Background
The 2025 M4 MacBook Air is essentially a spec bump over the previous model, sporting nearly identical industrial design as the 2024 M3 MacBook Air. Starting now back down at $999 USD, it's available in Starlight, Silver, Midnight, or a new color—Sky Blue.
The 2025 MacBook Air is updated with new M4 chips (gaining two more processor cores over M3), 16 GB base RAM, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, an updated 12 MP Center Stage webcam, Thunderbolt 4, and a slightly larger battery.
Identification
The laptop has a MagSafe port and two Thunderbolt ports on the left edge, and a headphone jack on the right edge. There's a "notch" on the top edge of the display for the camera, and a Touch-ID/power button on the top right corner of the keyboard.
