It would have been nice for Apple to split the USB-C ports and have one on each side, as I often run out of room when I am plugging in multiple items. There’s also a 3.5mm headphone port on the other side. On one side you’ll find two Thunderbolt 3/USB 4 ports, along with the magnetic MagSafe port for charging. It does a better job at hiding fingerprints than the matte Midnight option which is a very dark blue. I have been testing the Starlight option for the past week and the best way to describe it would be a very subtle gold. Space Grey and Silver remain, with new Starlight and Midnight options added. If you were hoping for a MacBook Air available in all the colours of the rainbow, then I am here to disappoint.

That makes it thinner than an iPad Pro with a Magic Keyboard attached, making this Apple’s most portable mobile workstation. It weighs 1.24kg (compared to the 1.6kg MacBook Pro 14-inch) and has a height of just 1.13cm. I have been carrying around a MacBook Pro in my bag for a few months and slipping this in instead reminds me of what makes the Air range so special.

This might not be the thinnest laptop around, but it’s overall thinner than the previous model and is incredibly portable as a result. The new design is sleek and tasteful, and it’s a lot more portable than the thick-in-comparison 14 and 16-inch versions.

That means you’ve got a boxier look than before, with the iconic wedge design (that has been a hallmark of the Air series ever since Steve Jobs initially pulled it out of an envelope on stage) ditched. However, the new MacBook Air M2 (2022) mimics its pricier MacBook Pro 14 and 16 siblings instead of mirroring the iMac. Leaks ahead of the launch had suggested a redesign in the same vein as the 2021 iMac 24-inch, with a wide array of eye-catching hues on offer. I can’t deny that when Apple announced the new MacBook Air M2 (2022) I was a little disappointed.

Four colours, including new additions Midnight and Starlight (pictured).

Fantastic keyboard and large, responsive trackpad.

Upgraded look makes this a smaller version of the new MacBook Pro blueprint.
