MacBook Air, MacBook Pro updated for new school term

MacBook Air, MacBook Pro updated for new school term

Apple has updated its MacBook Air, adding True Tone to its Retina display for a more natural viewing experience, and lowering the price to Bt35,900 and reducing the cost for college students to just Bt31,900.

In addition, the entry-level Bt42,900 13-inch MacBook Pro has been updated with the latest 8th-generation quad-core processors, making it twice as powerful than before. It also now features Touch Bar and Touch ID, a True Tone Retina display and the Apple T2 Security Chip, and is available to college students for Bt38,900. 
With their sleek, portable designs, Retina displays, great everyday performance, all-day battery life and running macOS, Mac notebooks have never been more popular in higher education, with Student Monitor data showing nearly 60 per cent of US college notebook buyers own a Mac. 
“College students love the Mac – it’s the notebook they rely on from the dorm room to the classroom, and the No 1 choice among higher education students,” said Tom Boger, Apple’s senior director of Mac Product Marketing. “With a lower Bt31,900 student price for MacBook Air and the updated 13-inch MacBook Pro with faster performance, Touch Bar and Touch ID at Bt38,900 for students, there’s never been a better time to bring a Mac to college.”
MacBook Air features a thin and light design in a choice of three finishes, the convenience and security of Touch ID, an 8th-generation dual-core processor, immersive wide stereo sound and all-day battery life. Its 13-inch Retina display now features True Tone that automatically adjusts the colour temperature of the display for a more comfortable viewing experience. MacBook Air is designed to power through daily tasks, from email and web surfing, to photo editing and FaceTime calls, and at an even lower price, it’s the do-it-all notebook for consumers and students alike.
The 13-inch MacBook Pro packs powerful processors, super-fast SSDs, all-day battery life and the best Mac notebook display ever into a portable and lightweight design. Now the entry-level 13-inch MacBook Pro adds the latest quad-core processors for up to two times faster performance, Touch Bar and Touch ID, True Tone to the Retina display, the Apple T2 Security Chip and immersive stereo speakers with wide stereo sound, all at the same great starting price of B42,900, or Bt38,900 for college students. With all these powerful features, MacBook Pro is the perfect choice for students heading into college and looking for the notebook that will help power them through graduation and beyond.
In autumn, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro entertainment apps, Apple Music, Apple Podcasts and the Apple TV app as well as the all-new Sidecar feature, will enables users to extend their Mac desktop by using their iPad as a second display or as a high-precision input device. New security features keep users better protected and Voice Control lets users control their Mac entirely with their voice.
Both models are now available through apple.com/th, the Apple Store app and in selected Apple Stores and Apple Authorised Resellers later this week. Additional technical specifications, configure-to-order options and accessories are available online at apple.com/th/mac.
