The MacBook Air 13-inch (M3) is Apple's thin, light fanless laptop, weighing 2.7 lb and measuring under half an inch thick. It pairs the M3 chip (8-core CPU, 8- or 10-core GPU) with a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display at 2560 x 1664, up to 18 hours of movie playback, a 1080p webcam, four speakers with Spatial Audio and Touch ID. It suits students, commuters and office workers who want a quiet, all-day machine for writing, browsing, spreadsheets and light photo or video edits. Against the M2 Air it adds the M3 chip, hardware ray tracing and AV1 decode plus support for two external displays with the lid closed; Windows ultrabooks often offer more ports and touchscreens, while the Air wins on battery life and silence.
