Our take on the MacBook Air 13" (M5)

The MacBook Air 13" (M5) is Apple's thin fanless laptop, now built around the M5 chip with a 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine. It keeps the 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone, a 12MP Center Stage camera, MagSafe 3 charging, two Thunderbolt 4 ports and support for up to two external displays. The Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Force Touch trackpad round it out. It suits students, office workers and frequent travelers who want quiet, all-day portable performance; against the MacBook Pro it gives up the Pro's active cooling, mini-LED screen and extra ports, but it is lighter and silent.

Questions and answers

Is the M5 MacBook Air worth it over the M4 model?
If you already own an M-series Air, the jump is modest for everyday tasks. Buyers coming from Intel Macs or older models get a larger performance and efficiency gain.
Can the MacBook Air M5 run two external displays?
Yes. It supports up to two external displays, a step up from earlier Air models that were limited to one.
Does the MacBook Air M5 have a fan?
No. It is fanless, so it runs silent, but it throttles under long sustained heavy loads.
What is in the box?
The 13-inch MacBook Air, a 2m USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable and a USB-C power adapter.
How does it compare with the MacBook Pro?
The Air is lighter and silent but gives up the Pro's active cooling, mini-LED display and extra ports. The Pro suits sustained heavy work; the Air suits everyday portable use.
Does it have Touch ID?
Yes. The Magic Keyboard includes Touch ID for logins and purchases, but there is no Face ID.
Where is the MacBook Air 13" (M5) cheapest?
