All things told, the 11in MacBook Air is a capable, compact all-rounder. So capable, in fact, that it makes a far better buy than the $1,799 MacBook. It's just as long-lasting, ostensibly just as portable, and the extra CPU grunt and improved connectivity...

In June 2017 Apple updated the processor on its 13in MacBook Air from 1.6GHz to 1.8GHz - not a massive improvement as the processor is the same generation as the MacBook Air used when it was last significantly updated in 2015 - but the MacBook Air remains...

There's a sense of deja vu as you approach Apple's 2017 MacBook.It still sports a super-skinny wedge design that suggests Apple won't be satisfied until its laptops are thin enough to be used as weapons by ninja.It's still ridiculously light: 920g – or ro...

New machine, same chassis. Apple's reluctance to give the MacBook Air a Retina display is wearing thin, and it's causing buyers to look at alternatives – even defecting to Windows in some cases. Its lack of personality is compounded by poor speakers, an u...
