While most laptop buyers in India may be thinking about how the M1 chip makes all the difference on the new MacBook Air, there’s now an upgrade. Enter the M2 chip. Apple claims the new M2 chip-powered MacBook Air is way faster and more capable than the M1-powered MacBook. So, if you may be still thinking of buying an Intel-powered MacBook Air to save money then hold onto that thought.
Also, the M2 chip-powered MacBook Air looks more like the newer MacBook Pro. You get the notch display and MagSafe charging port while the design is identical to the Pro version. It goes without saying that the M2 chip will make a huge difference in performance but in case, if you feel that the M1 chip is just enough for you then the good news is that Apple will continue to sell the M1 version as well.
