The display has an edge-to-edge design and comes with thin bezels when compared to other laptops. There is one notch on the top-center of the display that houses the 1080p webcam.

Hardware

The most significant change in this new MacBook Air is the addition of Apple’s new M3 Processor. The new processor, as per Apple’s claims, is capable of performing hardware-accelerated mesh shading and ray tracing, alongside optimized video streaming and playback efficiency with an AV1 decode engine. The processor comes with 4x performance and 4x efficiency cores.

Alongside the CPU, the GPU of the MacBook Air also increases the effective usage of the laptop. The GPU comes in either 8 or 10-core configuration and can now run graphics-heavy processes like games, and photo/video editing tasks faster when compared to its predecessor.

Also, the laptop can now connect to up to two 6K external displays when the lid is closed. If the lid is open, the laptop will project to only one display. The laptop now supports Wi-Fi 6E.

Memory-wise, the base model variant of the laptop comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of non-upgradable memory. The MacBook Air 13-inch with M3 processor can be customized for up to 24GB of RAM and 2TB of storage configuration.
