Apple MacBook Air 15.3" Early 2024 Overview

By B&H Photo's
The Space Gray Apple 15" MacBook Air now features the Apple M3 chip, which has many improvements over its predecessor, the M2. Now built on 3nm process technology, the M3 8-Core Chip is combined with a 10-Core GPU. The next-gen GPU features Dynamic Caching, hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and mesh shading, all of which significantly increase performance for the most demanding creative apps and games. The M3 Chip also has a 16-Core Neural Engine that can leverage the power of AI for both macOS and a growing number of supported apps. It also has 16GB of unified RAM and a 256GB SSD. Add Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) and support for two external displays, and this MacBook Air delivers performance, power efficiency, and portability.

This Mac comes preloaded with macOS. Updates can be downloaded for free via the Mac App Store. Please check Apple's website for upgrade eligibility.
Apple M3 8-Core Chip
Now packed with 25 billion transistors, five billion more than M2, the Apple M3 integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and more into a single system on a chip (SoC). Now built with 3nm process technology, the Apple M3 8-core chip features four performance cores and four efficiency cores, which is up to 35 percent faster than M1 for CPU performance. The M3 also supports up to 24GB of unified memory.

With a 10-Core GPU, the M3 features Dynamic Caching, which allocates the use of local memory in hardware in real time. Dynamic Caching only uses the exact amount of memory needed for each task, which dramatically increases the average utilization of the GPU, resulting in significant performance increases for the most demanding pro apps and games. Hardware-accelerated ray tracing has arrived for the MacBook Air.
15.3" Liquid Retina Display
The MacBook Air features the 15.3" Liquid Retina Display, with support for one billion colors. The 2880 x 1864 resolution provides crisp text. The 500-nit brightness and wide P3 color gamut ensure that photos and movies are brilliant and vivid, complete with rich contrast and sharp detail. With True Tone technology, the display delivers a more natural viewing experience for design and editing workflows as well as everyday tasks like browsing the web and writing email.
External Display Support
When it comes to external display support, the MacBook Air with M3 delivers. You can simultaneously use the MacBook Air display and an external display with up to 6K resolution at 60 Hz. Close the MacBook Air lid to use a second external display with up to 5K resolution at 60 Hz.
Compact Design
The MacBook Air lives up to its name, weighing in at just 3.3 pounds and measuring just 0.45" thin. The MacBook Air with M3 is made with 50 percent recycled materials, including a durable 100% recycled aluminum enclosure.

The MacBook Air also features a silent, fanless design.
Magic Keyboard & Touch ID
The Magic Keyboard on this MacBook Air features a scissor mechanism that delivers 1mm of key travel. There's also a physical Esc key and an inverted "T" arrangement for the arrow keys. Combined with the Touch ID, the Magic Keyboard provides a comfortable, accurate typing experience.

The advanced security and convenience of Touch ID is built into the MacBook Air. Simply place your finger on the integrated Touch ID sensor and your MacBook Air unlocks. Use your fingerprint to immediately access locked documents, notes, and system settings. You can also use Apple Pay securely during checkout while online shopping. No need to enter shipping or billing info, and your card details are never shared.
Full HD 1080p FaceTime Camera & Audio
With a Full HD 1080p FaceTime camera, the MacBook Air allows you to look your best during video calls.

The built-in six speakers provide support for Spatial Audio when playing music and Dolby Atmos support when playing videos.

The three-mic array with directional beamforming features Voice Isolation and Wide Spectrum modes to capture clean audio, allowing your voice to come through loud and clear.
