Our take on the Apple CTO MacBook Air 15" with M5 Chip

The 15-inch MacBook Air with Apple's M5 chip is a thin, light big-screen laptop: 1.23 kg, under 1.15 cm thick, with a recycled aluminum body. This configuration pairs a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU with 24 GB of memory and a 512 GB SSD, aimed at people who multitask across many windows and run demanding apps like Adobe Creative Cloud or Microsoft 365 Copilot. Its edge over thinner 13-inch rivals is screen space without much weight gain; against Windows ultrabooks it trades upgradeability and port variety for silence, battery life and macOS. Owners of earlier Airs consistently praise the fanless quiet and all-day battery, while critics note the 60 Hz panel and limited ports.

Questions and answers

Is the M5 MacBook Air 15 good for video editing and Adobe apps?
Yes for most editing and Creative Cloud work. The 10-core CPU and GPU with 24 GB of memory handle timelines and photo work smoothly, though long 4K exports can slow because there is no fan.
How does it compare with the 13-inch MacBook Air?
Same chip and design language, but the 15-inch gives more screen for side-by-side windows at a slightly higher weight. Choose the 13-inch if you want the smallest bag footprint.
Can I upgrade the memory or storage later?
No. The 24 GB of memory and 512 GB SSD are soldered, so pick the configuration you need when you buy.
Does it have a fan?
No. The MacBook Air is fanless, so it is silent, but very long sustained workloads may run slower than a fan-cooled MacBook Pro.
What comes in the box?
The laptop and a color-matched MagSafe charging cable. The power adapter is sold separately on some configurations, so check before ordering.
How many external monitors can it drive?
With the lid closed it supports up to two external displays; with the lid open it drives one. Plan for a hub if you use more than one screen.
