For those seeking maximum power, customizable options include a 10-core GPU, 32GB of RAM, and up to 2TB of storage.

Beyond the powerful internals, the new MacBook Air boasts a fresh color option: Sky Blue—a stylish, subtly tinted silver. Other color choices include Midnight (black), Starlight (gold), and Silver. While Space Gray is no longer available, Midnight and Silver offer similar alternatives. Regardless of your color preference, your MacBook Air will come with a matching MagSafe charging cable.

The integrated "Center Stage camera" has been upgraded to a 12-megapixel sensor, resulting in significantly improved video quality for your FaceTime calls.

While not strictly necessary for existing MacBook Air users, Apple claims the M4 chip is twice as fast as the M1, making it a worthwhile upgrade. The performance leap is even more dramatic compared to older Intel-based MacBooks, with Apple boasting a 23x speed increase over the latest Intel model.
