Here Are Real-World Photos of the New Sky Blue MacBook Air

Where I live the sky is much richer blue…

Guess Tim rejected the first name choice “Smog Blue Sky”

 

[bluecoast]

I love it.

I mean if I sell/ part exchange my silver m3 to fund a sky blue m3 mba, that’s justifiable right? Ummm.

 

[bluecoast]

I’m going to take a wild guess and say that the sky blue-color will be available on the rumored iPhone air as well.

That’s a great guess and you really might be right.

They should have left the space gray option and removed the midnight instead. Space gray is beautiful.

 

[Jeweller]

Rest in peace Space Gray, really? I type from my M2 Air...

 

[iGüey]

This color is gorgeous!

 

[DroidBro]

I just found this vídeo

Thanks for sharing. Looks nice but as another poster said I wish they had gone with the iMac colors. Am orange air would've made me pre-order on emotion alone

 

[howywood]

Dude if Tim Apple would just bring the screen up to par I would be all over the new blue Air

 

[ascender]

I mean, at least it's not just silver with a hint of blue, that looks pretty nice.

I think we'd all like bold colours like the rears of the iMac, but that's clearly just not going to happen.

I don’t like laptop with bold colors, simple Space Gray or Space Black would be my choice… oh wait, we don't have these options anymore.

I can’t tell the difference between the blue and the silver.

What I really want is the old gold. The 12 in

60 Hz LCD screen with poor brightness levels for $999.

I'm never buying one, I'm a display elitist.

I like to call that display snobs.😂

Hard to tell from the images I'm seeing on my current screen, but it kinda looks like the iPhone color of Sierra Blue. It appears blue or somewhat silverish depending on how the light is hitting it.

 

[Otwer22]

I am always torn about downgrading to a macbook air from a macbook pro. But the size & weight difference is always tempting me.

I bought a MBP M4 16” last fall as I didn’t need portability. Love it specially the big screen. However my use case has changed and need smaller, lighter as lugging this thing around is a beast. So looking at a MBA 13” to use for a portable option. I’m lucky to have the funds to keep my MBP and get the MBA.

Well they are made in China so the color fits where they be made.

I was hoping for a slightly lighter shade of blue because sky blue was just wishful thinking. So glad I waited on ordering a midnight M3. Sky blue is awesome. As for 60 Hz screen, I don’t think that matters for the intended audience although I might dabble with a few games.

Waiting for moss green or terracotta

 

[ArmouredBear]

Looks very nice.
Such a shame they got rid of the illuminated Mac sign ages ago.
Why?

 

[geta]

Waiting for moss green or terracotta

Moss green would be a color I wouldn't mind having even though Space Gray/Black would be my first choice.

 

[bsmr]

This color is gorgeous!

Which color?

 

[iGüey]

Which color?

What are here talking about?

Pistachio green color?

 

[bsmr]

Pistachio green color?

No - we're talking about all available colors

 

[maxoakland]

It looks too close to silver for me. I bet people will think it’s silver unless it’s next to an actual silver macbook

I’d love more saturated colors. I loved the pacific blue M1 iMac

 

[maxoakland]

If they ever bring back Bondi Blue on anything, I'm prolly gonna buy it.

I wish they would! I love color but I like my colors a little darker and not candy-colored. Bondi Blue over Blueberry. Otherwise I just have to go with black or grey

.. you just paying more for something you likely never fully understood. Higher refresh rates is built for motions such as FPS related.
If you just doing static works such as graphics designs and office works, or even video editing, all you need is 60hz and big resolution display. 120hz+ will not make any difference

I can’t tell the difference between the blue and the silver.

What I really want is the old gold. The 12 inch MacBook gold kinda gold.

I think that would be pretty cool. I'd also like to see one copper colored.
