Ars thought the scrappy 11.6 - incher “ stole the show ” :

The machine is much netbook - sized ( but do n’t tell Steve Jobs or Tim Cook we tell that , as they seem to have a seething hatred for netbooks ) , but has a full - sized keyboard and almost - full - sized trackpad . The 13.3″ example seemed like a monster by comparing , though as a premature MacBook Air owner , I really like the new design .
Some ( but not all ) doubt from our readers were answered by the Apple PR citizenry tolerate by . Yes , both Air models come with glistening screens , and you’re able to get them both with either 2 G or 4 GB of RAM built in . you may not kick upstairs the RAM though - you must rank it at the capacity you want it , or else you ’re out of luck .
The “ instant on ” capabilities that Steve Jobs swash during the event are indeed sweet , but the feature only act from standby - it ’s not quite so crying if you power the machine off .

SlashGear saysthat they ’re “ tricky , beautiful political machine that will probably persuade many Apple Store shoppers just from a quick play in - store . ” Also :
The 11.6 - inch Air is implausibly thin , just like an iPhone 4 at its narrow-minded point at the front . Nonetheless , it ’s also solid and bend - free , and the keyboard is as easy to expend as a even MacBook Pro . The presentation is Apple ’s first 16:9 aspect panel , as is the 13.3 - in model .
The liberal MacBook Air has bigger function tonality than its smaller sibling , but both index up almost instantly ; essentially , as soon as you have the screen open to a available slant , OS X is quick and waiting for you .

They were n’t kidding about that iPhone 4 thing .
Engadget saysthe 11.6″ version is the “ midget , thinnest , most lust - suitable laptops we ’ve ever seen . ” As for the 13″ version :
It decidedly sense significantly bigger than the 11 - incher , and we noticed the function key fruit are stock MacBook size , as oppose to the shrivelled ones on the 11 . We also note that it was seriously instant - on — we popped the palpebra exposed and closed several sentence while taking exposure , and it was ready to go the second we opened it .

Over at Forbes , Brian Caulfied allege they do indeed boot up like lightning :
Apple ’s letting the press paw these new machines decently now , and the metallic element - skin machines look sleek , of course . They ’re Macs . The most remarkable feature of speech , however , is n’t cosmetic , it ’s these machine ’s boot fourth dimension .
Bootup takes less than 15 seconds , according to my lookout . That ’s a just deal less than the roughly 50 seconds it takes my trusty Windows laptop to come to aliveness .
