Reasons To Buy

Designed to go places.

Superlight and under half an inch thin, MacBook Air fits easily into your life and is built with the planet in mind. MacBook Air with M3 is made with 50 percent recycled materials — an Apple first. And all MacBook Air laptops have a durable recycled aluminum enclosure.

Two perfectly portable sizes.

Two perfectly portable sizes. The 13‑inch model is the ultimate on‑the‑go laptop, and the 15‑inch model gives you more space onscreen for multitasking.2

Four stellar colors.

Four stellar colors. Your options are out of this world — and each one comes with a matching MagSafe charging cable.

A chipload of power.

The moment you open your MacBook Air, it’s ready for whatever you throw at it. And no matter how intense the workload, it stays silent thanks to a fanless design. Whether you’re multitasking between apps, editing videos in iMovie, or playing Baldur’s Gate 3 in Game Mode, the M3 chip brings more speed and fluidity to everything you do.

MacBook Air with M3 leverages the incredible AI performance of the Neural Engine to deliver intelligent macOS features that enhance productivity and creativity, including powerful camera features, real-time speech to text, and visual understanding.

And with access to a broad ecosystem of apps that deliver advanced AI features, users can do everything from checking their homework with AI Math Assistance in Goodnotes, to automatically enhancing photos in Pixelmator Pro, to removing background noise from a video using CapCut.

A battery that goes all day. Both MacBook Air with M2 and MacBook Air with M3 provide up to 18 hours of battery life, so you can leave the power adapter at home.

New to Mac?

If you love iPhone, you’ll love Mac. Mac is designed to be just as easy to learn as iPhone. And whether you’re copying text on your phone to paste on your Mac, chatting with friends in Messages, or locating devices with Find My — when you use Mac with iPhone, they work seamlessly together.

Setup is a breeze.

Setup is a breeze. Easily move files, apps, and more from your old PC or Mac with Migration Assistant. And if you need any help, Apple Support is always just an online chat, phone call, or in‑store appointment away.

Access files anywhere with iCloud.

Access files anywhere with iCloud. iCloud lets you store all your photos, contacts, and documents so they’re available on all your devices. Start a to‑do list on your iPhone and check off items on your MacBook Air — and so much more.

Powerful apps built in.

Mac is built to last.

Yep, Mac does that.

Yep, Mac does that. It’s not just MacBook Air. Every Mac is designed to be this easy, powerful, and amazing.

Let’s be clear. It’s brilliant.

The Liquid Retina display on MacBook Air is a sight to behold, with support for 1 billion colors and up to 2x the resolution of comparable PC laptops. Photos and videos pop with rich contrast and sharp detail, and text appears supercrisp for easy reading.

High-definition camera.

High-definition camera. Look your best with the 1080p FaceTime HD camera, whether you’re catching up with friends and family or collaborating with coworkers around the globe.

Immersive sound system.

Connections on full display.

The MagSafe charging cable easily attaches and detaches with magnets, preventing any unintended flights. Two Thunderbolt ports let you connect high-speed accessories and charge your Mac. And the headphone jack supports high‑impedance headphones. With the M3 model, you can access Wi‑Fi 6E, which has up to 2x faster throughput compared to Wi‑Fi 6.

Unlock it all with the touch of your finger.

The comfortable and quiet backlit Magic Keyboard comes with full-height function keys and Touch ID, which gives you a fast, easy, and secure way to unlock your Mac and sign in to apps and sites — all at the touch of a finger.
