The new sky blue MacBook Air really is blue. I know that there has been much debate about just how blue it really is. But now that I own one and have seen it in quite a few different lighting conditions, I can say for certain that this is more blue than silver to my eyes. I fully understand that there are some moments when it may look silver, but in most conditions I am looking at a delightfully light blue keyboard deck. Admiring it from afar while it is closed on my desk, it is clearly blue. I think folks are trying to grapple with the fact that we have all wanted more saturated colors by complaining about the new shade. Despite what you might have heard, it is distinctly new and fresh. At this point, I will take what Apple gives me especially when it isn’t silver or space gray. After all, it has been 24 years since a Mac notebook was available in blue.
