wide color and support for 1 billion colors for vibrant images and incredible detail.
UP TO 18 HOURS OF BATTERY LIFE — Go all day and into the night, thanks to the power-efficient performance of the Apple M2 chip.
