Extremely thin and light, sturdy build quality, very good display, comfortable keyboard, excellent trackpad, good battery life, quick startup time, respectable performance despite slow processor
No backlight for keyboard, no external battery status indicator, speakers could have been bit louder, 64GB on base model is too less, 128GB model is too expensive
The 64GB MacBook Air is priced at Rs. 60,900 (MRP). Now it might seem that the price is a bit on the higher side, but as we found out during the review, you do actually get what you pay for. Let's face it; you will be hard pressed to find a machine tha...
Older Core 2 Duo processor, No ethernet, card slot

Abstract: The new 11-inch Air is undeniably gorgeous and will win many people over purely for its looks, but is sadly just a bit too underpowered to be recommended wholeheartedly.

Amazingly slim design; great keyboard/trackpad combo; new iLife '11 software included; decent graphics performance; 16:9 display.
Pricey for an 11-inch laptop with an older processor; lacks backlit keyboard and SD card slot.
Very slim and light, Large multitouch touchpad, Shell nicely finished, HDReady screen (1366 x 768)
Glossy panel, Very reduced interface connectivity
The Macbook Air is an ultra-portable with a good power/size ratio. Note however that if size is not a decisive factor in your choice, the MacBook Pro offers better battery life and much better performance. ...
Extremely slim and portable, Well built and elegantly designed, Fun to use, Good display
Poor port selection, Mediocre performance, Expensive
The 11-inch Apple MacBook Air is remarkably thin and really enjoyable to use. But its paltry port selection and lack of real grunt mean it won't appeal to everyone....
Build, design, powerful for its size, great screen, exemplary keyboard
Price, inevitably lacks connections, no battery indicator
The MacBook Air isn’t about affordability, it’s about making a statement, it’s about travelling light without having to sacrifice power and design. It won’t suit every taste and the lack of optical drive and connections will make the MacBook Air imprac...
To A Comprehensive ReviewTaking in to account the number of considerations that have to be made when creating a product such as the MacBook Air, it’s incredible to think that so much has been packed in to such a small enclosure. When you use the new A...
