During the WWDC keynote today, Apple unveiled the 15-inch version of the popular MacBook Air. It is claimed to be the world’s thinnest laptop of its size and joins the current 13-inch Air. The new MacBook comes powered by the M2 processor and boasts a new Retina display that can reach a brightness of 500 nits and display a billion colors.

Meet “the world’s best 15-inch laptop”

The new Macbook Air model has a thickness of 11.5mm, which apparently makes it the world’s thinnest 15-inch laptop, at least that’s what Apple says. The device will be around 1.496kgs, meaning it’s also one of the lightest notebooks out there. In fact, Apple states the new machine is half a pound lighter than “a best-selling 15-inch Intel Core i7 PC laptop”. The Cupertino company also claims the new Air to be up to 12 times faster than the fastest Intel MacBook Air models and deliver up to 18 hours of battery life.

The 15-inch MacBook Air is powered by an M2 chip, the same processor that powers the 13-inch model. It comes with an 8-core CPU, featuring 4 performance and 4 efficient cores, a 10-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine. The laptop gets 8GB of unified memory that can be configured with up to 24GB.

The M2 chip in the 15-inch MacBook Air will help it provide up to 18 hours of battery life. The laptop also features two USB-C Thunderbolt ports, a MagSafe charging port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack for connecting all of your devices. In addition, the device gets three microphones and six speakers.

Apple will offer the new Macbook in midnight, starlight, space gray, and silver color options. The 15-inch Air is available for order today starting at $1,299 ($1,199 for education), with shipments set to begin next week.
