Lookup MacBook Air MacBook Air 13-inch

MacBook Air (M2, 2022)

Don’t take it lightly.

The 2022 MacBook Air came with a brand new design and many improvements over the previous generations. Thinner and lighter, an improved screen and a battery life that would last all day are just some of the changes. However, the MacBook Air seems to be no longer seen as the bottom of the product line and instead a different option. The price reflected this shift in the product lineup.
