Review: Apple MacBook Air 13

Apple MacBook Air 13

This laptop is ideal for travel due to its light weight form and it is not heavy like other Apple models like Mac book Pro or Power book 170.

Features: It has been designed carefully for ultra portability weighing only 2.8 lbs. It has an Intel core processor and is priced 1300 dollars. (base price)

Air 13 is Ultra slim but not rich

Anyone who first sees this laptop will surely be impressed, by its ultra slim beauty. The functions are quite good and silent. You can switch it on in just 10 seconds because of the SSD software. You will literally find no difference at all between this model and a traditional desktop. While comparing it on the aspect of performance Air 13 is little low.

The Air 13 has extended battery life for about six hours if you use it stringently. Hence you can conveniently play non stop game when you are traveling from New York to Los Angels in Air 13. Its speed is very impressive for this range of size and processor.

You will openly admit that this Air 13 is the thinnest piece of laptop if you happen to take this on your hand.

It contains 2 USB ports, with one port on each of its side. However, it does not contain Ethernet port and FireWire. It also has a web camera in built, a headphone and a microphone jack. And remember this; it does not include an optical drive which may upset the DVD users.

It does not have more storage

Mac book models of laptop with 11 inches have only 64 GB storage capacity, and its 13 inch sized laptop have 128 GB which may not be enough for many users. In this model, you do not have more storage and hence you cannot do any big task. Hence, this Air 13 is ideal for watching videos and browsing net.

For whom Air 13 is most suited

If you prefer only Mac book but with less weight then this is for you. This is not suited for browsers who do hours of surfing relaxing on the couch. It can be an alternative for Mac book Pro if you are going to use only for watching movie and viewing photos.

You have to pay more if you want more storage. Hence, I paid $1800 for 256GB storage with 4GB drive for memory for buying a Sony model. So, it cannot be liberally used as a laptop full time. It has to be preserved for some special occasions only.

Good: Extremely thin body makes this laptop well suited for your travel. The quality of contrast is very good and it has an extended battery life.

Bad: This model is not suited for high powered jobs. It does not have an optical drive and has only 2 USB panels in it.

Conclusion

This model of Air 13 from Mac book is meant only for persons who give more preference to light weight than any other thing.
