So M3 is around the corner, and Apple just released this 15 inch MBA with an almost 1-year-old chip.

I know for MBA performance doesn’t technically matter, but I am quite curious about what efficiency improvements M3 (3nm) could bring.

What do you think about the timing of this 15-inch MBA? Is it a good deal?

Yes, they just refreshed it. I don't imagine seeing an M3 MacBook Air this year, to be honest. I would expect an update early 2024, just my opinion from the rumors.

The M2 Air, and even the M1 Air, kick ass. Battery life may be better with M3, but it's damn good now.
