The 15-inch MacBook Air has just been on the market not long ago. It adds a new product line to Apple’s MacBook. It has a thickness of 11.5mm and an M2 processor, which is also its biggest highlight.

This MacBook is only 11.5mm thick, making it the world’s thinnest 15-inch notebook. The weight is 3.3 pounds (about 1.5kg). In terms of ports, it includes MagSafe and comes with two Thunderbolt 4 ports. In terms of screen, it is equipped with a Liquid Retina screen, which adopts a 5mm narrow frame design and has a very high screen-to-body ratio. The peak brightness of the screen can reach 500nit, supports 1 billion colors, and has an excellent display effect.

In a recent interview, Laura Metz and Thomas Tan of Apple’s Mac product marketing team revealed to reporters some of the little-known stories that happened during their development.

According to Metz, Apple originally thought about continuing to use Intel processors, but it turned out to be unfeasible. In other words, if you want to use Intel processors, you can’t make MacBook Air, at most you can only make MacBook.

Metz further pointed out that the unification of engineering goals such as large screen, long battery life, thinness, and no fan cooling can only be achieved by using Apple Silicon, which is the Apple M-series processor. It is worth noting that Apple’s Mac product line has completely abandoned Intel, and they have fully begun to develop their own processors.
