Little remains for him to MacBook Air with M4 Chip It is launched to the market, being the fourth team with Apple's own processor, and that, since 2020, with the departure of the M1, we have seen these computers, being much better than the previous ones with Intel hardware.
However, for 4 years, none of the versions really stood out, and if you had an M1, it was absurd to go for a m2 or m3, since the change would cost you much more than what they could offer you, however, with This new, changes the thing, and now it is worth it.
MacBook Air M4: Pros
Although its departure is not official, so small details could vary, we do have all filtering, so we are going to review its characteristics, in ready mode, to see what it brings, and be able to compare it later with what we have in The market, although we will try to emphasize its pros.
- Bigger and bright screen: The M4 model offers screens of 13.6 and 15.3 inches, with greater brightness and a nanotexture option for a better visualization.
- More Ram: All M4 models begin with 16 GB of RAM, expandable up to 32 GB, a significant improvement, since the M1 would only have 8 GB base.
- Extended battery: The improved efficiency of the M4 chip allows the battery life, as seen in the MacBook Pro, without sacrificing the size of the device.
- Improved performance: The M4 is up to 1.7 times faster in daily tasks, up to 2.1 times in heavier jobs and its Neural Engine is more than three times faster to process artificial intelligence tasks.
- Magsafe: Now includes Magsafe, which provides a safer load and releases one of the USB-C ports, improving comfort.
- New camera: The M4 incorporates a 12 MP camera with support for Desk View and Central Stage, offering a better video and functionality quality for video calls.
- 4 speakers sound system: If you use the integrated sound, you will enjoy a remarkable improvement with the 4 -speakers stereo speakers, which were not present in the previous model.

- New design: The elegant and thin design, presented with the M2, remains in the M4, offering a modern and professional appearance.
As we can see, the differences with the M1 range from the power to the battery and the screen, all for a cost similar to the previous models, since a higher price is not expectedso now, there is a clear difference, and choosing between an M1 or an M4 will not be a matter of price, choosing the least worth supply at some point, but there will be many points that make us decide for the last one.
And you, do you have an M1? Would you change it for this M4, or do you think the improvements are not enough, and your 2020 macbook continues to function as the first day? Leave us a comment with your opinion. In my case I think I would not change it, although if I had to choose a new new one, it is clear to which one I would go for.
