The Newly Launched MacBook Airs and Mac Minis: A Comprehensive Review

In this video review, Ranit from tech.com takes us through the newly launched MacBook Airs and Mac Minis, highlighting their key features, improvements, and pricing. The reviewer starts by mentioning that they had previously discussed the launch of new Macbook A models last month, which has finally come to fruition with the launch of Lion.

One of the notable aspects of the new MacBook Airs is the lower pricing compared to their predecessors. Ranit visits Apple's website and reviews the catalog to provide us with more information about the new devices. He begins by examining the 11-inch base model, noting that its price has decreased from 61,000 earlier to approximately 57,000 now. Similarly, the 13-inch base model saw a significant drop in price from 80,000 to 74,000.

Both the 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Airs come equipped with the new Sandy Bridge processor, which is a generation of Core i processors. The base model for the 11-inch version features a 1.6 GHz Core i5 processor with just 2 GB of RAM. In contrast, the 13-inch base model comes with a more powerful 1.7 GHz Core i5 processor and 4 GB of RAM, an upgrade from its earlier 2 GB of RAM.

Ranit also highlights another significant improvement in the new MacBook Airs: the addition of Thunderbolt ports, as well as backlit keyboards. The devices are pre-installed with Lion operating system, but unfortunately, they still feature SD-resolution FaceTime cameras, lacking HD resolution. Furthermore, Ranit shares some Geekbench scores for the 13-inch model, which range from 5,200 to 5,400 points, a respectable score for a MacBook Air.

In addition to the MacBook Airs, Ranit also reviews the updated Mac Minis. The pricing has decreased slightly compared to their earlier versions, with the base model now supporting the same Core i5 processor and 2 GB of RAM as before. However, an additional model priced around 45,000 features a more powerful 2.5 GHz Core i5 processor.

Ranit concludes his review by mentioning that he expects these new machines to be available in India by August 1st week. The devices are now ready for purchase, making them an attractive option for those waiting for the next upgrade.

In conclusion, Ranit's video review provides us with a comprehensive overview of the newly launched MacBook Airs and Mac Minis. From their improved pricing to their enhanced specifications, these devices offer a range of features that make them suitable for various needs.

talked about the launch of new Macbook a and they have been launched finally with the launch of lion so let's see what these new Macbook AIDS and the new uh Mac minis bring to the table the good thing is that the pricing for the new Macbook AIDS is lower than the predecessors so let's look at the details so we are at the Apple's website Apple India's website page and I'm going to go to their catalog and first we're going to look at the new Macbook AIDS uh as you can instantly see uh the pricing for the 11in base model and the 13in base model has come down let's first look at 11in model earlier 11in model was priced at 61,000 and now it's approximately 57,000 and the 13in base model was priced at 80,000 earlier now it's 74,000 so the priceing has come down considerably again uh both these MacBook Air supports the new Sandy Bridge processor that's the new generation core I processors and the base model for the 11 in comes with 1.6 GHz Core i5 processor but sadly it has just 2 GB of RAM and the 13-in based uh Edition comes with a 1.7 GHz Core i5 processor and this comes with 4GB of ram earlier the 13-in model just had had 2 GB of RAM so uh this base 13in is a pretty powerful machine in my opinion the other noticeable uh improvements in the 2011 edition MacBook Air is that now these puts the Thunderbolt Port we also get the back lighting for the keyboard and they have lion pre-installed but still the FaceTime camera on these new Macbook Air is SD resolution and not a HD camera and also I saw some geek Ben scores of these 13in uh new Macbook Air and they are in the range
