Apple MacBook Air 15 M3 评测 - 大型日常 MacBook 的升级版Apple
去年年中，Apple ，推出了更大尺寸的 MacBook Air 15，与我们的预期完全一致：更大的 MacBook Air 拥有更大的屏幕空间，由于采用了相同的被动散热技术，性能也不相上下。现在，这款大屏幕 Air 首次升级到新的 M3 处理器，并安装了新的 Wi-Fi 模块，但除此之外，它几乎和原来一样。
Apple 入门级机型配备 8 GB 内存和 256 GB 固态硬盘，售价高达 1299 美元。现在又多了一款预配置机型（我们的评测设备），配备 16GB 内存和 512GB SSD，售价 1699 美元。这样做的好处是，在许多商店里，预配置机型的价格往往会降低。

外壳 - Midnight MacBook 现在配备了全新涂层
说到 MacBook Air 15 的设计和外壳质量，基本上没有什么变化。与前代产品一样，这款更大的 Air 比 MBA 13 更薄，这也是为什么该设备的重量（1.5 千克）在你第一次拿起它时会让你大吃一惊的原因。在实际使用中，由于底座太平，坚硬的前边缘不会给手腕带来不适。制造质量依然出色，稳定性也是如此。最大开启角度为 135 度。
Apple 在颜色方面，我们依然采用了我们熟悉的四种颜色（银色、太空灰、北极星和午夜）。深蓝色的 "午夜 "款在产品照片上看起来特别漂亮，但很快就暴露出它是一个指纹磁铁，很难保持表面清洁。新的 M3 机型（午夜版）采用了与黑色 MacBook Pro 14/16 相同的阳极氧化涂层。这有助于减少指纹问题，这也是我们在新款 MacBook Air 13.不过，我们的极地之星评测样机等轻薄版本在这方面更具优势。
Air 15 的重量仅为 1.5 千克，仅次于 LG Gram(990克），但Apple 的笔记本电脑在一定程度上是最薄的设备。35 瓦的电源适配器又带来了 184 克的重量。
我们又拍摄了一些新款三星Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 的对比照片（我们的评测将很快发布），它是目前 M3 MacBook Air 15 的竞争对手之一。Galaxy Book4 的 16 英寸 OLED 屏幕稍大一些，但直接对比不难发现，由于屏幕底部边框较厚，浪费了大量空间。这也使三星笔记本电脑的机身明显更深；此外，它的底座也比Apple 的要厚得多。
功能 - 现在您可以控制两个显示屏
端口方面没有变化。除了电源适配器的 MagSafe 接口外，左侧仍有两个 USB-C 端口（4.0），仍然只支持 Thunderbolt 3。右侧只有 3.5 毫米音频接口，我们希望能看到另一个 USB 端口。15 英寸机型的闲置空间更为明显。
不过，有一项新功能。到目前为止 MacBook Air 15 M2除了内置面板外，只能控制一个外接显示器。M3 SoC 的硬件要求相同，这意味着它只能控制两台显示器，但当显示器盖子关闭时，现在可以使用两台外接显示器（1 台最高 6K/60 Hz，1 台最高 5K/60 Hz）。当然，这还不够完美，但绝对是一个进步，如果你想使用两台显示器，它可以让你的使用体验完全不同。
我们用 MBA 13 和两台外接显示器（一台通过 USB-C，一台通过 USB-C/HDMI 适配器）试用了这项新功能，效果非常好。我们使用 MacBook Pro 14 M3也将在未来某个时候通过软件更新获得这一功能。
交流
Apple 更新了 Wi-Fi 模块，现在它支持频率为 160 MHz 的 Wi-Fi 6E 和蓝牙 5.3。与我们的华硕参考路由器搭配使用，效果立竿见影，因为新款 MacBook Air M3 现在的速度是前代产品的两倍。 速度的两倍与更大的 MacBook Pro 机型不相上下。

网络摄像头
在光线充足的情况下，1080p 网络摄像头仍能拍摄出不错的照片，麦克风也没有任何问题。您还可以选择将 iPhone 用作网络摄像头。
维护
与之前的情况一样，只要使用合适的十字螺丝刀，就可以卸下机箱下盖。不过，由于没有风扇，而且所有元件都是焊接的，所以最终还是可以省去拆卸的麻烦。如果需要，可以更换粘合的电池，但这有点麻烦，只能由合格的维修人员来完成。
输入设备 - 出色的触控板
与 MacBook Air M2 相比，输入设备没有任何变化。键盘的质量虽然没有达到高级商务笔记本电脑的水平，但总的来说，键盘输入准确，输入舒适。Touch ID 指纹扫描仪的工作仍然无可挑剔，而且多年来，Apple ，由于其多级亮度设置和自动适应环境光线的能力，在白色键盘背光方面一直是值得追赶的公司。
大尺寸触控板仍然是移动领域的典范，它与 macOS 的集成也非常出色。有了 Force Touch，点击在任何地方都是一样的，声音也不会太大，此外，手势操作也实现得非常完美。与往常一样，MacBook Air 没有配备触摸屏。
显示屏 - P3 覆盖的 IPS
对于 Air，Apple 仍然选择使用 15.6 英寸 IPS 屏幕。分辨率为 2,880 x 1,864 像素，有点奇怪。额外的 64 个垂直像素用于凹槽旁边的区域。这看起来仍然不是特别好，但并没有侵蚀 16:10 面板的实际空间。
该面板的主观画质依然非常出色。色彩鲜艳，内容清晰，macOS 也依然没有出现缩放问题。不过，在刷新率方面，我们希望能升级到 120 Hz，因为我们使用的仍然是 60 Hz 的面板。响应时间并不突出，在日常使用中也不会出现重影现象。没有 PWM，屏幕亮度和色温都能自动适应环境光线。
我们在显示屏中部测得的最大亮度为 525 cd/m²，平均亮度略高于 500 cd/m²。然而，0.37 cd/m² 的黑色值非常高，这就是为什么与 OLED 或微型 LED 面板相比，暗色内容永远不会呈现全黑的原因。对比度为 1.400:1。与 MacBook Air 13 不同的是，较大的 Air 15 并不存在漏光问题。

虽然 Macbook Air 的显示屏是亮面的，但它不像大多数配备 OLED 面板或触摸屏的 Windows 笔记本电脑那样反光。这意味着，只要阳光不直接照射到屏幕上，你仍然可以在明亮的环境中顺利工作。可视角度稳定性非常好。
性能 - Air 15 始终配备速度更快的 M3 SoC
与较小的 MacBook Air 13 不同，15 英寸机型只提供 M3 SoC 及其更快的 10 核图形处理器。此外，你还可以选择 8、16 或 24 GB 的焊接内存和最大容量为 2 TB 的固态硬盘。电源适配器（35 瓦或 70 瓦）的选择不会影响 MacBook Air M3 的性能。
Prozessor -Apple M3 in 3 nm
M3 SoC Apple M3 SoC是Apple 首款采用 3 纳米工艺制造的芯片。其内核配置与旧的 M2 SoC但由于改进了制造工艺，Apple 能够在不大幅增加功耗的情况下提高时钟频率。现在，四个性能内核的最高主频为 4.056 GHz（或当所有内核都处于紧张状态时约为 3.6 GHz），而四个效率内核的最高主频为 2.748 GHz。在多核测试中，处理器的功耗短暂达到约 21 瓦，然后下降并最终稳定在约 12 瓦（R23 多核：9085 点意味着减少约 12%）。这使得性能下降幅度低于 MacBook Air 13。在简短测试中，性能与 MacBook Pro 14 M3当然，由于采用了主动散热技术，性能保持稳定。
与旧版 M2 SoC 相比，性能平均提高了约 20%。结果是，在多核测试中，M3 SoC 的速度普遍低于其 16 英寸竞争对手，CPU 的功耗是后者的四倍。
在单核测试中，Apple ，性能比 M2 提高了 20%，从而缩小了与英特尔和 AMD 的差距。只有部分酷睿 i9 CPU 仍有优势。这些都是令人印象深刻的结果，尤其是考虑到 5 瓦多一点的低单核功耗。在我们的分析文章中，我们已经对 M3 SoC 的效率进行了分析。 分析文章中.在电池模式下，MacBook Air 15 M3 的 CPU 性能保持稳定。其他 CPU 基准测试 这里.

系统性能
在日常使用中，旧款 MacBook Air 15 M2已经是一款速度极快的设备，M3 SoC 也是如此。最重要的是，在本地应用程序中，它的性能非常出色，而在合成基准测试中，新款 MacBook Air 15 M3 几乎总是领先于 Windows 竞争产品。
基于英特尔处理器的 Mac 应用程序可以通过 Rosetta 2 进行模拟，效果非常好。虽然在速度上存在差异（尤其是在复杂的应用程序上），但运行起来同样完美无瑕。人工智能是当前非常热门的话题，而Apple 也在其神经引擎中安装了 NPU，自 M1 芯片并将其用于信息中的单词预测。喜欢使用包括 Copilot 在内的微软办公套件的用户不必担心这个问题，因为该功能是通过云提供的，这意味着与 Windows 设备没有区别。

大容量存储器
与 Pro 机型不同，Apple 的 Air 采用了 PCIe 3.0 固态硬盘。我们的评测设备安装了 512 GB 版本（AP0512Z），其传输速度达到了预期水平，最高可达 3.5 GB/s。在日常使用中，这意味着没有任何限制。同样，我们预计 256 GB 型号的性能会大大降低（约 50%），我们将尽快对其进行检查。首次启动后，用户有 465 GB 的可用空间。Air M3 可配置最大容量为 2 TB 的固态硬盘。其他固态硬盘基准测试 这里.
图形卡
我们的评测设备配备了 10 核 M3 GPU，我们已经熟悉了它。 MacBook Pro 14 M3.最大功耗约为 15 瓦，性能基本与 MacBook Pro 相同。不过，在连续负载情况下，Air 的性能也会略有下降。在 3DMark WildLife Extreme 压力测试中，运行 20 次后，Air 的性能下降了约 17%，这使它比较小的 MBA 13 M3 更稳定。 更小的 MBA 13.在图形处理器性能方面，我们也观察到与旧的 10 核 M2 图形处理器相比有 20% 的优势。在电池模式下，图形处理性能保持不变，更多基准测试请点击这里。
MacBook 上的游戏速度正在慢慢加快，《全面战争：法老》或《博德之门 3》等游戏都可以在 MacBook 上运行。但是，《博德之门 3》在高分辨率下的要求过高，这意味着你必须激活 FSR。这样即使在 1080p/high 下也能达到 35fps 左右。不过，使用 FSR 时，至少应选择 "质量"设置，否则图形质量会受到明显影响。古墓丽影》或Witcher 3 等模拟游戏也能在 MacBook 上运行，但根据游戏名称的不同，可能会有一些限制，性能也会受到一定影响。

噪音排放
与速度相当的 Windows 设备相比，MacBook Air 15 的最大优势仍然是其被动散热。无论你用它做什么（使用两台外接显示器时也是如此），它始终是静音的，没有任何电子噪音。

压力测试
在综合负载情况下，新款 MacBook Air 15 M3 的性能比前代产品略胜一筹，而且较大的机型还能比较小的机型更长时间地保持这种性能。与 MacBook Air 13 M3一样，MacBook 现在优先考虑 GPU 性能，而它的前代产品 前代产品CPU 和 GPU 之间的关系更为平衡。
发言人
大型 MacBook Air 继续提供 6 扬声器音响系统，音效依然非常宽敞和出色。体积较大的 MacBook Pro 16在这方面提供了更好的效果，但考虑到 Air 的底座非常纤薄，其音效也非常出色。

在全亮度条件下，功耗比旧型号略高一些（全亮度条件下约为 1 瓦），但最大亮度仅略有提高。在负载情况下，35 瓦的电源适配器再次成为限制因素，在使用功率更大的电源适配器进行压力测试之初，我们测得的功耗为 66 瓦，随后稳步下降。在使用 35 瓦电源适配器时，电池必须对差异进行补偿。

电池寿命
电池容量仍为 66.5 Wh，Wi-Fi 在 150 cd/m² 下的运行时间约为 17 小时（最大亮度降低了 7 大级和 3 小级），比上一代产品长了几分钟。微星 Prestige 16 能比前者多出约 80 分钟，但电池容量也大了约 50%。在全屏亮度下，我们记录了 6 小时 40 分钟，比旧款短了半小时，全屏亮度下的空闲耗电量略高。我们将在稍后提供进一步的电池运行时间。
在打开笔记本电脑的情况下，随机提供的 35 瓦电源适配器只需要不到 3 个小时就能为设备完全充电。如果使用功率更大的电源适配器，这个时间可以缩短到 2 小时左右。

评语：MacBook Air 15 从 M3 中获益，但价格依然昂贵
MacBook Air 15 M3 没有给人带来任何惊喜，虽然它配备了 M3 SoC 和更快的 Wi-Fi 模块，但并不值得升级。 MacBook Air 15 M2 - 相比，它并不值得升级。与较小的 MacBook Air 13 M3 不同的是，不得不说的是，总体而言，竞争对手的多核性能更好，而且只要安装了专用显卡，在图形处理性能方面就能享受到优势。然而，这并不是 Air 的目标，Apple ，继续努力保持与 Pro 机型的距离。这一点在端口数量有限的情况下尤为明显。
不过，MacBook Air 的优势也是显而易见的，因为它非常纤薄，而且由于采用了被动散热技术，设备始终保持静音。目前还没有任何一款被动散热的 Windows 设备能达到这样的性能指标。当然，也有其他设备能提供更高的性能、更好的屏幕或更长的电池续航时间，但通常不会集于一身。毋庸置疑，Air 并不是每个用户的理想选择。但是，如果你正在寻找一款能够处理日常任务的设备，那么你就必须努力从其他制造商那里找到一款性能相当、功能齐全的产品。
Apple MacBook Air 15 采用 M3 处理器，速度更快。尽管价格仍然很高，而且你不得不在某些方面（如端口）做出妥协，但如果你正在寻找一款适合日常使用的大屏幕、持续静音的伴侣，那么你会再次发现它是一款非常出色和全面的产品。
说到显示屏，Apple ，虽然速度缓慢，但确实有些落后于竞争对手。IPS 面板的图像质量仍然不错，PWM 也没有出现。不过，对于一款高端设备来说，60 Hz 的频率已经不能算是最新的了，同样也不支持 HDR 内容。M3 处理器的性能也没有完全保持稳定，但情况要比较小的 MacBook Air M3 稍好一些。Windows 系统的竞争对手在使用一段时间后也会出现性能下降，尤其是在多核情况下。
基本机型的价格为 1,299 美元，配备 8 GB 内存和 256 GB 固态硬盘。对于简单的任务来说，这个价格也许足够了，但它已经跟不上时代的步伐了。我们的评测机则有趣得多，因为它配备了 16 GB 内存和 512 GB 固态硬盘。最重要的是，它现在是预配置机型（以前只有 8/256 GB 和 8/512 GB），而且该机型现在还将作为标准版，届时也将打折。新款 Air 在发布时已经有了更便宜的价格。
价格和供应情况
全新 MacBook Air 15 M3 现已上市。我们的评测配置零售价为 1,699 美元，可在Apple .com 上购买。.基本型号在亚马逊的售价为 1,299 美元。
