The 15.3-inch MacBook Air with the M5 chip is Apple's big-screen thin-and-light, now with a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, 16GB of unified memory and a 1TB SSD. It stays fanless and quiet, weighs about 3.3 pounds, and pairs a 2880x1864 Liquid Retina display at 500 nits with up to 18 hours of rated battery life. Against the 13-inch Air it gives you a much larger screen for a modest weight gain; against the MacBook Pro it trades the Pro's mini-LED 120Hz display and active cooling for silence and lower weight. It suits writers, students and general users who want screen space more than sustained heavy-load performance.

Complaints focus on the two-port layout, the lack of a high-refresh display, and slowdowns during long exports or other sustained heavy work.
