Review: 15-inch MacBook Air

Price: £1,399 from fave.co/43e57Ae

Last summer when I reviewed the 13-inch M2 MacBook Air, I wrote, “For most of us, the new M2 MacBook Air is all the laptop we’ll ever need.” Well it’s a year later, and Apple has given those who prefer larger laptops what they want: the same thing, only bigger.

This could be a shamelessly short review. It would be entirely accurate to say this 15-inch MacBook Air is exactly like the 13-inch MacBook Air introduced last year, only with a bigger display (and thus chassis) and better speakers. That’s it. Review over.

But seriously, if you have some idea of the 13-inch M2 MacBook Air, you know what to expect here. The M2everyday computing in a thin-and-light laptop. The display is bright sharp and colourful, but lacks ProMotion or HDR. The ports are the same. Battery life is excellent. Even the price is reasonable (for Apple), starting at £1,399. (Our review configuration has 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, which puts the price at £1,799.)
