    Display And Its Resolution:

    Apple MacBook Air 2015 hopefully disappointed for those who hoping for Retinal Display as MacBook still uses the same display LED screen which is a fantastic display with a glossy finish to reach out to Color level good to the user.

  • The display is border with casing which holding web cam on the top while as display compared with XPS 13 borderless display with camera position bottom corner which is very impractical approach toward making laptops. Display doesn’t get much improvements like true tone display or refreshing each pixel and other more seen in iPad and iPhone.
  • As far resolution is concern 11.6-inch model 1366×768 pixels and 13.6-inch model have 1440×900 pixel which is good but other competitors gives about F-HD or Q-HD displays.

    Apple MacBook Air has all essential for the latest in house power underneath it. As it is powered by Intel previous-gen Broadwell series CPU which is upgraded from 4th generation Intel processors. Broadwell CPU is more powerful and energy-efficient. Current gen Haswell processor doesn’t take its place in new MacBooks as 2016 MacBook 12-inch comes with this 6th gen CPU and hoping the next-gen Macs will have the next-gen processor.

    Apple MacBook Air comes with OS X 10.11 El Capitan with lots of improvements like split-screen, multitasking and much more. As the interface is streamlined and easy to use with lots of lots of features. Apps like iTunes, photos, Notes, Safari and much more which gives a blended taste of OS and App Store shows app relevant for the user.

    The whole UI is suitable to take advantage of hardware with all features. The touchpad is also be talking about the topic for MacBook as the multi-finger support with many gestures will feel like using a touch screen. A gesture like a pinch to zoom, two-finger for right-click, four-finger for multitasking and much more will have a fantastic experience. Force touchpad is not able to take MacBook Air which is introduced in 12-inch MacBook as it increases productivity more.

    The interface is quite easy and the initial setup is very easy there is no need to install OS with CD as the device is itself connected to the Apple database which wirelessly does everything as Windows still has very mind taking steps for setup Windows. The user interested to run Windows in Mac uses boot camp which installs Windows version very easily.

    Overall

    • It about ending an era for the 2015 MacBook but it’s still best among all which is compared with this in terms of all capabilities. This gives the device a longevity experience so the user can use this for years as the build quality of Apple is top class and above all, it’s best.
    • The two models come with a different price range as 11.6-inch starts at $899 for Core i5 with 4GB of Ram with 128 GB storage which the most compatible 13.3-inch starts with $999 for Core i5 with 8GB of Ram and 128GB storage.
    • The device is quite good and can resolve your day to day work very easily. You can wait for the next-gen MacBook Air which surely has something more better.

    They still lag new processor but the quality and performance are still good. Some of the things is not included in 2015 MacBook Air-like new Force touchpad, New butterfly mechanism keyboard, most requested retinal display, Type-C port, fast charging, and the list goes on as these are most requested feature next 2016 MacBook Air which will make its the announcement in WWDC 2016 on June 13.  So stay tuned as we will provide you all-over coverage of WWDC 2016.
