Make big things happen. All day long.
Up to 12 hours of battery life.
It won’t call it a day until you do.
MacBook Air lasts up to an incredible 12 hours between charges. So from your morning coffee till your evening commute, you can work unplugged. When it’s time to kick back and relax, you can get up to 12 hours of iTunes film playback. And with up to 30 days of standby time, you can go away for weeks and pick up where you left off.*
Thin. Light. Powerful.
And ready for anything.
Whatever the task, fifth-generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors with Intel HD Graphics 6000 are up to it. From editing photos to browsing the web, everything happens ultra-fast. And all that power is encased in an incredibly thin 1.7-centimetre unibody design that weighs only 1.35 kilos.
802.11ac Wi-Fi support.
The next generation of wireless.
With the latest 802.11ac technology, MacBook Air takes Wi-Fi speeds over the top. Connect to an 802.11ac base station — including AirPort Extreme or AirPort Time Capsule — and experience wireless performance up to 3x faster than the previous Wi-Fi generation. 802.11ac also delivers expanded range, so you can work more freely than ever.
Flash storage in MacBook Air is up to 17x faster than a 5400-rpm notebook hard drive. So everything you do is snappy and responsive. MacBook Air even wakes up fast, thanks to flash storage and fifth-generation Intel Core processors.
Powerful apps included.
Get straight to work. And play.
Every Mac comes with Photos, iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers and Keynote. So you can be creative and productive right from the start. You also get great apps for email, surfing the web, sending texts and making FaceTime calls — there’s even an app for finding new apps.
macOS.
It’s why there’s nothing else like a Mac.
macOS is the operating system that powers everything you do on a Mac. macOS Sierra introduces Siri to Mac — along with new ways to enjoy your photos, and work more seamlessly between devices.
