Apple has once again surprised the tech world — this time with the all-new MacBook Air M4 model, which not only boasts improved performance but also new design elements. The M4 chip-powered model is already rated as one of the most powerful and efficient “Air” series.
Performance: M4 chip takes performance to a new level
The new Apple M4 chip features a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, which is twice the performance of the M1 chip. In real-world tests, such as 4K video editing, AI-based tasks, and various professional applications, the M4 chip significantly speeds up processes. Apple says the new chip is not only fast, but also energy-efficient — meaning more speed with minimal power consumption.
Design and screen: more elegance, more detail
In terms of design, MacBook Air still maintains its ultra-thin and compact form factor, but now comes in a new, vibrant blue color that adds a special visual touch to the device. The display is still the same 13.6- and 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display, which delivers impressive detail, high brightness and depth. It's ideal for creative professionals and everyday users alike.
Camera and audio: Extensive video calls and accurate sound
In the era of data security and video calls, a high-quality camera is important. The new model features a 12-megapixel webcam and the Center Stage function, which automatically detects and frames the main subject in the video frame. The audio system has also been improved — new microphones and speakers provide clear and loud sound, which will be especially useful for those who often work on Zoom or FaceTime.
Memory and battery: All day at speed
The new MacBook Air comes standard with 16GB of RAM , which is a big improvement over previous models. It can be expanded to 32GB. As for the battery, Apple claims that the device allows you to use it continuously for 18 hours , which in practice means a full working day without recharging.
Real reviews: What do users and experts say?
Early reviews from tech bloggers and YouTubers have been almost unanimously positive. Popular tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) has emphasized that “ the M4 MacBook Air is the most affordable supercomputer on the market .” Wired and The Verge have also called it “the perfect combination of speed, design, and price.”
However, there is one small drawback worth noting - the lack of ports , which may be considered a disadvantage for professional users who have to connect additional devices in various ways.
Conclusion
The MacBook Air M4 is truly a significant upgrade in both functionality and price. It's a device for those looking for simplicity, high quality, and reliability in a compact package. Whether you're a student, designer, programmer, or office worker, the new MacBook Air M4 is the ideal companion.
