2017 MACBOOK AIR RELEASE DATE UPGRADE

The 2018 MacBook Air is only slightly thicker at 0.61 inches, although itвЂ™s considerably heavier by three-quarters of a pound because of its larger 13.3-inch display. In particular, the HP Spectre 13 comes in at 0.41 inches and the 2018 Acer Swift 7 is the thinnest of all at a stunning 0.35 inches. Upon the release of its redesign, the MacBook was the absolute thinnest of its kind at 0.52 inches, though itвЂ™s been bested this year by a number of laptops. When itвЂ™s closed and set on a flat surface, it looks impossibly thin - the angled edges give the appearance that itвЂ™s much thinner than it is. There are some clever design flourishes that help set the MacBook apart from similar competitors. ThereвЂ™s no doubt that this is a luxury device from the moment you first touch it, and itвЂ™s an absolute joy to use. Every inch is engineered to perfection, from the laser-cut speaker grillВ to the silky glass trackpad and the high-gloss sheen applied to the iconic Apple logo on the lid. The 12-inch MacBook is an impeccably crafted laptop. Featuring a 7th-gen Intel Core m3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage space, the new 12-inch MacBook ramped up performance across the board and aimed to give customers more bang for their buck. The 2017 MacBook model was intended to change all that.

2017 MACBOOK AIR RELEASE DATE UPGRADE

The new MacBook was a looker, but its high price and low performance pushed customers toward more cost-effective competitors, including the MacBook Air that just received an upgrade (in both components and pricing) in October 2018. In early 2016, Mac sales saw its first year-over-year decline in 15 years. In 2015, the MacBook was brought back with a controversial redesign - and sales took a hit. The multi-colored, polycarbonate MacBook was once the popular choice for years, before it was replaced by the thin, unibody MacBook Air back in 2011. ItвЂ™s been a tough couple of years for the entry-level MacBook.
