NEW YORK—The wait is over: Apple on Tuesday unveiled a revamped MacBook Air at an event in Brooklyn, New York.
The updated notebook is still called the MacBook Air and still features a 13.3-inch display, but the bezels surrounding that screen are dramatically smaller, and in general the chassis appears to more closely resemble Apple’s 12-inch MacBook. Apple says the display contains “over 4 million pixels” and “48% more color” compared to the prior (and admittedly very dated) MacBook Air. There’s an “HD” front-facing camera above the display.
There’s no Touch Bar on the new MacBook Air, but there is Touch ID functionality for signing into the laptop more quickly. There are two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the notebook’s side.
