Built for Apple Intelligence
MacBook Air is the world’s most popular laptop for a reason. Actually, for a lot of reasons. It delivers up to 18 hours of battery life[1]. The M4 chip unlocks a whole new level of performance for work and play. Apple Intelligence is built in to help you get things done effortlessly[2]. And it now comes in a stunning Sky Blue colour. With the perfectly portable MacBook Air, you’ll be ready to take on just about anything, anywhere.
Design: Built To Go Places
Remarkably light and just over 11 millimetres thin, MacBook Air fits easily into your on‑the‑go lifestyle — and your bag. MacBook Air with M4 is made with over 50 per cent recycled materials and has a durable recycled aluminium enclosure.
Two Perfectly Portable Sizes
The 13‑inch MacBook Air is the ultimate on-the-go laptop, and the 15‑inch model gives you even more space onscreen for multitasking[3].
A New Colour is in the Air: Sky Blue
Now with Sky Blue, four beautiful colours will have you on cloud nine. And every MacBook Air comes with a colour-matched MagSafe charging cable.
Incredibly light and thin, MacBook Air fits easily in your backpack.
With up to 18 hours of battery life[1], you can get work done anywhere you go.
Performance and Battery Life
The M4 chip in MacBook Air makes graphics and gaming look better than ever. With second-generation hardware-accelerated ray tracing, you get more realistic images for truly immersive gaming. And Dynamic Caching drives a huge performance boost for pro apps and games. So everything you do feels less like work and more like play.

M4. The Chip That Zips
Apple silicon combines a powerful CPU, GPU, memory and more on a single chip, making all your apps — from Microsoft 365 Copilot to Adobe Creative Cloud — run faster while requiring less power.
Multitasker. Multifaster
MacBook Air with M4 brings even more speed and fluidity to everything you do, like working between loads of apps and tabs, editing videos, or playing games like Sid Meier’s Civilization VII. All with a silent, fanless design.
Neural Engine. Blazing fast for AI
Thanks to the faster Neural Engine in the M4 chip, MacBook Air has even more powerful AI capabilities to enhance everything you do. From automatic camera frame centring to AI image upscaling to running the latest large language models, you’ll be more productive and creative than ever.
Live a Full Battery Life
MacBook Air has up to 18 hours of battery life. And it supports fast charging, getting up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes[4]. So you can power through anything you’re working on without worrying about your battery.
Apple Intelligence. Do more. Effort less
Apple Intelligence is the personal intelligence system that helps you write, express yourself and get things done effortlessly. With groundbreaking privacy protections, it gives you peace of mind that no one else can access your data — not even Apple[2].
Writing Tools
Use Apple Intelligence to proofread your text and rewrite different versions until the tone and wording are just right, and summarise selected text with a click. Or use Compose to tap directly into ChatGPT to create content from scratch.
Image Playground
Create fun, original images based on a description, a concept, or even a person from your Photos library.
Siri
Siri can help you like never before, drawing on your personal context by using the information on your device to help find what you’re looking for — like a presentation file shared with you in an email weeks ago[5]. Siri can even tap into ChatGPT to bring answers straight to you. No account needed.
Great Powers Come with Great Privacy
Apple Intelligence is designed to protect your privacy at every step. It’s integrated into the core of your Mac through on‑device processing. So it’s aware of your personal information without collecting your personal information. And with groundbreaking Private Cloud Compute, Apple Intelligence can draw on larger server-based models, running on Apple silicon, to handle more complex requests for you while protecting your privacy.
