For all the people going 'it says M1', the website clearly hasn't been updated yet and the poster has jumped the gun. The M2 MBA has just been announced at WWDC and they're still in the middle of the presentation. edit Anyway here are the just announced specs - 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU. Nearly 40 percent faster than the previous generation - 13.6" screen, has notch - battery life, up to 18 hours of video playback. - magsafe - 2 usb C ports so you can charge 2 devices - still has audio jack - 1080p FaceTime HD camera, twice the resolution and twice the low-light performance - 11.3mm thin - no more wedge design - silver, space gray, midnight (blue), starlight (gold)

What's the max memory?

  M2 slide said that it supports up to 24GB memory. No Air configs were announced yet, but I'd guess it will be sold with up to full supported amount.

> no more wedge design That is unfortunate. The wedge air design is the most comfortable macbook to type on IMO since it doesn't have the thick 90 degree metal edge digging into your wrist like the others. One of the main reasons I got it

  Agree. Also wished they're released the 11" again. Or the 12" Retina MB. That's still my main laptop and I love that sleek design.

  i feel they should’ve kept the macbook air design as is and instead redesign the 13 inch Pro

  I'm looking at a picture of the previous model and having trouble understanding what you mean, when on a table the surface where your wrists rest is still parallel to the table, and the top edge isn't rounded in any way. Only the bottom is rounded, but that isn't touching your wrists anyway.

  Agree. My wife has an ancient Air, I use a Pro, and it's SO much more comfortable to type on: the lower-rise palm rest, the slight angle, and the less-knifelike edges all contribute to this. Also: something about the aluminum used on the older Airs/Pros feels "softer" to the hand than the aluminum process/finish they began using starting in 2016.

    The edges are sharper since 2016.

It shows M2 for me. Then I sent the link to a friend and it somehow reverted back to M1.

  Apple forgot to invalidate the cache?
