Sound Power Level Sound Pressure Level

L W A,m (B) Operator Position

L p A,m (dB)

Idle 1.2 (K V = 0.3) 3

Wireless web 1.3 (K V = 0.3) 3

q. L W A,m is the mean A-weighted sound power level, rounded to the

nearest 0.1 B.
r. L p A,m is the mean A-weighted sound pressure level measured at
operator position (rounded to the nearest 1 dB).
s. 1 B (bel) = 10 dB (decibel).
t. K v is the statistical adder for computing upper-limit of A-weighted
sound power level.
u. The quantity, L W A,c (formerly called L W Ad) may be computed from
the sum of L W A,m and K v .
v. The wireless web test browses 6 tabs with a mix of content
including media.
w. Configuration tested: M4, 10-core CPU / 10-core GPU, 24GB unified
memory, 512GB storage.
q. Apple Intelligence is available in beta on all Mac models with M1 and later, with Siri and device language set to English
(Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, UK or US), as a macOS Sequoia update. Additional features and
Chinese (Simplified), English (India, Singapore), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil) and Spanish
language support available in early April, with more languages coming over the course of the year, including Vietnamese.
Some features may not be available in all regions or languages.
r. Screen size is measured diagonally. The displays on the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air have rounded corners at the top.
When measured as a standard rectangular shape, the screens are 13.6 inches and 15.3 inches diagonally (actual viewable
area is less).
s. Testing conducted by Apple in January 2025 using pre-production 13-inch MacBook Air systems with Apple M4, 10-core
CPU and 8-core GPU, and pre-production 15-inch MacBook Air systems with Apple M4, 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, all
configured with 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. Wireless web battery life tested by browsing 25 popular websites while
connected to Wi-Fi. Video streaming battery life tested with 1080p content in Safari while connected to Wi-Fi. All systems
tested with display brightness set to 8 clicks from bottom and keyboard backlight off. Battery life varies by use and
configuration. See apple.com/uk/batteries for more information.
t. 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
u. Wi-Fi 6E available in countries and regions where supported.
v. See support.apple.com/en-gb/102596 for supported models.
w. Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
y. iPhone Mirroring is not available in all countries and regions. Some iPhone features (e.g. camera and microphone) are not
compatible with iPhone Mirroring.
z. iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are available on the Mac App Store. Downloading apps requires an Apple
Account and a device that is compatible with the OS version required for each app.
q{. Data accurate as of product launch.
qq. Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not
including packaging or in-box accessories.
qr. We estimate the percentage of electricity-related emissions in our manufacturing that is sourced from low-carbon electricity
by attributing to our carbon model low-carbon energy procured by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier
manufacturing allocations at time of product launch. This calculation assesses the suppliers for MacBook Air. Included in this
number is only low-carbon electricity that Apple or its suppliers have procured as part of Appleʼs Supplier Clean Energy
Programme.
qs. Carbon reductions are calculated against a product-specific business-as-usual scenario as modelled by Apple: 1) No use of
clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the latest modelled grid (based on
regional emissions factors). 2) Appleʼs carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product
carbon-neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Appleʼs
average mix of transport modes (air, rail, sea, land) by product line and by region across three years (fiscal years 2017 to
2019) to best capture the baseline transport emissions of our products.
qt. Based on retail packaging as shipped by Apple. Breakdown of US retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks and coatings
are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.
qu. ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark are registered trademarks owned by the US Environmental Protection Agency.
qv. Appleʼs Regulated Substances Specification describes Appleʼs restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in
materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging used for shipping products to Appleʼs end
customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco-label requirements,
environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power leads in
India, Thailand (for two-pin AC power leads) and the Republic of Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for
our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its
amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high-temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the
use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.
