Is the 2015 MacBook Air still worth buying?

For basic web, email and writing, yes, if you accept the older screen and 4 GB of RAM. For photo editing, many browser tabs or modern apps, a newer Air is a better fit.

Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?

No. The memory is soldered to the logic board, and the SSD uses a proprietary connector, so buy the capacity you need up front.

How does it compare with the Retina MacBook?

The Air has a lower-resolution screen and an older processor but much longer battery life and a lower weight than the 12-inch Retina MacBook.

A refurbished unit, a charger and a power cable. The box may be generic and accessories may not be Apple-branded.

Does it have USB-C or Thunderbolt 3?

No. It has two USB 3 ports, a Thunderbolt 2 port, an SDXC card slot, a headphone jack and a MagSafe 2 power port.

What macOS version does it run?

It ships with OS X Yosemite and can be updated to macOS Monterey, the last release that supports this model.
