Apple first revealed the MacBook Air M2 in mid-2022. This shiny new Mac features a redesigned chassis and overhauled internals with support for macOS Sonoma. It now has a more boxed design, wider range of color options, clearer webcam, and more. If you grab one, make sure to check our list of best apps for Apple silicon Macs. These applications are designed and optimized specifically for the expanding family of Apple M chipsets. You may also want to buy accessories that match the color of your new MacBook Air. This way your entire setup appears as a default set offered by Apple — rather than something you've built by yourself. Below you will find a list of the best accessories that match the color of your MacBook Air M2.

  • New Project-12
    Apple Watch Milanese Loop
    Silver Milanese Loop

    The Milanese Loop for your Apple Watch uses strong magnets to attach to itself when you buckle it. It's fancy and formal-looking, but it lacks water-resistance.

  • New Project-59
    Bestand Aluminum Stand
    Silver MacBook stand

    This aluminum stand is ideal for those who want to lift and tilt their MacBooks to get that perfect working angle. It also has silicone pads to avoid scratching your Mac and resist slips.

  • New Project-3-1
    Apple Watch Sport Band
    Starlight Sport Band

    The Sport Band comes in over half a dozen of color options and isn't custom-sized. It offers a water-resistant, flexible build.

  • New Project-2-3
    Apple USB-C to Magsafe 3 cable
    Starlight MagSafe cable

    If you've damaged the original, or maybe just like keeping a spare cable around, this official one matches the color of your MacBook Air. It has a braided build and offers two meters of length.

  • New Project-3-2
    Apple HomePod mini
    Space Gray HomePod Mini

    The Apple HomePod Mini is an affordable, Siri-enabled speaker that offers plenty of neat smart features, including temperature and humidity monitoring. However, you should only get one if you're in the Apple ecosystem.

  • New Project-28
    Apple AirPods Max
    Space Gray AirPods Max

    The AirPods Max come with active noise cancelation and Dolby Atmos support. Thanks to their large over-ear cups, they offer an immersive audio experience.

  • Apple Silicone Case
    Apple Silicone iPhone 14 Pro Case
    Midnight iPhone case

    Featuring a silky, soft-touch exterior, this official silicone case feels great to hold, and it has a microfiber interior for extra protection. It's also available in a wide selection of beautiful colors.

  • New Project-8-2
    Apple Watch Leather Link
    Midnight Leather Link

    This Venezia Leather Link for the Apple Watch comes from Arzignano, Italy. You just wrap it around your arm, and the magnets keep it in place. Though, keep in mind that it's not waterproof, so you should not swim or bathe while wearing it.

Our favorite MacBook Air M2 accessories

I personally got the Midnight MacBook Air M2. However, the Midnight color option isn't available for many of Apple's products. So when choosing a HomePod Mini and a pair of AirPods Max, I had to settle for Space Gray — as it's the darkest available color and the closest to Midnight. Though, I was able to find a matching Midnight Apple Watch Series 7. Otherwise, most of my accessories settle for the Space Gray color — which almost matches my MacBook Air.

The MacBook Air includes the M2 chip, a more powerful and efficient upgrade to the original M1 processor — which debuted in 2020. It has a notched display, but it still lacks Face ID capabilities. Nonetheless, the webcam gets a very welcome 1080p upgrade, a big step from the 720p one on its predecessor. That's not to mention the return of MagSafe 3 charging support. You can get your hands on a base unit for $1,099.
