At Computer Repairs Pronto we repair MacBook Air laptops of all generations. The team have been working on MacBook Airs since the original model came out back in 2008 and have seen every issue there is with these machines. We operate from a workshop near Castle Hill and service customers from across the Hills District.

The MacBook Air has changed significantly over the years. The early models from 2008-2017 were Intel based machines with upgradeable SSDs and in some cases RAM. The 2018-2020 models introduced the T2 chip and soldered components. Then Apple switched to their own M1, M2 and M3 chips from 2020 onwards. We work on all of these generations.

MacBook Air Models We Repair

We repair all MacBook Air models released from 2008 through to the current 2026 models. Below is a comprehensive list of the models we work on.

MacBook Air M3 (2026)

The latest MacBook Air with the M3 chip. Available in 13-inch and 15-inch sizes. These are still quite new so most repairs involve accidental damage like cracked screens or liquid spills. The M3 chip and memory are soldered to the logic board which limits some repair options but we can still handle most issues.

MacBook Air M2 (2022-2023)

The redesigned MacBook Air with the M2 chip featuring the new flat-edged design. Available in 13-inch and 15-inch. Common issues include screen damage, keyboard problems and battery degradation after a couple of years of use.

MacBook Air M1 (2020)

The first MacBook Air with Apple Silicon. This model marked a big change from Intel. The M1 chip is significantly faster than the Intel models it replaced. Common repairs include screen replacements, battery replacements and keyboard issues. Still a popular model that we see regularly.

Common MacBook Air Repairs

Screen Replacements

Cracked or damaged MacBook Air screens are one of the most common repairs we do. The Retina displays on newer models are particularly prone to damage from pressure on the lid or impacts. We replace complete display assemblies with quality parts. Turnaround is usually same day or next day depending on parts availability.

Battery Replacements

MacBook Air batteries typically last 3-5 years before they start to degrade significantly. Signs of a worn battery include reduced runtime, slow performance, and the Service Battery warning. We can replace MacBook Air batteries on all models. The battery is glued in on newer models which makes it a bit more involved to replace.

Keyboard Repairs

The butterfly keyboard on 2018-2020 MacBook Air models was notorious for problems with keys not working or repeating. Apple had a keyboard replacement program for these but that has now ended. We can still repair or replace problematic keyboards. The M1 and later models went back to the scissor switch design which is more reliable.

Logic Board Repairs

Logic board issues can be caused by liquid damage, power surges, or component failure. We do component level repairs where possible which can save money compared to full board replacement. For liquid damaged boards we clean and assess damage before providing repair options.

SSD Upgrades and Data Recovery

On older MacBook Air models (2012-2017) we can upgrade the SSD to a larger capacity. This is a great way to extend the life of an older machine. For models with soldered storage we can help with data recovery if the drive has failed.

Charging Issues

MacBook Airs that wont charge could have issues with the charging port, logic board, or battery. Older models use MagSafe connectors which can wear out. Newer models use USB-C which is generally more reliable but can still have issues. We diagnose charging problems and repair or replace components as needed.

Trackpad Repairs

MacBook Air trackpads can fail or become unresponsive. On newer models the trackpad uses Force Touch technology. We repair and replace trackpads on all models. Sometimes trackpad issues are caused by a swollen battery pushing up from underneath.

MacBook Air vs MacBook Pro

Not sure if you have a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro? The Air is the thinner lighter model designed for everyday use. The Pro is thicker with better performance and on recent models has more ports. You can check your model by clicking the Apple menu and selecting About This Mac.

Turnaround Times

Most MacBook Air repairs can be completed within 1-3 days depending on parts availability. Simple repairs like RAM upgrades on older models or software fixes can often be done same day. More complex repairs like logic board work may take longer. We provide an estimated timeframe when you drop off your machine.

Warranty on Repairs

All MacBook Air repairs come with a warranty on parts and labour. If something goes wrong with the repair we fix it at no additional cost.
