The name MacBook Air 15-inch sounds like a contradiction, right? Apple’s ‘Air’ line should be floaty-light and surely that’s not going to be achievable in a larger form factor? Wrong! The MacBook Air is the thinnest, lightest 15-inch laptop on the market, giving it some serious kudos.
This MacBook Air’s 15.3-inch screen – notice it’s not 15.6-inch, that’d be bumping elbows too closely with the MacBook Pro 16-inch – means it’s still fairly portable, while embodying the goodness of Apple’s M2 silicon in a fanless (and therefore silent) design.
But that raises the question: is the 15-inch MacBook in 2023 literally just a larger version of the 13-inch model from 2022 then? Well, it’s not far off but there are some additional points of difference, the vast majority of which are positive.
Really, that’s the only downside: the 15-inch MacBook is a little thicker and heavier than the 13-inch model but barely – it’s literally 270g heavier and just 0.2mm thicker.
And, naturally, you’ll have to shell out quite
