If I am buying laptops in bulk in 2018, this laptop just became my go-to machine. To recap, it comes in a 13-inch screen size, has a large trackpad (Apple has the best laptop trackpads, and you’ll never convince me otherwise), 2 USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 ports, the 2018 keyboard, Touch ID, T2 chip, and a Retina screen.Īs someone who buys laptops in bulk, I often tend to think about everything with Apple at scale. It’ll fly off the shelves for college students and enterprise buyers.
The new MacBook Air is now the Mac I recommend to most people. In short, the Retina MacBook Air was a exactly what I wanted them to announce. That event has come and gone, and I’ve gotten no less than 10 Twitter DMs and many iMessages from friends asking “Is the MacBook Air a good laptop?”.
Last week, I wrote an article about the laptop I hoped Apple would announce at their October event.
