Thankfully, it comes with a different keyboard. Apple has swapped the disastrous butterfly keyboard for its Magic Keyboard instead (as seen on the 16-inch MacBook Pro).
With the scissor mechanism on the Magic Keyboard, you'll have only 1mm of key travel to create a more comfortable and durable feel.
Apple has also thrown in a few additional features like a three-mic array so you can hear those FaceTime calls more clearly, a Force Touch trackpad, and two Thunderbolt 3 ports.
For the first time ever, the MacBook Air also offers support for up to a 6K external display.
You can order the MacBook Air starting today, from Apple's site or the Apple Store app.
The company mentions in its press release that it'll also be available in stores starting next week.
But those of you in the U.S. will just have to order it online, given the fact that its stores are closed until further notice due to the coronavirus outbreak.
