Apple’s M1 MacBook Air is one of the best laptops to buy. Priced at $999, the base model packs a 13.3-inch (2560 x 1600) IPS Retina display, 8GB of RAM, and 256 GB SSD. In our MacBook Air with M1 review, we commended the laptop’s breathtaking performance and slim, unibody design. We were also blown away by its battery performance which lasted 14 hours and 41 minutes during testing. We gave the MacBook Air M1 a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and the Editor’s Choice award.

Weighing in at 12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches and 2.8 pounds, the MacBook Air M1 is as portable as the competition. It’s on par with the weight of the Dell XPS 13 (11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches, 2.8 pounds), and 13.5-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 (12.1 x 8.8 x 0.6 inches, 2.9 pounds). As for ports, the MacBook Air affords you two Thunderbolt 3 ports and a headphone jack. We recommend a USB-Type C hub if you need more ports.
