For comparison’s sake, the MacBook Air (2018) started at $1,199 (£1,199, AU$1,849) when it hit the streets.

And second of all, the entry-level MacBook Air (2019) not only got a refresh, but it also received a price drop – it’s now down to $1,099 (£1,099, AU$1,699).

First of all, we weren’t really anticipating a refresh. When Apple first announced the new Apple MacBook Air 2019, it was great news for many reasons.
