Ultra-portable MacBook Air powered by the M4 with long battery life.
MacBook Air (13-inch, M4, 2025) is Apple’s renewed ultra-portable flagship, built around the efficient M4 chip and a lightweight design. It offers all-day battery life (up to 18 hours reported by Apple), a bright Liquid Retina display, MagSafe charging, and fanless silence for quiet work. The M4 brings stronger CPU/GPU performance, enhanced Neural Engine, and improved AI capabilities within a slim, fanless chassis. This iteration keeps the iconic thin-and-light form factor, introduces Apple Intelligence features, and supports up to two external displays. It's ideal for students, business travelers, and everyday creators who want Mac reliability without a heavier laptop. Compared with prior Intel/ARM generations, it emphasizes energy efficiency and integrated AI tooling, while staying fully compatible with the broader macOS ecosystem.
