ArsTechnica found “moderate” performance improvements of the 64 GB solid-state drive of the first generation Air over the standard 80 GB hard drive in tests. It was also Apple’s first computer with an optional solid-state storage drive. The MacBook Air was the first subcompact laptop offered by Apple since the full-featured 12″ PowerBook G4 was discontinued in 2006. On top of the screen bezel there is a webcam, first dubbed iSight and now the FaceTime camera. The right side of the computer has a USB port and a Mini DisplayPort, now sharing Thunderbolt function in the 2011 version. On the 11-inch MacBook Air, the left side of the computer has a MagSafe power connector, a USB port, a headphone jack, and a microphone.

With the release of Mac OS X Snow Leopard, the Air’s multi-touch trackpad also supports handwriting recognition of Chinese characters. The computer features a glossy LED backlit display and a full-size keyboard, as well as a large trackpad that responds to iPad-related Multi-Touch gestures such as pinching, swiping, and rotating. The MacBook Air is designed for thinness it is also lighter than most competing models. From left to right, MagSafe power connector, USB port, headphone jack and built-in microphone. The new model is powered by the new Ivy Bridge dual-core Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, doubles the RAM and SSD speeds, has the new USB 3 ports (with USB 2 capability), in place of the USB 2 ports and the new Magsafe 2 charging port. On June 11, 2012, Apple released an updated model in the same form factor as the prior model. A USB Ethernet adapter was immediately available upon release and a Thunderbolt-to-Firewire 800 adapter became available for the 11″ model in mid-year 2012.

These models use a less expensive “Eagle Ridge” Thunderbolt controller that provides two Thunderbolt channels (2 x 10 Gbit/s bidirectional), compared to the MacBook Pro which uses a “Light Ridge” controller that provides four Thunderbolt channels (4 x 1- Gbps bidirectional).

Both 11 and 13″ models had an analog audio output/headphone minijack (that also supports an iPhone/iPod touch headset with microphone), but only the 13″ model had an integrated SDXC-capable SD Card slot, a Gigabit Ethernet port, and a Firewire 800 port. Maximum SSD flash memory storage options were increased up to 512 gigabytes.

The new model was powered by the new Sandy Bridge 1.6 or 1.7 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5, or 1.8 GHz dual-core Intel Core i7 processors, that came with an Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor, and with a backlit keyboard, two USB 2.0 ports, a 720p FaceTime camera, a standard of 2 gigabytes of RAM though configurable up to 4GB, Thunderbolt which shares function with Mini DisplayPort and Bluetooth was upgraded to v4.0. On July 20, 2011, Apple released an updated model in the same form factor as the prior model.

In addition, a new 11.6″ model was introduced, offering reduced cost, weight, battery life, and performance relative to the 13.3″ model, but better performance than typical netbooks of the time. On October 20, 2010, Apple released a redesigned 13.3″ model, with improved enclosure, screen resolution, battery, and flash storage instead of a hard drive. A mid-2009 refresh, introduced alongside the MacBook Pro family, featured a slightly higher-capacity battery, and a faster Penryn CPU. In late 2008, the CPU was updated to a faster, non-custom Penryn CPU and integrated Nvidia GeForce graphics while the hard drive capacity was increased and the micro-DVI video port was replaced by the Mini DisplayPort. It featured a custom Intel Merom CPU and Intel GMA graphics.
The first-generation MacBook Air was a 13.3″-only model, initially promoted as the world’s thinnest notebook. Steve Jobs introduced the first MacBook Air during a speech at his keynote at the 2008 Macworld Conference & Expo on January 15. Steve Jobs with a MacBook Air at the 2008 keynote.
