This is the M5 MacBook Air, it’s faster and has more storage, but is now $100 more expensive and now there’s a new cheaper MacBook in town too. So, I’ve been using the M5 MacBook air for a while now and I think it hits a bit different this year. Physically, the M5 MacBook Air looks and feels like the previous model, it’s the exact same size, comes in the same colors and the trackpad, keyboard and speakers look, feel and sound similar to last year’s. They’re all pretty good. What’s different then? Let’s talk about it.
