    Why does this story matter?

    Apple had introduced the M2-powered MacBooks at WWDC 2022. After a mixed response from the critics for the new MacBook Pro, the company is placing its hopes on the Air model. The device is pricier than the previous-generation MacBook Air. But it comes with a remarkably thin body and offers a brighter and larger display with narrower bezels. It can easily handle routine tasks.

    The laptop has an all-aluminium body

    The MacBook Air M2 has a thin aluminium chassis and a webcam housed in the top bezel. The device boasts a 13.6-inch WQXGA+ (1664x2560 pixels) Liquid Retina display with True Tone technology and 500-nits of maximum brightness. It is offered in Midnight, Starlight, Space Gray, and Silver colors. Dimensions-wise, the laptop measures 11.3mm in thickness and weighs 1.24kg.

    The device supports 67W fast-charging

    The MacBook Air M2 draws fuel from an Apple M2 chipset, paired with up to 24GB of RAM and up to 2TB of SSD storage.

The laptop has a four-speaker setup and a 1080p FaceTime HD camera.

    MacBook Air M2: Pricing and availability

    The MacBook Air M2 starts at Rs. 1,19,900 for its 8GB/256GB base configuration and goes up to Rs. 2,49,900 for the top-end 24GB/2TB model. The laptop is available via Apple's online store as well as leading online and offline partner resellers.

    7/7

    Should you buy the MacBook Pro M2?

    With better speakers, a significantly improved webcam, a better keyboard and trackpad, more convenient charging, excellent build quality, and a thinner display, the M2-powered MacBook Air outperforms the previous generation model. It could even be a better choice over the new MacBook Pro 13-inch.
