Here Are Real-World Photos of the New Sky Blue MacBook Air

Apple today updated the MacBook Air with the M4 chip, and the laptop is also available in an all-new Sky Blue finish alongside Silver, Starlight, and Midnight.

YouTuber Andru Edwards has showed off the Sky Blue color in a few real-world photos.

Keep in mind that the Sky Blue finish is not very saturated. However, the color's appearance will vary based on lighting conditions.


The Verge also shared some real-world photos.

Here is what Apple said about the Sky Blue finish:

Adding a new choice to the lineup of MacBook Air colors is the all-new sky blue. A beautiful, metallic light blue that creates a dynamic gradient when light reflects off of its surface, sky blue joins midnight, starlight, and silver to complete the brilliant array of color choices for MacBook Air. All color options, including sky blue, come with a color-matched MagSafe charge cable.

The new MacBook Air also features an upgraded Center Stage camera, support for two external displays with the lid open, and a few other changes.

The new MacBook Air is available to pre-order now, and it launches Wednesday, March 12.

They should have kept the Space Grey and added the Blue as an extra colour option.

It's a shame they took off the Space Gray color option. Now there are 3 bright colors and ugly Midnight Blue.
