The MacBook Air with 13.3-inch screen--light, thin, and strong enough to take with you wherever you go (view larger).

This version of the MacBook Air (model MC966LL/A) sports a 13.3-inch high-resolution display, 1.7 GHz Intel Core i5 dual-core processor, 256 GB of flash memory storage, 4 GB of RAM, an Intel HD Graphics 3000 integrated graphics processor, and an SD card slot (see full specifications below). It also comes with the iLife software suite, which includes the latest versions of iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand.

OS X Lion

Every Mac comes with OS X Lion, the latest release of the world's most advanced desktop operating system. With over 250 features including Multi-Touch gestures, Mission Control, full-screen apps, and Launchpad, OS X Lion takes the Mac further than ever.

OS X Lion
Key OS X Lion Features
  • Mission Control provides a bird's-eye view of everything running on your Mac.
  • Launchpad puts all your apps front and center for easy access.
  • View apps full screen and switch between them with a swipe.
  • Interact with your Mac using intuitive new Multi-Touch gestures.

Key Features

Flash Memory Storage

By replacing the standard spinning hard drive typically found in laptops (as well as desktop PCs) with flash memory, the MacBook Air delivers an almost instantaneous boot-up when you open the display, as well as faster application launches and snappier overall performance. Additionally, Apple has shed the enclosure that typically surrounds flash memory (usually about the same size as a standard hard drive), thus giving it a smaller footprint and helping to decrease the size of the MacBook Air.

Revolutionary Thunderbolt Technology

Developed by Intel with collaboration from Apple, high-speed Thunderbolt I/O (input/output) technology delivers an amazing 10 gigabits per second of transfer speeds in both directions. Built into the MacBook Air, the Thunderbolt port allows you to connect to new Thunderbolt-compatible peripherals as well as existing USB and FireWire peripherals using simple adapters. You'll be able to move data up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and more than 12 times faster than with FireWire 800, and you can daisy-chain up to six high-speed devices without using a hub. Thunderbolt also supports DisplayPort for high resolution displays and works with existing adapters for HDMI, DVI, and VGA displays.

Glass Multi-Touch Trackpad and Backlit Keyboard

With the smooth, glass Multi-Touch trackpad, the MacBook Air makes it easy to navigate OS X Lion and your software applications. You can pinch, swipe or rotate images on the display screen with the brush of two fingers, or add more digits for a four-fingered vertical swipe to open Expose and quickly glance at all of your open windows.

Spacious, full-sized keyboard with backlighting (view larger).

In spite of its compact size, the MacBook Air has a full-size keyboard for comfortable, natural typing, and it's backlit so you can keep typing in even the dimmest light.

Integrated FaceTime Webcam

You'll be able to easily connect with friends, family, and business colleagues using the MacBook Air's FaceTime camera, which is integrated into the thin bezel above the display. And with Apple's FaceTime application, you're not limited to video chats with other Macs--you can now make video calls to iPhone and iPod touch users (Wi-Fi connection required for mobile users).

Best Macbook to date : Apple MacBook Air MC966LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop (NEWEST VERSION)


Background:
For the past two years or so I've gone through numerous brands/models in an incessant quest to find a laptop that was legitimately transportable and had sufficient horsepower to match or exceed the carrying out of a solid $500 desktop with sufficient battery life to last over four hours of real world use. In this time span I've gone through over a dozen laptops or netbooks that were ultimately returned, sold, donated to family or friends, modded and repurposed, or are currently sitting collecting dust awaiting a similar fate. A short list of the more memorable laptops/netbooks that I've previously owned/used that I can remember off hand include: Hp Tm2T(Core 2 Duo); Hp Tm2T(Core i3), Asus T101Mt, MacBook Air (2009), Acer 4820Tg, Hp Envy 14, Hp dv7t Quad Edition, Asus U36Jc, MacBook Pro 13, and two lower cost laptop models made by Gateway and Acer that I won't mention because they legitimately didn't fit the criteria I was seeing for when I acquired them.

I can truly say the 2011 MacBook Air 13" is the most satisfied I've been with any laptop I've used. Although I do find some quirks with the 2011 Mba lineup they are passable and this product still deserves a full five stars. I will probably echo some of the same pros and cons that others have stated, but let's move on with my impart so I can tell you my impressions of this.


Hardware Pros:
- Weight/Form Factor: I've always thought about portability to be prominent in a laptop but I can't emphasize this enough. If you've never held and used a MacBook Air before you should be impressed by its weight and form factor alone. Mostly anything could legitimately hold the 13" MacBook with one hand. It means I can be watching a video and if I need to move to another room in the house and can legitimately walk with the laptop in one hand. However, I don't think it is light/comfortable sufficient to hold while standing for prolonged periods of time. I've demonstrated how light it is to any habitancy under 5 feet tall by stand and watch a YouTube video holding the Mba with one. So, if you're concerned about the 13" size because you're short you shouldn't let that deter you until you legitimately try it.

- Core i5 2nd Generation Sandy Bridge Processor/ 4Gb Ram Standard: When I first got the 2009 Mba I was very impressed by its form factor and weight as stated above, but after trying to use the 2009 Mba for productivity and multitasking you comprehend that something is amiss in the hardware and this ultimately leads to frustration. The 2009 and 2010 MacBook Air base models only included 2Gb of Ram and missed an entire generation of Core i-series processors, and despite having a solid state hard drive and a dedicated graphics card their of value in price to carrying out was very underwhelming compared to what was ready for much less at the time. I currently have 16 tabs opened across four windows in Firefox, 5 tabs in Chrome, two applications(Silverlight and Java) streaming live financial quotes, DropBox, iTunes and a P2P application running while I am typing this review. I haven't noticed any noticeable hitches in performance. I have read about others complaining about issues with discrete Adobe software (especially Flash) with the most recent version of Os X Lion. I have only experienced some sluggishness once when resuming from deep sleep. For testing I used a downloaded Flash game. It took a dinky more than 10 seconds to re-render. However, this may have more to do with the integrated graphics and could possibly be corrected in the hereafter with an update.

- Solid State Drive: There's not much to say here. If you've never experienced the carrying out leap from using a Ssd then you will probably be more than a dinky impressed by the much faster load/boot times. I've installed Ssds on a few computers after talking up the carrying out boosts. I guess they were expecting all things to be instantaneous. Anyway, it's very noticeable in Bootcamp running Windows over the Mbp 13 I've been using or when transfering/copying larger files. You can read more about the much faster load/boot times from other reviews online.

- Trackpad: Quite often, old MacBook owners don't mention this as a Pro. However, the trackpad is the biggest speculate why I prefer a MacBook as my laptop of choice. I grew tired of the jumping cursors, crappy drivers, and erratic touchpad gestures. For some speculate Synaptic and most Pc vendors overlook or can't seem to get it right. How do you neglect its point as the original functioning hardware you use to legitimately interact with your computer. The trackpad on the Mba just works. It works so well and is far more than precise sufficient that I legitimately prefer not using a mouse with my laptop because of it.

- Backlit Keyboard: The keyboard itself may take some getting used to if you've never used a MacBook before. However, once you grow accustomed to the layout you will enjoy the whole of voyage and "clickiness" to it. Thankfully, the backlight was brought back for the 2011 lineup. I don't understand why this highlight was removed to begin with since it doesn't impact battery life that much. It's clutch and greatly appreciated in low lit environments.

- Build: It's the same aluminum casing material used in all the MacBook models and the same chassis design that was used in the 2010 model. Solid construction

Hardware Cons:

- No Usb 3.0: Although Usb 3.0 is not as ubiquitous Usb 2.0 it is quickly growing and peripherals are far more abundant and less high-priced than Thunderbolt peripherals. Usb 3.0 will likely remain far more favorite than Thunderbolt after Apple's exclusivity expires next year because Usb 3.0 is more cost-effective to produce and is backwards compatible with the millions of Usb 2.0 devices already available. I agree with other reviewers in that this reduces the hereafter proofing of this model, and it seems like Apple's Firewire vs Usb 2.0 situation repeated. (I digress that at least there are two Usb 2.0 ports on opposite ends. My original 2009 Mba had one.)

- Facetime Camera not High Definition: I try not to show my mug on camera but sometimes I have to use it to speak to clients via remote connections and occasional video conferencing. Again, inspecting the profit margins on each Mba sold I don't understand the speculate to exclude this highlight other than Apple being Apple and together with this as an improved highlight for next year.

- Power Button: The power button is placed in the keyboard layout right above the delete key!!! It's where the eject button is on my Mbp right above the Delete key. Yes, I just praised the keyboard in the Pros. Until you grow accustomed to this your chances of accidentally hitting the power button by mistake in the starting is likely. It won't shut your computer down or put the computer to sleep. It simply brings up the power down dialog, but it's still a questionable button placement.

- Memory is not upgradeable: Not much more to add here. 4Gb is sufficient for me and the Ssd is certainly a huge boost to hard drive caching.

- Need adapters for Hdmi, Vga, Dvi. At this price and inspecting the profit margins on each unit sold the adapters at least an adapter for Hdmi or Vga should be included. Meh...

Os X Lion Pros: (because it deserves its own section)

- Mission operate and Spaces: I legitimately like it. I used spaces on Snow Leopard with full screen apple(via third party apps) and this makes using it that much easier. You can drag windows from Space to Space to re-arrange your groups. It's a great correction that can be improved.

- Cloud/App Store Operating law Installation: No 50 character Cd Keys, scratched backup disks, or corrupt files on your thumb drive. Economy prices.

- automatic Resume: It seamlessly automatically saves the last state of your applications. Some users don't like that applies universally to every open app, but it's very easy to forestall from occurring. If you are done with an and want to forestall said app from automatically restoring simply right click its icon in the dock press option and pick force quit. another app I've used is Flexiglass which adds the functionality of right clicking the red X to thoroughly close an app and all its windows.

Osx Lion Cons: (because it deserves its own section)

- Launchpad: This was a poor, not well executed integration into Os X. Out the box the Launchpad replaces the App folder in the dock that used to be next to documents and the trash bin. I legitimately stared at the screen for a few moments until I dug through the quest results. I've tried to use it. It keeps the desktop icon less cluttered for me and I moved many of the icons I typically place there in the Launchpad. However, customizing the Launchpad has its quirks. For instance, adding and renaming folders/icons in the Launchpad isn't just legitimately done on the Launchpad by right clicking the icon. You have to open it in Finder to rename it. There are no options to convert the gesture in law Preference to view the Launchpad. I truly feel like the default gesture was tested using the midgets or elementary school kids. My hands are too big to consistently do the gesture. You'd think I could palm two basketballs with one hand.

Right now, the launchpad is quirky and somewhat redundant. I understand the direction Apple is heading and are thus gently blending touch-based iOs and original Mac Os X, but the way Apps for Os X are distributed and the perfect integration is certainly not with us today in any of Apple's lineup. Hopefully, things will heighten with hereafter updates. My hopes is that the launchpad serves as a transfer for Show Desktop in the future.

- Natural Scrolling: By default scrolling is inverted. Some like it, some don't, most habitancy will find it awkward at first and I'd bet the majority no matter how slim will convert this back. I'd prefer an opt-in integration method for this if Apple wanted to convert any decades of computing.

- Three Finger Back/Forward and Scroll to Top/Bottom: I don't know why this configuration was changed from 10.6 to 10.7 but out the box you may observation when you run a third party browser such as Firefox or Chrome that you are unable to page back/forward using the old gesture three finger swipe left/right. Well, you have to convert "Swipe between pages" to "Scroll Left/Right with Two or Three Fingers" under Systems Preferences->Trackpad->More Gestures. A gesture that is now missing entirely is three swipe up/down to scroll to top/bottom but I found a solution with an app called BetterTouchTool By Andreas Hegenberg. It's a very good tool to customize the trackpad gestures to your liking.

Expose: No minimized apps unless you are using another window of said minimized app. I don't understand the logic as to why this was removed. It was still featured to be working while the beta but has been removed. The last time I can remember having to click more than twice to view a minimized window was Windows 3.1. Again, I would prefer if this option was carried over from the Beta and preferred an opt-in integration method for this if Apple wanted to convert a decade plus of computing.

Osx Lion Neural Or Meh: (because it deserves its own section)

Many other changes in Lion were under the hood; perfect migration to 64-bit and perfect Trim support. A lot of the bundled apps have been improved particularly Mail, Lion Recovery, FileVault, AirDrop, Versions, overlay scroll bars. Some improvements are bigger/more noticeable than others. Also, you can now re-size windows from any corner/edge: Nothing innovative; better late than never; nice for those who are coming from Windows and haven't/won't use other third party accessibility apps.

Other Thoughts:

- Screen: I've seen others mention the incompatibility in screen ability between the MacBook Air and Pro models. I have noticed a dinky difference. Two things that immediately sway your Perception of the screen are the resolution and the fact that the area surrounding the display on the Mba is metallic gray vs glossy black on the Mbp. When you're comparing the two you might not think that matters. The screen on the Mba does use Tn panels but they are far better than your typical run of the mill 1024 x 768 that continues to flood the laptop industry that I typically see. Because of its screen resolution I can dock windows side by side easier on the 13" Mba than I could with a 17" Hp dv7 quad core edition that I used. No lie.

- Battery Life: Don't believe the advertised 7 hours of battery life unless you're using a third party utility or disabling all wireless connections and dimming the screen down. However, I legitimately get about 5 hours surfing the web indoors. I've gotten a dinky under four hours streaming financial quotes and actively surfing indoors, but I'd typically have it plugged in if I need it for more laberious productivity tasks. certainly not as good as the MacBook Pro 13".

- No Restore Drive: I understand this was a concern for some. Apple released the free Lion saving Disk Assistant from Apple's sustain page. You can make your own saving thumb drive on a low cost thumb drive of your option or you can order an Os X Lion Thumb Drive for Apple's Mac App Store for $69 which was released today.

- Graphics: Will it max Crysis? No... I have a desktop rig for that when I want. This is an ultraportable laptop and Imo it's the best available.

Other Tips:

Screen Keeps Dimming and Brightening: At first, I thought it was because i was using the charger from my Mbp and I was ruining a brand new high-priced --- computer, but I was 98% distinct that couldn't be the case. I went to Systems Preferences -> power Saver and unchecked Slightly dim the display when using this power source but that wasn't the case because it wasn't on battery. Anyway, I unchecked Automatically Adjust Screen glow under Display and felt as if 7 million brain cells must've died beforehand because it took a while to figure it out, but that solved it.

Security: Please convert your broadcasting discoverable wireless settings and enable your firewall under law Preferences. This is especially true if you are going to use this very transportable laptop in public areas. Although, Macs aren't targeted nearly as much as Windows or the most favorite Linux Distros you are not accumulate if leave the door wide open.

I avoided the high-priced adapters and bought two aftermarket adapters to suit my needs that have worked well thus far. Kensington Usb Mini Dock with Ethernet for Mac/Pc which provides 3 Usb 2.0 ports and an ethernet port. You can find a Hdmi adapter for very cheap. Though, they may only last any months you could order a dozen of them. Again, I strongly recommend BetterTouchTool if you are seeing to gain back the same gestures from Snow Leopard.

So, The request Is Should You think Buying And What Model?

Obviously, this depends on your needs and budget. I feel the Mba is the best ultraportable ready and if you can go without a Dvd drive an a few extra ports my recommendations are the high end 11" MacBook Air or the base model 13" MacBook Air as others have stated. The 4Gb vs 2Gb makes a difference. The choosing factor would be $100, portability, and how much screen real estate you feel you is sufficient for you.

I thought about buying one of the best alternatives, the Samsung Series 9. The included warranty was enticing but I've had to deal with servicing a laptop through the mail four times and it's never pleasant. Resale value was another factor, and though it has one of the best touch pads I've used on Windows until Synaptics releases their next generation touch pads and trackpads it still felt subpar. Ultimately, I decided I wanted to get back into cross-platform amelioration for Os X. However, another decent alternative to think is the Toshiba Portege R835 if you are seeing for an ultraportable with very strong battery life.

I want to raise a point not many habitancy write about in their reviews and that is Ssd carrying out over time. Although, Os X Lion includes Trim sustain the carrying out of all solid state drives degrades as you store more data to the drive. I've experienced this with a merge of desktop builds I've done. With some Ssd's the carrying out degradation begins after filling up just half the disk drive, and affects nearly all drives to some extent once the drive is 70% full. This is something to think when storing data. An external warehouse solution of some kind is strongly recommended.

Currently, there are two different solid state drives that ship with the MacBook Airs. One is made by Samsung and is the higher performing drive and the other is made by Toshiba. You can check which version you have by going to About this Mac->System Report->More Info click Serial-Ata and check the the first two letters of the model after Apple Ssd. credit goes to Amazon user Wayne N for pointing this out in his review. I haven't read any benchmarks on the carrying out over time with the new Mba.

I personally purchased the 256Gb model because I need to store financial data and I need a large Bootcamp partition for Windows to design and sample music, coding that involves very large libraries and sufficient warehouse for music and the occasional movie if I'm not on my home network. So, everyone's needs are different. Still, Ssd size and degradation is something to think for your intended use. The Mba is not a true desktop transfer especially if you're into playing games (of any kind if you want decent graphics) but I feel that the Mba can serve as a your original computer depending on your needs.


Thanks for reading this lengthy review. Hope it helps in your decision.
