How much does MacBook Air 11 cost? Review of the "air" Apple 10 years after release



At one time, this lightweight laptop from Apple outperformed its competitors by several years. The Air model released to the market weighed only 1.36 kg. About 8 years ago this was a real achievement, and the new ultrabook had sufficient performance to perform all the tasks assigned to it.

What is a used MacBook Air 11? Many people think that this is an old, worn-out device with a depleted battery that does not deserve attention. But if you buy used YAK NOVIY equipment in a store, the story is different: the laptop is still functional, looks aesthetically pleasing, and its battery potential is above 80%. This little guy is by no means a weakling.

MacBook Air 11: benefits

The 2013 MacBook Air (which is the oldest version) has three brilliant features.

Battery life . If you do not run energy-intensive Photoshop, Lightroom and similar tools, and also disable Dropbox and Adobe Creative Cloud, the MacBook can last up to 5 hours.

Fast flash memory , which is used in Air instead of SSD drives. Features high read and write speeds. The 128GB models are the slowest, and the 512 is by far the fastest—reads above 720MB/s and writes above 700MB/s are standard.

Dimensions of MacBook Air 11 used . The device fits in my iPad bag. The weight is also light, so the user should not have the dilemma of “take it with you or not.”

Low price. Used Apple appliances from the “YAK NEW” range cost $200, $300 cheaper than new ones. And, sometimes, twice as much!

Used MacBook Air 11 – disadvantages

Due to the venerable age of the model, of course, it has some disadvantages. In particular, the screen resolution is 1366x768 pixels. In the era of 4K and 8K, the characteristic prompts one to exclaim “Well, kamon!” In fact, if you don’t look closely at the screen surface and try to look for individual dots (and you are unlikely to do this), the picture looks “monolithic” and colorful.

The second point is the display frame. The black rubber does a good job of separating the screen from the keys and body, but it's just plain ugly. But what did you want from an Apple laptop from 2012?!
