MacBook Air M5 15-inch

The MacBook Air 15-inch (M5, 2026) provides the expansive screen space of a Pro model in the remarkably thin and silent design of an Air. Released in March 2026, it features the new M5 chip, doubling the performance for AI-heavy tasks while maintaining its signature portable form.

Key Highlights

• Powerful M5 Chip: Features a 10-core CPU (4 super cores and 6 efficiency cores) and a 10-core GPU as standard. Each GPU core includes a Neural Accelerator, making AI tasks like image enhancement and video processing up to 4x faster than the M4 model.

• Expansive 15.3-inch Display: The Liquid Retina display offers a 2880 x 1864 resolution with 500 nits of brightness and support for 1 billion colors. It provides a massive workspace for multitasking and creative projects without the weight of a Pro.

• Double the Base Storage: The standard model now starts with 512GB of 2x faster SSD storage, with configurations available up to 4TB for the first time in an Air.

• Superior Six-Speaker Audio: Unlike the 13-inch model, the 15-inch Air features a six-speaker sound system with force-cancelling woofers, providing much deeper bass and a more immersive Spatial Audio experience.

• Next-Gen Wireless: Equipped with the Apple N1 chip, it supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, ensuring the fastest and most stable wireless connections for high-speed downloads.

• All-Day Battery & Silent Operation: Offers up to 18 hours of battery life. Because it uses a fanless thermal design, it remains completely silent even during intense workloads.
