With this in mind, the real “MacBook Air”, in my opinion, is the 12-inch MacBook. The width and depth differences between these machines isn’t shocking, but the MacBook Air is also thicker and heavier. That acknowledged, the MacBook Air with Retina display remains a larger machine than Apple’s svelte 12-inch MacBook in every dimension.

In other words, it’s a more portable and travel-friendly machine than the previous generation Air, yet it still packs in the same 13.3-inch display size. The new machine is also 0.07-inches thinner, and features width and depth reductions of 0.83- and 0.58-inches respectively. Reduced footprintĬompared to the last-generation MacBook Air, the Retina-enabled machine is 0.21 pounds lighter, a not insignificant reduction in weight. The glass, in particular, is a much-needed visual improvement, as the outgoing machine’s aluminum bezels made the display feel cramped and outdated. The redesigned model ushers in the type of reduced bezels with edge-to-edge glass that MacBook and MacBook Pro users have been enjoying for years.

The display on the previous MacBook Air was by far its weakest quality, so the screen enhancements alone make the new model a worthwhile upgrade proposition for existing customers.Īnother weak link of the previous MacBook Air was its overly generous bezels. While not technically classifying as a wide color display, the 2018 model supports nearly 50% more colors than the previous hardware. The new MacBook Air display also receives a significant color upgrade. The screen features a 2560 x 1600 native resolution IPS panel that provides much-improved viewing angles over last-gen’s Air. The Retina display in the MacBook Air packs over 4 million pixels in the machine’s 13.3-inch display. The Retina display checks off the biggest want for MacBook Air customers, as it is the second to last product in Apple’s entire lineup, iOS or Mac, to receive a Retina update.

The MacBook Air, though, is by far the more popular machine, and will demand the majority of the public’s attention between the two.
