Apple Drops New MacBook Air With Powerful M3 Chip
In October, Apple unveiled the next-gen 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro with new M3 chipsets. While it was inevitable the MacBook Air would receive the same treatment, it was mainly a question of when. The wait is finally over. Today, the company announced updated versions of its 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air with the latest M3 chip. Both models are available for purchase starting today and will begin to arrive on March 8.
Apple didn't make any external changes to either laptop. After all, it's only been two years since it launched the fully redesigned 13-inch MacBook Air—ditching the signature wedge design for a boxier frame, adding a slightly larger 13.6-inch display, upgrading the webcam to 1080p, and including a MagSafe port for charging.
The 15-inch MacBook Air, on the other hand, was released less than a year ago. It was the first of its kind in the Air lineup and includes a majority of the same features as its smaller counterpart. So, it makes sense that Apple kept the same design on both.
