About this Mac

This device is a BTO/CTO device which is nearly identical to MJVM2LL/A. We have listed this device separately as it has been configured with an upgraded processor when compared to the base model. This has been done to make it easier to catalog as well as easier to read.

The Apple MacBook Air model released in early 2015 was an 11.6” version. One of the major differences from previous versions includes an updated Wi-Fi adapter to the 802.11ac standard that is backward compatible with the 802.11a/b/g/n. The battery also was upgraded to last close to 9 hours.

This is almost doubled from the previous generations. The 11.6” widescreen comes with a 1366 x 768 native resolution. The graphics processor is the Intel HD Graphics 6000 which uses up to 1.5 GB of system memory. The MacBook Air maintains its standing as a great ultra-light notebook. Further specifications and capabilities for this device can be found below.
