Product description
Pretty. Powerful. Supercharged by the new M2 chip, Apple's 2023 MacBook Air balances a thin, lightweight design with first-class performance. The 15.3" Liquid Retina display brings superb visuals and colour on-screen, while the power-efficient battery keeps you going all day, and long into the night. This is an ultrafast, ultra-capable laptop that lets you work, play or create just about anything - anywhere.
Speedy. Silent. Streamlined.
This thing's fast. Like quicker than 99% of other laptops fast. Apple's next-generation M2 chip blasts through projects big and small, with even more of the speed and power efficiency that made the M1 an instant hit. And don't worry about any noisy fans distracting you either - there aren't any. It'll stay completely silent, no matter how intense the task.
A battery that just keeps going
Somehow, despite its impossibly thin design, the MacBook Air lasts up to 18 hours between charges. Pretty impressive, considering most of us struggle to even stay awake for that long. Oh, and just in case you need some juice quick, fast charging gives you up to 50% battery life in just 30 minutes.
To be clear, it's gorgeous
The 15-inch Liquid Retina display comes with 500 nits of peak brightness, along with P3 wide colour and True Tone technology. Not sure what that all means? Well, put in plain English, you get superb visuals on a clear, bright, movie-style screen. It's probably the prettiest thing you'll lay eyes on all day (yourself aside, obviously).
Look sharp. Sound great.
Kitted out with a 1080p camera and three-mic array, you'll come through loud and clear on video calls and voice recordings. Don't worry if there's background noise either - Apple's clever algorithm detects and amplifies, your voice instead of the audio around you.
What is RAM?
RAM (Random Access Memory) is different to the permanent storage provided by hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD) or memory cards in your equipment. RAM is used by your device to temporarily store data to carry out everyday operations. The more RAM your machine has, the faster you can expect it to open and run programs.
This device has 8GB RAM.
Let your fingers do the talking
Comfortable and quiet, the Magic Keyboard has a full‑height function key row for quick access to controls and shortcuts. Touch ID makes it easy to unlock, enter passwords and make secure purchases or payments — all at the touch of a finger. And with the larger Force Touch trackpad, there’s even more space to work with precision.
Make some powerful connections
The MagSafe power cable easily attaches - and detaches - with magnets, preventing any unintended flights. Two Thunderbolt ports let you connect and power high-speed accessories, and the headphone jack supports high‑impedance headphones. Did we mention each finish comes with its own matching charging cable too?
Simply compatible
All your go-to apps run lightning fast, including Microsoft 365, Zoom, plus many iPhone and iPad apps too.
Includes AppleCare warranty
Every Mac comes with a one-year limited warranty and up to ninety days of complimentary support. You can also choose to get optional AppleCare+ to extend your coverage (available separately).
Additional information: manufacturers often update their Operating System (OS) software over the course of a device's lifespan – this means that your product might ship with a more advanced OS than specified.
