Which MacBook is right for you?
The MacBook Air 15-inch is a seriously awesome laptop. The MacBook Air 13 M2 is our current choice for the best laptop on the market, but the new 15-inch version is even better. Plus, this MacBook has six speakers for a more immersive audio experience compared to the 13-inch MacBook Air.
In our MacBook Air 15 review, we said the Editor's Choice laptop delivers solid performance for everyday computing while its 15-inch display is great for watching videos and browsing the web. Toss in exceptional 15-hour battery life and an overall elegant design, and the MacBook Air 15 is a huge winner.
If you're on a very tight budget, the MacBook Air M1 is still a very capable laptop that could still last you for a few years. In our MacBook Air M1 review, we said it offers amazing endurance and shockingly good speed.
Finally, if you want the best value possible, the 13-inch MacBook Air M2 is unbeatable at its full price and an even bigger value at $899. In our MacBook Air M2 review, we said the Editor's Choice laptop offers an unbeatable combo of performance, design, and battery life.
