M4 MacBook Air Review (13-Inch, 2025): Still My Go-To Recommendation for Most People

• Big performance gains from M1, Intel MacBook Airs
• Great design, features
• Support for two external displays simultaneously with MacBook display
• 12-megapixel Center Stage camera

• 256GB SSD might fill up fast
• Expensive upgrades

What continues to amaze me about the M-series MacBook Airs is that they crank out high-level performance and long battery life, yet the body is completely fanless. What's even more incredible is that the performance gets better year after year. So, while not too much has changed from the last-gen M3 MacBook Air, for the M4 Air, you'll still get a lot of computing power and upwards of 15 hours of battery life in a thin, light and quiet body. And now it comes in a light metallic blue.
