For the starting version. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Quickest silent laptop chip around
  • Premium, very thin metal body
  • Bright colour-accurate screen with no flicker
  • Loud, full sound
  • Lasts a long time on a charge
  • Webcam finally good
  • Big sharp screen in a slim, light body

Cons

  • Only two USB-C ports and no SD slot
  • 60Hz screen and no Wi-Fi 7
  • Bundled 35W charger is slow
  • Cannot be upgraded or repaired; Apple charges a lot for more RAM/SSD
  • Slows down in long multi-core work
  • Battery fell short of Apple's 18-hour claim
  • Many games struggle to hold 30 fps
  • NotebookcheckMar 2025

    Tested M4 10-core GPU, 16GB/1TB (global model): a fanless laptop whose chip is faster than any silent Windows rival, held back mainly by a dated 60Hz screen and few ports.

  • Tom's GuideMar 2025

    Tested M4 16GB/256GB (US model): one of the best laptops you can buy if you want a big-screen Air, though M3 owners have no reason to switch; Editor's Choice.

  • TechRadarMar 2025

    Tested M4 16GB/512GB (UK/US model): the 15-inch laptop to recommend to most people, especially Intel Mac or Windows switchers; not worth it as an upgrade from an M2/M3 Air.
