A gentle breeze. Not a beat too late in the circannual rhythm, Apple updates their MacBook Air series. New on the inside: Current Haswell ULV processors. Out of keeping with the trend Apple themselves initiated, the new Air doesn't have a higher resolution display this time; the panel remains the same. Are the updates enough for the device to deserve to be called "new"?

I think in the review, the Battery runtime is off, or is it showing the Windows battery runtime?
Please review the 13 inch MBA 2013!!
The battery runtime values reflect testing under WIndows.
The 13-inch MBA 2013 review will be coming very soon!
I own this laptop and can confirm to the ridiculous battery life. As long as I use safari and in normal conditions of web browsing I easily get notebookcheck's battery run time ~ 11 hours. About 8 - 9 when watching a movie with headphones no wifi.
Writing an essay or report with no wifi / bluetooth gets even longer.
Excellent review as always Notebookcheck.
Pretty much the perfect laptop. 9/10 just wish it was retina.
