All sockets are found exclusively on the case's right and left far back. Otherwise, Apple uses the same ports as in the 2011 predecessor.
They are neither colored nor are they marked with the "SS" logo for Super Speed. The new USB 3.0 ports are not evident on the device itself. The next modification in the 2012 generation compared with the MacBook Air becomes apparent when looking at the ports or better said when looking at the spec sheet. The MagSafe to MagSafe 2 converter costs 10 Euros (~$13) in Apple's shop. But Apple would not be Apple if an adapter were not available - naturally for a surcharge. However, owners of the previous model can no longer simply continue using their present PSU. It is flatter and wider, which is not actually a problem. The shape of the well-tried magnetic power socket used in many generations - called MagSafe - has been changed.
There is one modification compared with the predecessor though. But our review of the Apple MacBook Air 13-inch 2010 is basically still valid. The smaller MacBook Air 11's lid makes a more stable impression and the base unit's pressure resistance is improved. Merely the very thin display lid could be a bit more rigid. There was not really much to be improved anyway. Apple still relies on the extremely slim aluminum unibody case in matte silver. It is the third generation with this case. No differences are seen at first glance when the latest MacBook Air is placed beside its roughly one year old precursor. So, everything has been left as it was, or maybe not? The other equipment: a 4 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD, and 13.3-inch screen with a native resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels. The cores are fired up to 2.8 GHz via Turbo Boost and both cores can be clocked with a maximum of 2.6 GHz simultaneously. It is Intel's dual-core i5-3427U with a default clock of 1.8 GHz in the preconfigured models. Like in the precursors, Intel's ultra-low voltage CPU is inside the latest model, but this time from the new Ivy Bridge range. We have the basic configuration of the larger two Air models in for review – the Apple MacBook Air featuring a 1.8 GHz Core i5. In any case, the new generation can now be ordered. Apple is virtually a latecomer with its new MacBooks. The CPUs made in a structure width of 22 nanometers called Ivy Bridge unleashed an avalanche of notebook innovations. The reason for the launch of a new MacBook Air generation - as always named after the market launch date: Mid 2012 - was of course the introduction of Intel's new mobile processors. The Air remains one of the thinnest and highest quality notebooks on the market, including some Apple-typical faults.
The Americans have not changed anything about the fundamental orientation in the latest model. Since the Late 2010 generation, Apple's extremely thin subnotebooks made of an aluminum block have been experiencing a veritable triumph.

In the shadow of the MacBook Pro 15 Retina introduced at the World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2012, the new MacBook Air almost played a walk-on role.
