What is the MacBook Air?
The updated 2018 MacBook Air is the latest version of Apple’s slimmest notebook. “Every part of the product has been redesigned and reengineered,” said Laura Lagrove, vice president of hardware engineering at Apple, during the Apple event.

The number one feature customers asked for in a MacBook Air and have received in this version is a retina display, Lagrove said. But along with the retina screen, “we’ve made the display better in every way,” she said. The new MacBook Air has a 13.3-inch screen. It doesn’t include the aluminum bezel of the previous version, with the display glass now coming to the edge of the enclosure. The border is 50% narrower.
