New MacBook Air: This is the benchmark test

In addition to the much anticipated new iPad Pro models that have taken over from the old MacBook Air, this fall, October 30, the new version is still offered at the entry price. But also in terms of performance, the laptop has a lot to offer, as shown by the benchmark test.

The MacBook Air is exceptionally convenient, especially when traveling. The slim casing and the relatively compact size make it easy to transport, but at what cost? You might think that to be able to guarantee these benefits, you must make sacrifices in terms of performance. But that does not seem to be the case with the new MacBook Air: the first benchmark tests are more than solid.

MacBook even more up to date

Admittedly, a more than clear increase compared to the last MacBook Air was to be expected. But that's not all. Even with the current 12-inch MacBook in the fastest configuration, Geekbench 4 fails. In the single kernel, the new MacBook Air reaches here a value of 4,248. The multi-core reaches 7,828 points.

It should be noted that the MacBook Air combines more than solid performance with an exceptionally long life. According to Apple, the laptop should last up to 12 hours in wireless browsing, and viewing movies via iTunes should be possible until 1 pm. This makes it particularly interesting for those who attach importance to performance and who still need a durable device.
