The MacBook They are one of the best -selling laptops in the world, highlighting not only for their operating system or battery life, two key points for most consumers, but for other aspects such as the weight of the device, something key to many.
And it is that Apple computers have a Very light weightat least for its hardware and characteristics, so today we are going to analyze this data in the company's latest models, to see how it has evolved over time, comparing it, in turn, with other brands.
How much a macbook weighs
As we can understand, a MAC of 20 years ago will not be the same, than one of the present, although it can surprise us, since the most modern is not the lightest, something that is also due to the improvement in the components used, so, without further delay, we will see a list of them:
- MacBook Pro 14 inches (M4) – 1.55 kg.
- MacBook Pro of 14 inches (M4 Pro) – 1.61 kg.
- MacBook Pro 14 inches (M4 Max) – 1.62 kg.
- MacBook Pro 16 inches (M4 Pro) – 2.15 kg.
- MacBook Pro 16 inches (M4 Max) – 2.16 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Air (M3) – 1.24 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Pro (M1, 2020) – 1.4 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Air (M1, 2020) – 1.29 kg.
- MacBook Pro 16 inches (2019) – 2.0 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Air (2018) – 1.25 kg.
- MacBook Pro 15 inches (2018) – 1.83 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Pro (2018) – 1.37 kg.
- 12 -inch macbook (2017) – 0.92 kg.
- MacBook Pro 15 inches (2016) – 1.83 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Pro (2016) – 1.37 kg.
- 12 -inch MacBook (2015) – 0.92 kg.
- MacBook Pro 15 inches (2015) – 2.05 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Pro (2015) – 1.58 kg.
- 13 -inch MacBook Air (2015) – 1.35 kg.
- 11 -inch MacBook Air (2015) – 1.08 kg.
As we can see, a 13 -inch Macbook Air 10 years ago had a weight of 1.35 kg, while the most recent, with M3 processor, of the same inches, weighs 1.24 kg, so in this case, we have reduced the weight, even if it does not happen with everyone.
This is something striking, because we practically talk about similar weights in the last decade, Randing between 1 and 2 kgwith some exception such as the 12 -inch Mac of 2015 and 2017, with pesos below 1,000 grams.
But what happens to the competition? How much does a computer of another brand weigh? This is curious, since if we compare it with other types of computers, we can see the following list:
- Dell XPS 13 – 1.2 kg
- Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon – 1.13 kg
- HP Specter X360 – 1.3 kg
- ASUS ZENBOOK 13 – 1.1 kg
- Acer Swift 3 – 1.2 kg
- Microsoft Surface LapTop 3 – 1.28 kg
- Razer Blade Stealth 13 – 1.3 kg
- Lenovo Yoga C930 – 1.38 kg
- HP Envy 13 – 1.17 kg
- Dell Inspion 15 7000 – 2 kg

And, although years ago, Apple was characterized by having much lighter computerswe can see that, at present, the best -selling in the market, they are around Mac's weights, so that the strong point we were talking about, despite continuing to be, is no longer exclusive, and we can see how the competition matches them, although of course, not at the battery level, being the MacBook, the best in this aspect, with the same weight, point that they have not yet been able to reproduce.
