There’s also a new 1080p FaceTime HD camera, four-speaker sound system, and four color options.

Prices for the MacBook Air 2022 start at $1,199, which is a notable $200 increase over the MacBook Air M1. But the upgrades on offer seem worth the price hike. If you’re fine with less power and an older design, the older Air is still available for $999.
Following a week of preorders, the MacBook Air 2022 will then go on sale July 15. And with some early back to school sales on Apple’s new laptops you could secure a neat deal on the new Air. In fact, the Apple 2022 back to school discount is already knocking $100 off MacBook Air M2 preorders and also bundles a $150 Apple gift card. You must be a student to get this deal.
