Apple just announced its latest generation of the MacBook Air, this time powered by an M4 chip, and is $100 cheaper than last time! Those will likely be appreciated updates for buyers in the market for a new Mac, but when compared to Microsoft’s latest offering in the same category, the new MacBook Air doesn’t seem as great.
The Surface Laptop 7 launched in June 2024, and we heralded it as the best Windows laptop, period. It’s pretty much perfect, from the excellent haptic trackpad and large 120Hz touchscreen display to the brilliant Snapdragon X SoC powering things under the hood, delivering all day battery life and incredible performance with few compatibility issues.
