New generation MacBook Air notebooks were unveiled earlier this month. The highlight of the new generation Airs is the battery life, with the 11-inch models capable of up to 9 hours backup, and the 13-inch MacBook Airs boasting an incredible 12 hours of battery life.
All models are now powered by fourth-generation 1.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 2.6GHz) with 3MB shared L3 cache alongside 4GB RAM, and boast dual-microphones and faster 802.11ac Wi-Fi for improved performance. Two USB 3.0 ports and 1 Thunderbolt port are included in all variants, with the 13-inch MacBook Airs also coming with a SDXC card slot.
The 11-inch MacBook Air with 128GB SSD storage (an improvement on the 64GB of its predecessor) is priced at Rs. 67,900 and Rs. 81,900 for the model with 256GB storage. The 13-inch MacBook Air with 128GB storage is available for Rs. 74,900 and Rs. 88,900 for the 256GB one.
