Precision aluminium unibody enclosure
The revolutionary, precision aluminium unibody design is inherently strong, and it's part of what allows MacBook Air to weigh only 1.36 kg (3.0 pounds) and to be nearly as thin as your index finger. The unibody also makes MacBook Air amazingly durable. So you can throw it in your bag then pull it out wherever you happen to go without a second thought.

Flat-out faster
The Intel Core 2 Duo processor in MacBook Air was designed to fit within the computer's compact dimensions. Now it delivers speeds not usually found in ultra portable notebooks, thanks to a faster Intel Core 2 Duo running at 1.86GHz or 2.13GHz. And with a 1066MHz front side bus, 2GB of DDR3 memory and 6MB of L2 cache, MacBook Air provides the power for you to be as productive in the air as you are in the office.

A powerful graphics boost
The NVIDIA GeForce 9400M integrated graphics processor brings amazing, high-speed graphics to MacBook Air. With up to 6x the graphics performance of the original model, you'll notice a dramatic improvement in most applications. Photos appear in iPhoto more quickly. Keynote transitions occur seamlessly. Games play more smoothly. And movie and video playback is better than ever. No other ultra portable offers performance as impressive in such a slim design.

A smart LED display
The spacious 13.3" widescreen LED-backlit display provides instant full screen brightness the moment you open MacBook Air. LED technology also makes it more power efficient, which translates to long battery life. And since this display is mercury-free with arsenic-free glass, it's as easy on the environment as it is on the eyes.

Slim battery. Robust performance.
Like everything in MacBook Air, the battery doesn't compromise power for portability. You can access the web wirelessly for up to 5 hours.

Room for everything.
With a 120GB hard drive, MacBook Air provides plenty of room for work, play and whatever happens in between. Or choose the MacBook Air with a 128GB solid-state drive.4 With no moving parts, solid-state drives offer enhanced durability and use less energy.

A touch of brilliance.
MacBook Air includes a large trackpad with Multi-Touch technology. You can pinch, swipe or rotate to adjust an image, zoom in on text or advance through a photo album. Or try out the four-finger swipe, swiping up or down to use Exposé; left or right to switch among active applications.

Thin is in the details.
The innovative now-you-see-it, now-you-don't port hatch flips down to reveal (and closes to hide) all the ports you really need: a headphone jack, a USB 2.0 port and a Mini DisplayPort that supports DVI, dual-link DVI and VGA video output. The Mini DisplayPort connects to the 24" Apple LED Cinema Display, and it supports other displays up to 30".

Without wires, you're free to go anywhere.
With fast 802.11n Wi-Fi5 and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR built in, MacBook Air lets you lead a fully wireless lifestyle. You can wirelessly rent movies from the iTunes Store, back up your drive to Time Capsule, or send photos or documents to the printer from the comfort of your living room couch.
