Who Is the M2 MacBook Air For?
And do you sit within that camp?
The M1 MacBook Air redefined Apple’s notebook line. Suddenly, you could grab their cheapest, lightest, and quietest portable Mac and gain access to Pro-level performance.
However, all of that power and next-generation performance was housed in a rapidly ageing body. As loved as it might be, the wedge-shaped design of the MacBook Air has been due an update for quite some time.
Earlier this week, that update arrived in the form of the M2 MacBook Air.
The wedge has been swapped for a mini MacBook Pro aesthetic, and the return of MagSafe is joined by brand-new Apple silicon, a notched screen, and a higher price tag.
But with the M1 MacBook Air still very much alive and kicking on the Apple Store, who is the M2 MacBook Air for, exactly?
The spec options
The base-level M2 MacBook Air is remarkably similar to that of its predecessor. The 8-core CPU comes with 8GB of unified memory, and 256GB of SSD storage.
