Apple's 2025 MacBook Air and iPad Air Deliver Incremental Upgrades

The new MacBook Air introduces M4 chips, improved webcam features, and enhanced external display support, while the iPad Air sees minor updates with the M3 chip and a redesigned Magic Keyboard.

The 2025 MacBook Air features the new M4 chip, offering faster performance but minimal real-world speed improvements for most users compared to the M2 and M3 chips.
Key upgrades in the MacBook Air include a 12MP Center Stage webcam with AI tracking and Desk View mode, as well as support for up to two 6K external displays alongside the laptop's screen.
Apple has introduced a new Sky Blue color option for the MacBook Air, though the shade appears very light and similar to silver in person.
The 2025 iPad Air now includes the M3 chip, bringing modest performance improvements, hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and support for Apple Intelligence AI
A redesigned Magic Keyboard for the iPad Air adds a row of function keys, a slightly larger trackpad, and a reduced price, though it lacks backlighting and haptic feedback present in the Pro model's keyboard.
