M2 MacBook Air Pre-Order And Launch Date Announced By Apple

Apple’s new M2-powered MacBook Air will be available for pre-order this Friday, July 8 the company has today announced via press release. That means that the machines will be delivered on Friday, July 15 with devices also set to become available in stores at the same time.

The new M2 MacBook Air is a big redesign over the previous model and not only brings a new chip, but a new display and notch as well.

Pricing will start at $1199 for a model with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage with midnight, starlight, silver, and space gray options available.

Completely reimagined around M2, MacBook Air has a new design that is remarkably thin from every angle. With a durable, all-aluminum unibody enclosure that feels incredibly solid and is built to last, it measures just 11.3 millimeters thin, is only 2.7 pounds, and delivers an astonishing 20 percent reduction in volume from the previous generation. And with the power efficiency of M2, all of the capabilities of MacBook Air are built into a silent, fanless design. In addition to silver and space gray, MacBook Air is now available in two stunning new finishes: midnight and starlight.

Apple’s M2 chip is already available as part of the M2 13-inch MacBook Pro, of course, with buyers reporting that the new chip is nice and fast. We can expect much the same from the M2 MacBook Air, with a capable 1080p FaceTime HD camera and four-speaker sound system being backed up by 18 hours of battery life.

The new M2 MacBook Air is sure to be the best Mac for the majority of people, while the M1 MacBook Air remains available for $999.
