Apple MacBook Air (15.3-Inch, 2023)

More screen! Excellent speakers Long lasting battery Shockingly thin Extra performance is welcome

Only supports one external display

I’m not someone who demands the need for multiple, large monitors to get my work done. I’m content on a 13-inch device and prefer to stay mobile with my work, even if just moving around the house. If you’re like me, you should buy one of the 13-inch...

Bigger, brighter display. Slim and lightweight. Large trackpad. The six-speaker system sounds excellent. 1080p webcam. Great performance for everyday tasks. Nice battery life.

Expensive. Lacks ports. Can't support more than one external display.

Superb battery life ; Silent operation as no fan cooling ; Apple's M2 is a real powerhouse when needed ; Thin and light despite 15.3-inch screen – so still portable

That divisive screen notch ; MagSafe charger cable tangles up ; Do you really need a 15-inch MacBook Air?

The 15-inch MacBook Air's sell is simple: it's a MacBook Air, embodying everything typically slim, light and portable about that, only it's got a bigger screen (and bigger sound as an added bonus). There are no significant compromises in opting for the...

Big, spacious screen in a thin and relatively light chassis Excellent trackpad and keyboard Excellent performance Outstanding battery life

Limited ports Zero options for upgradability or expandability after purchase Thin profile can’t hide the fact that this is a big computer

The Air 15 will get you through a day and then some. You shouldn’t have to worry about it. In fact, you won’t have to worry about much when you’re using this device. It works, it works for a long time away from the wall, and it has a big old screen....

Big screen ; Slimline design ; Surprisingly good price

Same internal specs as a 13-inch model ; Less portable than 13-inch model

The Apple MacBook Air 15-inch (2023) is essentially just a larger MacBook Air 13-inch – and that's both a good and bad thing. It has a stunning design, a brilliant screen, and possibly the best speaker setup you'll find in a laptop. However, the bump...

Solid and premium design ; Excellent large display ; Superb performance ; Promising battery life

No Face ID ; Notch could be annoying ; Bezels could be slimmer

The MacBook Air 15-inch is a truly superb everyday laptop, with a solid and premium build quality, a stunning big display, excellent performance and a great battery life. There's nothing not to love here. It's the everyday laptop dreams were made of.

Ultra-slim chassis ; Lovely Liquid Retina display ; Excellent battery life ; Good performance ; Affordable

Not a lot of ports

The new MacBook Air 15 brings you a big, beautiful Liquid Retina display, excellent speakers and powerful performance in the world's thinnest 15-inch chassis.

Pros: ; – Display, for both, its size and output ; – M2 SoC holds up really well ; – Battery life ; – Phenomenal speakers ; – Amazingly thin and light for its size

– Limited ports ; – Can only support one external display ; – Webcam falls short compared to the rest of the package

As have stated multiple times in the review here, the MacBook Air 15-inch is all the laptop that anyone would need. It is a device that keeps on giving and giving. And even though the M2 SoC is about two years old at this point, it just sits incredibly...

high quality and thin case ;good input devices ;silent operation ;brighter display with P3 and without PWM ;very good speakers ;long battery life at 150 nits ;good system performance ;MagSafe

neither Thunderbolt 4 nor Wi-Fi 6 with 160 MHz; only one external display possible ;PCIe 3.0 SSD only ;power supply too weak ;significant power reduction at high load ;high entry price and expensive upgrades

The new MacBook Air 15 is a very good, but also boring device, because apart from the larger screen and the higher price, there are no differences compared to the smaller
