But I want to hang with this fan noise for another minute because its whirring encapsulates the most important thing to know about this MacBook Air. I’d rather jump into all the many good things there are to talk about: the pixel density on the new display, smaller bezels, Touch ID, the T2 security chip, a larger trackpad, and a smaller design. That fan is a weird place to start when talking about the new $1,199 MacBook Air.
Still, fan or not, the computer is handling everything I’m doing just fine, and a quick restart of the app quiets it down. (In this case, it’s TweetDeck going rogue.) But it’s also a sound you don’t hear on more futuristic computers like the iPad, the Surface Pro, or even the Pixelbook. It’s a familiar sound: a computer trying to cool down a processor that’s being overtaxed by one of the eight or so apps I have running. The fan is blowing on this brand-new MacBook Air with Retina Display.
