With the addition of an M4 processor, the world’s best-selling laptop just became even better value — particularly as no equivalent Windows PC really comes close to what it can do.

Best of all, the latest MacBook Air launched with a lower starting price. Both the 13-inch and 15-inch versions of the product are priced 100 less than the M3-equipped MacBook Air

Still, the new M4 MacBook Air is impressively powerful. I put it through GeekBench's CPU test and got great results: a 3,778 single-core score, and a 14,992 multi-core score. That's considerably faster than any earlier Mac when it comes to single-core operation, and roughly on par with an M2 Max when it comes to multi-core operation.
