MacBook Air

Apple announced the 2022 MacBook Air at WWDC. This 13.6-inch laptop supports Apple's M2 processor, and it will launch in July 2022 for $1199.

The starting MacBook Air model will ship with a 30W charger, but Apple is offering a new $59 67W power adapter that allows it to quickly charge to 80-percent in just 20 minutes. But if you upgrade this model to macOS Ventura, you’ll be able to take advantage of the Continuity Camera feature that lets you use your MagSafe-ready iPhone’s camera as a webcam. If you want more power, storage, and RAM, the $1,499 model has a 10-core GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. The 2022 MacBook Air features a larger 2560x1664 13.6-inch display with smaller bezels surrounding it. The starting model includes the M2, an eight-core GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage. It will be available in silver, space grey, and new “starlight” gold and “midnight” blue colors.

During its annual developer conference keynote, Apple finally revealed its often-rumoured M2-powered MacBook Air.

During the keynote, Apple confirmed that the M1-powered MacBook Air will remain in its laptop lineup. Other new features include a display notch that houses a 1080p webcam that offers twice the low-light performance when compared to the previous MacBook Air. Apple also confirmed during its WWDC 2022 keynote that the new MacBook Air does not include a fan.

The speed tests and all that fun stuff are going to have to wait until we get to bring one of these bad boys home. In the meantime, it's just kind of nice ...

Le nouveau MacBook Air a bien été annoncé durant la WWDC 2022. Pour cette nouvelle génération, la tant attendue puce Apple M2 est de la partie, offrant.

Le MacBook Air avec puce M2 est enfin arrivé durant la WWDC 2022. La firme américaine souligne que le design est 20 % plus compact que le MacBook Air M1, avec notamment une épaisseur de 11,3 mm pour un poids de 1,2 kg. Le nouveau MacBook Air a bien été annoncé durant la WWDC 2022.

MagSafe, le port de recharge aimanté, fera bien évidemment son grand retour — comme sur les derniers MacBook Pro. On dispose aussi de deux ports Thunderbolt/USB 4. Esthétiquement, le MacBook Air profite des dernières avancées constatées sur le MacBook Pro pour afficher un nouveau look. Si la WWDC est un événement dédié aux développeurs et centré sur les nouveautés logicielles, Apple profite parfois de sa conférence inaugurale pour présenter des produits.

Alors celui-là on l'attendait. Le nouveau MacBook Air est là et le moins que l'on puisse dire, c'est qu'il va faire beaucoup parler, tout comme la puce qui ...

La marque compare allègrement la puissance et la conso avec des PC Windows. Néanmoins, d’après les nombreux graphiques d’Apple, M2 consomme tout de même plus que M1. Toujours gravée en 5nm, cette puce M2 n’est pas une grosse révolution par rapport à sa prédécesseure, mais elle vient avec des améliorations qui sont à la hauteur de nos attentes. Le MacBook Pro 13 pouces a lui aussi droit à la puce M2, mais garde exactement le même format. Par contre, ce qui nous plaît beaucoup moins, c’est le prix de ces nouvelles machines. La charge rapide est aussi invitée avec un nouveau chargeur double USB-C de 30 W pour pouvoir recharger un autre appareil en même temps. Annoncé au milieu de la keynote Apple ce lundi 6 juin, le design du nouveau MacBook Air est complètement revu, et il s’inspire grandement des MacBook Air 14 et 16 pouces.

The new lightweight laptop arrives in July and adds a 1080p webcam and the M2 chip.

That also means the new MacBook Air can take advantage of an upgraded 1080p webcam for better quality during video calls, whereas the new MacBook Pro is stuck with the same old 720p camera. Quite bizarrely, the new (and cheaper) MacBook Air is the fancier of the two new laptops. For comparison, the Pro is 3 pounds and 0.61 inches thick.

Le MacBook Air de génération précédente restera toutefois disponible. Sorti fin 2020, le précédent MacBook Air n’avait que peu de choses à se faire pardonner. Un an et demi après l’arrivée du MacBook Air équipé du tout premier processeur conçu par Apple, la marque fait radicalement évoluer son ordinateur ultraportable, pour le remettre au goût du jour.

The refreshed MacBook Air has a new 13.6-inch display, a 1080p webcam and a completely fanless body. The cheaper M1 Air stays in the lineup, too.

A $1,499 version has an M2 chip with an eight-core CPU and 10-core GPU, 8GB of memory and a 512GB SSD. The M1 MacBook Air stays in the lineup as well for $999 (£999, AU$1,499). Apple said with the new M2 chip, Final Cut Pro performance is nearly 40% faster than on the M1 Air and Photoshop is up to 20% faster. The Magic keyboard has a full row of function keys with Touch ID as well as a large Force Touch trackpad. Above the display is an updated 1080p camera joined by a three-mic array and a four-speaker sound system. The new fanless body is available in four colors: silver, space gray, starlight and midnight. Like those, it has a chunkier, squared-off look that's almost retro-feeling instead of the gently curved lids tapering to a point that previously gave the Air more of a wedge shape.

The new MacBook Air delivers a powerful new M2 chip, better display and sharper webcam in a sleeker design, but it's pricey.

So who would get the $1,299 / AU$1,999 13-inch MacBook Pro? Anyone who wants even more power (thanks to its active cooling system) and 10-core GPU standard. The design is delightfully portable, and the display is simply awesome in person. Watching the MacBook Air M2 process seven simultaneous streams in Final Cut Pro, I once again felt like this system has the feel of a MacBook Pro in terms of power. The starting configuration comes with a 30W USB-power adapter, but the 35W power dual USB-port adapter costs $20 /AU$30 extra (it's included with the $1,499 model). And the 67W USB-C charger, which supports fast charging of 50% in 30 minutes, costs $20 /AU$30 more than the standard charger. Based on our initial impressions, the new MacBook Air 2022 could be one of the best laptops of the year. The new MacBook Air has the most Pro-level display yet, and that's thanks to an increased brightness of 500 nits. The highlight here is Stage Manager, a new way of multitasking that puts the app you're working on front and center while also making it easy to switch between other open apps. The first thing I noticed about the new MacBook Air 2022 is how small and light it feels. Neither of those numbers vary from what Apple promises with the M1 MacBook Air, though. The Midnight MacBook Air has personality without being too loud. During a demo I was very impressed with the volume and clarity. The $1,499 / AU$2,349 model steps that up to a 10-core GPU for more graphics muscle and 512GB SSD.

En plus de cela, on trouve un port MagSafe pour notre plus grand plaisir. Une telle finesse n’a pas empêché Apple de remettre un port Jack sur une des tranches. Le constructeur a toutefois fait une entorse à la règle cette année en annonçant son tout nouveau MacBook Air !

Apple intended to launch the revamped MacBook Air in 2021, but it was delayed by supply-chain snags, the chip shortage and internal design challenges. The MacBook Air was first launched in 2008 by Steve Jobs, when the Apple co-founder pulled the ultrathin laptop out of a manila envelope. The new MacBook Air loses the tapered shape of the previous version and instead uses a design that looks similar to the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros launched at the end of 2021.

Si vous voulez plus de puissance, de stockage et de RAM, le modèle à 1 849 euros est doté d’un GPU à 10 cœurs, de 16 Go de RAM et de 512 Go de stockage. En outre, il est encore plus petit et plus léger qu’avant, avec une épaisseur de 11,3 mm et un poids de 1,22 kg. La WWDC d’Apple n’est pas un événement qui comporte traditionnellement plusieurs annonces de matériel, mais néanmoins, un nouveau MacBook Air a occupé la scène pendant la keynote.

Les constructeurs l’ont compris, en adaptant leurs produits dans le but de nous fournir des outils performants pour le télétravail. Notamment, le besoin en équipement pour la visioconférence a évolué. Et, sur ce point, le MacBook Air (Apple M2) enfonce son prédécesseur. C’est le même constat qu’on fait chaque année pour les iPhone : d’une génération à l’autre, le gain est difficile à apprécier — sauf pour un professionnel ayant des gros besoins en ressources (mais il n’est pas la cible du MacBook Air). Sur ce critère, le MacBook (Apple M2) marque une vraie rupture. Apple a annoncé un nouveau MacBook Air à l’occasion de sa conférence inaugurant la WWDC 2022 (événement centré sur les développeurs), le 6 juin 2022. La seule vraie différence notable tient dans l’épaisseur : elle est fixe pour le nouveau MacBook Air. On note aussi différentes finitions disponibles. Néanmoins, le précédent MacBook Air, une référence à nos yeux (que nous avions pu tester), pourvue d’un processeur Apple M1, reste au catalogue.

Apple a profité de la WWDC 2022 pour annoncer non seulement son nouvel Apple Silicon M2 mais aussi son nouveau MacBook Air M2.

Ce n’est pas aussi bien que le MacBook Air M1 mais mais c’est tout de même très très bon. Une fois l’euphorie de l’annonce passée, cela serait mentir que de ne pas avouer qu’on reste super emballé par un tel produit. On pense ainsi que le MacBook Air M2 pourra assurer aisément assurer une journée chargée. A l’intérieur, on retrouve donc le nouvel Apple Silicon M2. Il vient tout juste d’être annoncé par Apple et bien évidemment, on n’a pas encore pu le tester. En effet, le design est plus racé par rapport aux générations précédentes et surtout, on retrouve cet écran avec une encoche. Une fois la surprise du poids passée, on découvre ce nouveau design qui n’est pas sans rappeler les très récents MacBook Pro 14 et 16.

Cependant, ce n’est qu’un chargeur de 35W qui est fourni avec le MacBook Air de base. Au niveau de la luminosité, le modèle M2 gagne 100 nits pour monter désormais à 500 nits. Mais jusqu’à présent, même le MacBook Air M1 pouvait tirer la langue avec autant d’exigences en ressources gourmandes. Le MacBook Air fait peau neuve sans vraiment bouleverser la donne ou casser les codes Apple. On a bien un produit floqué d’une pomme au dos et qui respecte les codes esthétiques de la marque. Mais c’est au niveau de la charge qu’il progresse. C’est plus que les 13,3 pouces du MacBook Air précédent et cela grâce à des bordures affinées. C’est deux fois mieux que sur le modèle précédent. Néanmoins, elle se fait discrète avec certains logiciels en se cachant dans une bande noire si besoin. Petite touche design : le câble de recharge est désormais assorti au coloris de l’appareil (avec le côté USB-C blanc pour être assorti à l’adapteur secteur qui reste standard). Et il a été redessiné pour laisser apparaître un rond pour mieux signaler le capteur. Mais cette fois, si la puce Apple Silicon a été dévoilée et décortiquée, elle a déjà un cadre pour que l’on juge de ses performances. Le MacBook Air 2022 signe le retour de la prise MagSafe pour se recharger, cette prise aimantée qui permet d’éviter d’arracher le câble si jamais vous devez vous prendre les pieds dedans. Il conserve son châssis en aluminium recyclé à 100 %, mais le rend plus compact.

The MacBook Air 2022 and MacBook Pro 2022 are both compelling M2-powered laptops, but there's some key differences you need to know.

The MacBook Air 2022 delivers strong M2 performance, a bigger display than the Pro and a sharper webcam in a slimmer and lighter design. And you can get it for $100 less than the MacBook Pro 2022. But I could see some splurging for the Pro to get a little extra oomph and more time away from the outlet. This is where the MacBook Pro 2022 pulls ahead. The MacBook Pro 2022 should offer longer endurance overall with its larger 58.2 watt-hour battery, as it's rated to last for 20 hours of video playback and 17 hours of wireless web surfing. The new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are pretty evenly matched when it comes to their displays. Meanwhile, the MacBook Pro 2022 retains its $1,299 price. We can't say much about the audio quality yet, but the 2022 Air sports a new four-speaker system that's positioned between the keyboard and the display, complete with Spatial audio and Dolby Atmos support. Both the new MacBook Air and new MacBook Pro could be good enough to land on our best laptop list. A MacBook Air 2022 vs MacBook Pro 13-inch 2022 comparison is just what you need if you're trying to decide which new MacBook to buy this year. Here's how the new Air and Pro stack up. But Apple is keeping the entry-level MacBook Pro 2022 13-inch around for a reason, and it packs the same chip while offering some notable advantages over the Air.

Apple has given the MacBook Air its first major refresh after it transitioned to Apple Silicon. Here's how the new M2 version measures against the 2020 M1 ...

Apple offered the 7-core GPU M1 MacBook Air with SSD options starting from 256GB and rising to 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB at most. The M2 MacBook Air has a larger 52.6-watt-hour lithium polymer battery. The M1 MacBook Pro has stereo speakers, which offer wide stereo sound. However, with the inclusion of MagSafe 3 charging, users can recharge their MacBook Air without sacrificing one of those two ports. The report claims the Geekbench 5 Single-Core test scores 1,869 on the M2 chip, up from the 1,706 of the M1 MacBook Air in Geekbench's browser. However, the shift to a 1080p webcam in the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models probably made those affected by pandemic work-from-home initiatives yearn for more resolution. Sticking with LED, the 2022 MacBook Air has a slightly larger 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display. The M1 MacBook Air has a footprint of 11.97 inches by 8.36 inches. The 2020 MacBook Air is best known for being a slim and light notebook while also giving users the essentials of Mac usability. However, this is based on pre-release chips, which may not reflect scores when the M2 MacBook Air ships. The M1 MacBook Air looked like the Intel model it replaced, albeit with new internal components. MacBook Air (2020, M1)

The upgraded Air offers a little bit more of everything. More power, better GPU, brighter display, a higher resolution webcam, ...

If you go with the base model you’ll get a standard 30W power adapter, but if you upgrade to the more expensive model you’ll get a power brick with two USB-C ports for dual-charging. It has the same eight-core CPU design as M1, which Apple says offers 18 percent more performance at the same wattage as the M1. It also continues to feature a fanless design, which is one of its most-loved features. Of course the big news is the all-new M2 SoC, which is physically larger than the M1 chip it replaces. The redesigned Air looks a lot like a slimmed-down version of the new MacBook Pro. Apple is using the same “slab” design versus the wedge of the previous model. The result is a slightly upgraded Air compared to its M1 predecessor.

Apple has a new MacBook Air in town and it looks stunning. Let's just hope it's performance can live up to its looks.

Still, with the minimal differences between the two MacBook Air models and the MacBook Pro 13-inch, I think consumers are likely going to be confused. If you do a ton of high-performance work, perhaps the M2 13-inch MacBook Pro ($1,699) is the better option. Overall the new MacBook Air is likely a dream computer for many people. I’m attracted to the new Air ($1,499) since it’s new and looks the best of the three, but if you want to save $200, the base-level Air ($1,299) is still a fine laptop. The new design of the MacBook Air looks excellent and feels incredibly thin and light in hand. However, Apple continues to sell the 13-inch MacBook Pro (now with an M2 chip) and the older M1 MacBook Air, which is still a great computer. The new MacBook Air can even fast charge through this port, but you’ll need to make sure you’re using the correct charging brick. I was hoping to see the return of the SD card slot or another USB-C port on the left, but at least you can charge this Air and still use two accessories without a dongle. The basic 8-core GPU Air ($1,499) comes with a 30-watt charger. Though the new design doesn’t feature a wedge anymore, it’s now a consistent 0.44 inches thin, much thinner than the older Air, that’s 0.63 inches at its thickest point. RAM also works faster on the new chip since it supports 50 percent more memory bandwidth (100GB/s) than the M1 chip. On the other hand, if you don’t do a lot of intense work or gaming, the lack of a fan will be a massive plus for you since the computer will be silent and compact.
