8-core CPU Devours tasks. Sips battery
M1 has the fastest CPU weve ever made. With that kind of processing speed, MacBook Air can take on new extraordinarily intensive tasks like professional-quality editing and action-packed gaming. But the 8core CPU on M1 isnt just up to 3.5x faster than the previous generation it balances high-performance cores with efficiency cores that can still crush everyday jobs while using just a tenth of the power.
The power of macOS Monterey on M1
macOS Monterey unlocks the potential of the M1 chip and transforms Mac with all-new ways to work and play. Connect, share, and create like never before using FaceTime and Messages. Explore the web on the streamlined Safari, the fastest browser in the world. And work across Mac and your other Apple devices with Universal Control. macOS Monterey also includes industry-leading privacy features and bestinclass security.
Retina display
Images take on new levels of detail and realism on the brilliant 13.3inch, 2560by1600-resolution Retina display. The text is sharp and clear. The colours are more vibrant than ever. And the glass goes right to the edge of the enclosure, so nothing takes away from your gorgeous view.
Camera and mics
The image signal processor in the M1 chip helps you look your best for every FaceTime call and video conference. Three builtin microphones make sure what you say gets heard whether youre on a call, dictating a note, or asking Siri about the weather.
