The MacBook Air hasn't been updated since Early 2015, not as long as the mini's gone without an update but unlike the mini, I doubt they've make a new MacBook Air.
The 13" MacBook Pro weighs the same as the MacBook Air (well, the MBP is .06 lbs heavier) and is thinner than the Air at its thickest point (0.59 in. vs. 0.11 to 0.68 in.) . Apple's battery life estimate is longer for the Air than the MBP but that would not be true if they added a Retina display to the Air.
The MacBook Air is better at slicing cake than the 13"in MacBook Pro.
- chongli 9y agoMacBook Air hasn't been updated since Early 2015 I get that. My point is that Apple's not going to discontinue a product that continues to sell well enough to make it highly profitable. Likewise, if sales are not tapering off then there is little reason to update it unless they can cut costs by doing so. This isn't the 90s anymore. A computer that's 6 years old is not 16x slower than a brand new one.
