Design

With dimensions of 11.97 x 8.36 x 0.63 inches, it features the same iconic wedge form as prior MacBook Air models and Apple’s signature aluminum structure.

The 13.3-inch Retina display, a Trackpad, the power button, and more are all wrapped up in an ultraportable laptop’s gorgeous and slim form.

A 720p FaceTime HD camera and a three microphone array are also located at the top of the Apple MacBook Air (2020) display.

The substantially redesigned keyboard is one of the most noticeable changes in the Macbook Air (2020). Apple has introduced the Magic Keyboard design with new functions in the Macbook Air, similar to the MacBook Pro last year (2020).

This keyboard provides a pleasant typing experience with its inverted-T arrow key layout and up to 1mm of key travel for a sturdy key feel.

Similarly, Apple’s revised scissor key switch mechanism, which promises a better experience than the Butterfly mechanism, is included on the Apple Macbook Air (2020).
