Apple surprised us earlier this week with the announcement of the M3 variant of the MacBook Air. It was long overdue since the release of the M3 MacBook Pro models last year. While there aren’t many changes to the design, the internals receive a substantial upgrade over its predecessor. Pre-orders for the M3 MacBook Air began on March 4th. Now, the M3 MacBook Air models are hitting the shelves of Apple Stores across various regions, including the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia.
Customers can simply walk into an Apple Store and walk out with a new M3 MacBook Air the same day or the next day. In addition, those who prefer the convenience of online shopping can expect their orders to arrive promptly starting today.
The newly launched M3 MacBook Air models come in two sizes, 13.6-inch and 15.3-inch, with pricing starting at $1,099, and $1,299, or $999, and $1,199 for students, respectively. Both variants come in Space Gray, Midnight, Starlight, and Silver options. Meanwhile, the predecessor 13-inch M2 MacBook Air is available with a price cut.
