The best news we can see in this report is that, for potential MBA owners or even new owners, we have demonstrated first hand that the two SSDs chosen by Apple are top tier SSDs and among the best available today. Deciding on which to get may even be an ...

The last question that needs to be addressed is that of which Ultra I will find myself using from now forward which should be a tough call, especially after just reviewing the new Samsung Series 9 15″ and having preferred the Toshiba Z830 prior to that. ...
Abstract: Believe it or not, it's been nearly four and a half years since Apple released the original --. At the time, it was revolutionary in terms of its size and weight, but it also was slow, had little storage, had only a single USB port for expansion, and w...

Ivy Bridge processors are a nice upgrade, Gorgeous design, Keyboard and touchpad are still great
Retina display puts this one to shame, Graphics performance isn't stellar, "HD" webcam is a misnomer

At first blush, the MacBook Air doesn't appear to have changed much between 2011 and 2012: it looks exactly the same, save for those USB 3.0 ports and new MagSafe2 connector, and even the 50Wh battery remains unchanged. As for those faster Ivy Bridge proc...

The 13-inch MacBook Air has new Intel CPUs, better battery life, and an improved 720p Webcam, and finally adds USB 3.0 ports, while shaving $100 off the price from last year's models
The design, while strong, stays largely the same: there's no Ethernet port, and the base SSD storage option of 128GB is smaller than a standard hard drive, though common for ultrabooks
This year's MacBook Air opts for gradual improvements rather than anything revolutionary, but lowered prices continue to make it the go-to mainstream recommendation for any MacBook owner-to-be.
There will undoubtedly be some disappointed that the Retina Display hasn’t made it to the MacBook Air range yet. It’s true that the massively pixel-dense display is one of our favorite features of the new MacBook Pro, but for the moment it’s an expens...

Iconic, beautifully thin design, Very long battery life, Fast boot time and faster flash memory than previous Air, Superior touchpad, Vast, easy-to-use App Store, Impressively loud speakers
Other ultraportables have higher-resolution screens, SD Card sticks out
Apple makes the quintessential ultraportable notebook even better by giving the MacBook Air faster performance and longer battery life.
Faster processor and solid-state drive at a lower price than previous version, USB 3.0 ports, Same attractive, sturdy design, Quick boot time
No thinner or lighter than previous models, Screen resolution could be higher for the screen size
With an Intel Ivy Bridge CPU and speedy USB 3.0 ports, Apple's latest Air is still a strong candidate for best ultraportable available. But with the same chassis and screen resolution as last year's models, it's not the class-leader-by-a-mile that the pr...
Abstract: The Dell XPS 13 is an impressive notebook, and easily the best Ultrabook yet.It's really the first Ultrabook that competes with the MacBook Air thanks to a starting price of $999, powerful internals and great looks.The Dell XPS 13 compares favorably to bo...
