The big change I'd like to see in the MacBook Air line is the return of the 11" option; I realize that's too small for a lot of people but for me it was the perfect carry-everywhere form factor for a laptop. (Of course, I also found the iPhone mini line perfect-sized and that got dropped, so I'm probably an outlier)
- uuddlrlrbaba 3y agoThat's interesting. After trying a 13" macbook myself, I sized back up to a 16" and personally wont be going back. There is only a marginal difference in my backpack, I don't really notice it. But every time I was using the smaller device I was getting annoyed with the small screen and cramped keyboard/trackpad setup.
- pjot 3y agoIs the keyboard/trackpad on 16” not the same size as on the 13”?
- cassianoleal 3y agoKeyboard, yes. Trackpad, no. I prefer the smaller trackpad on the smaller laptops. Too much false touching on the larger ones.
- Fezzik 3y agoThis is me, still clinging to my 2015 11” Air. My biggest gripe is I miss the screen ratio. 16:9 is so much more aesthetically pleasing and functional to me than the 16:10 ratio of the new models. That 1 unit makes a world of difference to me.
- Clubber 3y agoDifferent strokes for different folks. I despise the 16:9 ratio and glad it's finally phasing out, if just a little bit. I read a lot of text, so that extra vertical unit is huge for me.
- dalyons 3y agothe 11" had quite a large bezel - with its thin bezel the m2 13" is actually very close to the same size. 2012 mba 11: 300 x 192 (11.8 x 7.56 inches) 2023 mba m2: 304 x 215 (11.97 x 8.46 inches) ~ same width, and only ~2cm deeper for a much bigger screen. Its very much worth it imho.
- nateb2022 3y agoI would really love this. I currently use a 13" M2 Air but I would definitely prefer an 11" option.
