Apple MacBook Air 13.3″ with Retina Display

Apple MacBook Air 13.3″ with Retina Display (M1)

The laptop that changed what people expect from a thin-and-light. The M1 MacBook Air was Apple’s first with its own silicon, and it made the jump from Intel dramatically: faster, cooler, completely silent and with battery life that still holds up well against much newer machines.

The M1 chip combines an 8-core CPU, integrated GPU and 16-core Neural Engine on a single chip, handling everyday work, browsing, streaming, photo editing and even light video editing with ease. The design is completely fanless, so it runs silently no matter what you’re doing, and it stays cool on your lap.

Battery life is the standout: up to 18 hours of video playback and up to 15 hours of wireless web browsing on a single charge, genuinely enough for a full working day and then some.

The 13.3-inch Retina display runs at 2560×1600 with 400 nits brightness, P3 wide colour and True Tone, which adjusts white balance to your surroundings for comfortable reading. The Magic Keyboard has a comfortable, reliable scissor mechanism, and Touch ID lets you unlock the Mac, fill passwords and make Apple Pay purchases with a fingerprint.

The all-aluminium wedge design weighs 1.29kg, with two Thunderbolt / USB 4 ports for charging, data and an external display, plus Wi-Fi 6. It runs iPhone and iPad apps natively and supports Apple Intelligence.
