The MacBook Air 11-inch has an 11.6-inch display with 1366 x 768 pixel resolution 171ppi, so its softer than the new MacBook. Interestingly though, all Apple’s laptops have the same kind of memory - that’s PCIe-based flash storage - that should offer the same read and write speeds across the board. It has a 12-inch display with a resolution of 2304 x 1440 pixels, 226ppi. Now rumors are again popping up about a smaller.

Moreover, the cheapest new MacBook model comes with more storage than the entry-level 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Airs, MacBook Pro, and even the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display (these models all ship with 128GB of flash storage). Ever since Apple discontinued its 12-inch PowerBook notebook PC in favor of larger widescreen units, many a computer fan has pleaded for its return. In addition to what looks like a great processor, the 12-inch MacBook also ships with 8GB of built-in 1600MHz LPDDR3 RAM - the same kind of fast memory found in other MacBook models including Air and Pro versions, though the MacBook has more memory than the basic 11-inch and 13-inch Air models. That adds up to a razor sharp pixel density of 226 PPI. Unsurprisingly, the Core M processor is also significantly more energy efficient, allowing companies to come up with ultra-slim laptop designs such as the one Apple unveiled this week. The new MacBooks 12-inch display sports a 2304 x 1440 resolution, a number weve never seen on a notebook before. Comparing the same Intel Core M-5Y70 processor version used in the aforementioned benchmarks with the four-year-old Core i5-520UM model that’s still used in plenty of work laptops, Intel has found that the Core M is both faster when it comes to regular tasks (up to two times faster for productivity chores, web apps usage and photo editing) and also gaming (up to seven times faster than older devices).
