Apple has announced a new MacBook Air that features the M3 chip that made its debut in the MacBook Pro and iMac last year. Available in 13- and 15-inch sizes, this is Apple’s most affordable notebook - and, we’re told, “the best consumer laptop for AI”.
The new MacBook Airs retain the design of the previous M2 models, but get a performance boost thanks to the inclusion of that M3 chip. The entry-level 13-inch model has an 8‑core CPU, 8‑core GPU and 16‑core Neural Engine, while all the 15-inch models have an 8‑core CPU, 10‑core GPU and 16‑core Neural Engine (you can also spec the more powerful GPU in the 13-inch model if you wish).
