Our take on the Apple 15" MacBook Air (M4 Chip / 16GB RAM / 512GB SSD)
The 15-inch MacBook Air with the M4 chip is Apple's largest fanless laptop, paired with 16GB of unified memory and a 512GB SSD. It is built for everyday multitasking, office work, coding and light creative work, with a big screen in a body that stays thin and silent. Against the 13-inch Air it offers more screen for the same chip, and against the MacBook Pro it gives up the Pro's mini-LED display and active cooling. Reviewers consistently rate the Air line for battery life, quiet operation and build quality.

- M4 chip handles everyday work and light editing smoothly
- 16GB memory and 512GB storage suit multitasking and local files

Questions and answers
- Is the M4 a big upgrade over the M1 or M2 Air?
- Yes for heavy multitaskers and anyone coming from an Intel Mac. From an M2 Air the gains are more modest and mostly felt in demanding apps.
- Can I upgrade the RAM or storage later?
- No. The memory and SSD are soldered, so choose the configuration you need at purchase.
- How does it compare with the 13-inch MacBook Air?
- Same chip and design language, but the 15-inch gives you a larger screen and louder speakers at the cost of some portability.
- Does it have a fan?
- No. It is fanless, so it runs silent but throttles under long sustained heavy loads.
- What is in the box?
- The laptop and a USB-C charging cable; the power adapter is sold separately on some configurations.
- Is it good for video editing?
- Fine for short clips and light editing. Long 4K exports will slow down because there is no active cooling.
