As expected, starting at 8:00 AM ET on Friday, July 8, customers can now preorder the newly redesigned MacBook Air model from Apple's website. The preorders have started about a month after the computer was announced at the company's WWDC 2022 keynote in parallel with the M2 13-inch MacBook Pro.
The new MacBook Air can be configured with 8GB, 16GB, and 24GB of unified memory. It can also be equipped with 512GB, 1TB, or 2TB of built-in SSD storage.
At preorder launch, standard configurations have availability for July 15. Anything custom won't arrive until at the earliest, August 2.

The new MacBook Air starts at $1,199 and tops out at about $2,499. Apple says that early preorders will arrive Friday, July 15. Additionally, it'll also appear in-store at Apple retail locations and other brick-and-mortar shops at the same time.
