The wait is over—the newest Apple 13-inch MacBook Air has finally been integrated with the coveted Retina Display. Now with over 4 million pixels, this MacBook Air iteration features a maximum screen resolution of 2560x1600, an aspect ratio of 16:10, and 227 pixels per inch (PPI). Users get 48% more color and narrower bezels for a wider, more vibrant screen. Aside from the upgraded screen, it also features Apple’s newest keyboard design, an integrated Touch ID sensor for fingerprint login and secure Apple Pay purchases, and the industry-leading Force Touch trackpad—which is 20% larger than the previous MacBook Air trackpad for an enhanced touch navigation experience. Designed to be even thinner and more lightweight than ever before, this new Apple notebook laptop is a quarter pound lighter at 2.75 pounds and approximately 10% thinner, measuring only 0.61 inches at its thickest point. The system is powered by a dual-core 8th Generation Intel Core i5 Processor, 8GB of onboard RAM, and your choice of 128GB or 256GB SSD. Other features include improved stereo speakers, an HD FaceTime front camera, and dual Thunderbolt 3 ports. The new MacBook Air laptop comes in three colors: silver, gold, and space gray.
