Make the most of your day. From startup to shutdown
Fourth-generation Intel Core processors in MacBook Air give you more time to do more things. Add that to an array of other smart and efficient features, and you have an incredible amount of power in your hands. While carrying next to nothing. |
Big battery of up to 12 hours
Thanks to compact all-flash storage in MacBook Air, there?s plenty of room for a big battery. Working together with the power-efficient fourth-generation Intel Core architecture, this battery can post some impressive numbers. The 11-inch model gets up to 9 hours of battery life on a single charge and the 13-inch model gets up to 12 hours. That gives you all-day power for surfing the web or watching iTunes movies. Put MacBook Air to sleep for more than 3 hours, and it enters standby mode to conserve battery life for up to 30 days.1 And if you enable Power Nap, you?ll continue to receive new email and calendar invitations while your computer is asleep. |
Fourth-generation Intel Core processors
MacBook Air is powered by fourth-generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors. This ultra-efficient architecture was designed to use less power and still deliver high performance. Which means not only can you do whatever you want ? you can keep doing it for longer than before. In addition, the Intel HD Graphics 5000 processor offers advanced performance you?ll especially notice with games and other graphics-intensive tasks. |
Ultrafast 802.11ac Wi-Fi
MacBook Air supports ultrafast 802.11ac Wi-Fi. When connected to an 802.11ac base station ? includingAirPort Extreme and AirPort Time Capsule ? wireless performance is up to 3x faster than with the previous generation of Wi-Fi or MacBook Air with 802.11n Wi-Fi.2And your Wi-Fi range improves as well. With Bluetooth technology, you can connect MacBook Air to Bluetooth-enabled devices like speakers and headphones. Even without all the wires, you?re totally connected. |
Lightning-fast Thunderbolt port and USB 3
With the lightning-fast Thunderbolt port, you can connect your MacBook Air to the latest devices and displays, like the Apple Thunderbolt Display. But that?s not the whole story. MacBook Air also comes equipped with two USB 3 ports, so you can connect the latest USB 3 devices and all your USB 2 devices as well. With just a few connections, MacBook Air transforms from an ultraportable notebook to a complete workstation.

Multi-Touch gestures in OS X
The Multi-Touch gestures in OS X make everything you do on MacBook Air more intuitive, direct, and fun. And the spacious Multi-Touch trackpad is perfectly designed for them, whether it?s a three-finger swipe to activate Mission Control or a four-finger pinch to see all your apps in Launchpad. Gesture responses are smooth and realistic. So when you?re scrolling up and down a web page or swiping from one full-screen app to another, it?s almost like you?re touching what you?re seeing. |
iCloud
iCloud stores your content and lets you access your music, photos, calendars, contacts, documents, and more from whatever device you?re on. So if you take a picture with your iPhone or make changes to your meeting schedule on your iPad, iCloud makes sure everything appears on your Mac, too. And it works both ways ? create a to-do list on your Mac and you can make edits to it on your iPhone.
