Introduction to the MacBook Air 13 inch M2 Chip
The MacBook Air with M2 chip was announced at WWDC in June 2022, introducing a completely redesigned MacBook Air with a flat-edge chassis, notch display, MagSafe charging, and the new M2 chip — the most significant Air redesign since 2010.
The M2 MacBook Air’s new design was universally praised, with the flat-edge aluminium chassis and notch display earning comparisons to the iPad Pro. The M2 chip’s performance improvements and the addition of MagSafe were particularly celebrated.
The MacBook Air M2 was designed to modernise the MacBook Air’s look and feel with a completely new flat-edge design, bring back MagSafe charging, add a larger display with a notch camera, and deliver meaningful M2 performance improvements.
