Because of its thin and light design, excellent performance, and extended battery life, the MacBook Air is a popular choice for students and casual users. Apple redesigned the Air in 2022 with the M2 chip, but what can we expect from the 2024 model?

Apple has not revealed a specific release date, but reports say the MacBook Air (2024) will be available in March. It will be available in two sizes: 13-inch and 15-inch. The M3, an advance from the M2 chip in the current generation, will likely power both models. However, expect a slight performance improvement – the M3 is most likely an incremental upgrade.
Stay calm for a substantial revamp in 2024. The MacBook Air is expected to retain the current compact and light design. That’s okay, given that the Air is already one of the most visually appealing laptops on the market.

The display is also expected to remain unchanged, which indicates that it will feature an IPS screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600. Some people hoped for an OLED display, but it will unlikely materialize until 2025.
While the 2024 MacBook Air will likely be a minor update, there are a few features we’d like to see.
- More colorful color options:Â The current Air only includes Midnight, Starlight, Space Gray, and Silver. We’d want to see more vibrant hues like those on the iMac and iPad Air.
- More Thunderbolt 4 ports:Â The present Air has only two Thunderbolt 4 ports. We’d like to see Apple include an HDMI connector or an SD card reader for further flexibility.
An OLED display would significantly enhance the MacBook Air, giving it a significant advantage over the MacBook Pro.
- Touch Bar:Â While this appears less likely, some users prefer the Touch Bar’s convenience over traditional function keys.
Overall, the MacBook Air (2024) will be a respectable improvement but expect nothing groundbreaking. If you want a significant update, wait for the 2025 model.
In the meantime, the current MacBook Air (2022) remains an excellent choice. It’s strong, thin, and light, with a long battery life. It is also on sale now that the 2024 model is on the horizon.

Consider using colorful color palettes to paint the Air in hues other than the drab tones. Consider an OLED display that shimmers like sunken jewels. And who knows, the SD card reader you’ve wanted will emerge from the depths.
So, my reader, plot your course with care. If consistent performance and familiar comfort are essential, the 2024 Air is the vehicle for you. But if you’re looking for something different and bold, the 2025 voyage is for you.
This expanded conclusion adds more imagery and metaphor, presenting a picture of the two alternatives – the known but perhaps interesting 2024 Air and the unknown but potentially exciting 2025 model. It also stresses the significance of personal preference and encourages the reader to make an informed decision based on their requirements and preferences.
