Order MacBook Air 2022
The MacBook Air 2022 has a new design, which is very similar to the latest MacBook Pro models. At the top of the 13.6-inch screen is the distinctive notch. Apple has hidden an improved 1080p camera in it, so that you are a lot sharper during video calling
The new Air is the first with an M2 chip. According to Apple, it is 18 percent faster than its predecessor. The graphics chip has also been improved, allowing the machine to better handle tasks such as video editing and gaming. The M2 is also energy efficient. The screen is slightly larger (13.6 instead of 13.3 inches), but the battery life remains 18 hours when playing video.
MagSafe
Like the MacBook Pro 2021, the MacBook Air has received a MagSafe charging port. This is a magnetic cable that will detach itself if you accidentally run into it. Charging with USB-C is still possible. And faster than before, because the MacBook Air supports fast charging for the first time. For example, after 30 minutes of charging, the battery is 50 percent full.
Apple also still sells the M1 MacBook Air from 2020. For most people, this machine is good enough and with a price tag of 1219 euros, it is three hundred euros cheaper. You can get it even cheaper at many stores, as you can see in the MacBook Air price comparison.
