These updated versions, now available for order, are set to bring considerable enhancements in performance, thanks to the inclusion of the M3 chip.
Despite no external modifications to the MacBook Air's design, which underwent a major redesign two years prior, the internal upgrades are where these new models shine. The M3 chip, developed on a cutting-edge 3-nanometer process, offers a notable increase in speed and energy efficiency by fitting more transistors into a compact area.
This technological advancement brings significant improvements, including up to 35 percent faster CPU performance and up to 65 percent enhanced GPU performance compared to its M1 predecessor. This makes the M3 MacBook Air a robust choice for a range of tasks from basic computing needs to light gaming, courtesy of its 8-core CPU and up to 10-core GPU configuration.
A key update with the M3 MacBook Air is the added support for dual external displays, a feature that previously was limited to a single monitor in both the M1 and M2 MacBook models. This improvement is aimed at users seeking expanded screen real estate, although it requires the laptop to be in clamshell mode for this functionality. Additionally, the new MacBook Air models boast Wi-Fi 6E capability, offering significantly faster download speeds than those equipped with the M2 chip.
3-Nanometer: M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max are the first chips for a personal computer built using the industry-leading 3-nanometer technology. With a faster, more efficient next-generation GPU, these chips deliver the biggest leap forward in graphics architecture ever for Apple silicon.
