Apple MacBook Air M3 review: small upgrades

 

Not much has changed from the Apple MacBook Air M2 to the M3. It's faster and can drive two displays with the lid closed, but the MacBook lineup is more convoluted than ever.

Correction April 3, 2024, 11:45am ET: The benchmark chart for this article has been updated to correct transposition errors. The Verge regrets the errors.

Apple Macbook Air 13 Inch 2024

 

This machine delivers the same sleek design and portability, with a mightier M3 processor. But is it worth the upgrade?

Great performance for everyday tasks. Bright display. Solid battery life. Lightweight. Supports two external displays. Comes with Wi-Fi 6E. Midnight color with anodization seal to reduce fingerprints.

Lacks ports. Base memory should be increased. Dual external display support works only when the Air is closed.

MacBook Air 13-inch (M3) review: Seeking portable perfection

 

The MacBook Air 13-inch M3 is a powerful leap forward

Outstanding battery life ; Strong performance ; Bright Liquid Retina display ; Comfortable keyboard ; Improved SSD speeds

Limited ports ; Display not as colorful as competitors

The MacBook Air 13-inch M3 doesn't tweak the formula, but it manages to level up performance and battery life to a degree that will remain difficult for others to match.

Apple MacBook Air 13 M3 review - A lot faster and with Wi-Fi 6E

 

We tested the new MacBook Air M3 with a faster 10-core graphics card, Wi-Fi 6E and 16 GB RAM. The MacBook Air M2 was presented 1.5 years ago and at the time, Apple unveiled an entirely new design. In the meantime, the series has been extended by a...

M3 MacBook Air (2024) review: Benchmark results of Apple's AI laptop may surprise you

 

Apple's best-selling laptop takes a leap forward with the M3 chip, a boost to AI, and support for two external monitors to entice more pros.

"Pro" enough for lots of professional users ; Form factor sets a high bar in style and substance ; Supports two external monitors with the lid closed ; Upgraded neural engine for faster AI tasks

LCD display lags behind OLED competitors ; 8GB of RAM on base model limits its uses ; Limited to two expansion ports, both on one side ; Built-in audio could be much stronger

Need a large tablet? Here are 4 reasons I love big slates like the 13-inch iPad Air

 

It turns out that bigger really might be better, at least when it comes to the iPad Air. Here's why I'm all-in on a 13-inch tablet.

Large and vibrant Liquid Retina display ; Punchy stereo speakers ; Seamless Apple connection

Could be brighter outdoors ; Stage Manager is still tricky ; Expensive accessories

Apple MacBook Air 13in (M3, 2024) review: still flying high but the airs not so fresh

 

The MacBook Air continues to be the best MacBook for most people, but iterative changes make this the most underwhelming update yet

If you want a thin and lightweight laptop for on the move, the MacBook air is incredibly svelte with a fanless design ; You want the very latest in processor technology, even if gains aren’t as significant as previous jumps ; If you do a lot of...
