Can anyone tell me which year Apple used the i7-565 or the i5-525 in the MacBook Air 7,2 ?
I am looking to buy my first MacBook (has to be secondhand due to budget)
I know the Air 7,2 was produced between 2015 and 2017/18
but not which years had which chips.
thanks in advance

If the price is equal, I would definitely go with one of the MacBook Pro models. While they are a couple generations older, the CPU is at least equal or faster than the MacBook Air, and the all important RAM is 8gB as opposed to 4gB.
The MacTracker site below may help with the various models.
That model was from Early 2015 and again in 2017. These were the last two production periods of the new, pre-2018 model. Same CPUs in both.
2016 model:
| Processor | Intel Core i5 or Core i7 (5250U, 5650U) ("Broadwell") |
|---|
2017 model:
| Processor | Intel Core i5 or Core i7 (5350U, 5650U) ("Broadwell") |
|---|
The available processor speeds may help:
2015:
| Processor | Intel Core i5 or Core i7 (5250U, 5650U) ("Broadwell") |
|---|---|
| Processor Speed | 1.6 GHz (Core i5) or 2.2 GHz (Core i7) |
2017:
| Processor | Intel Core i5 or Core i7 (5350U, 5650U) ("Broadwell") |
|---|---|
| Processor Speed | 1.8 GHz (Core i5) or 2.2 GHz (Core i7) |
Thanks. š-1F3FB; Your right, that would help šunfortunetly, the site Iām looking at the macās on only gives the variant, the cpu, ram and storage Though š
Iām looking for something light and portable, and will also be covered for osās as far past Mojave as possible.
are the air 7,2s still good?
I currently have an iPad.
I donāt game or edit vids to upload to YouTube,
i email, watch YouTube, And Netflix.
iām looking for a Mac to be able to drop cds into iTunes and iTunes Match (external cd drive is expected to be needed)
And the fuller web Browser experiance Ofcause āŗ
if you were looking, and one of these three were within you budget, which would you go for?
Apple Macbook Air 7,2 with i5-5250U 4gab ram and 256gb ssd
Apple MacBook Pro 11,1 with i5-4278U 8gb ram and 128gb ssd
Apple MacBook Pro 11,1 with i5 4308u 8gb ram and 128gb ssd
the prices are about the same. both the 7,2 with the 256 ssd and the pro with the i5 - 4278U are Ā£585
the pro with the i5- 4308U is Ā£580
any idea which year these two proās are from? Would I be right in thinking they would be the late 2013 model? rather than the mid 2014 ones? Or does it work the same with these as it did with the airās?
and are the proās much bigger and heavier than the airās? (Iām such a noob š)
ah ha, š-1F3FB; between the
Pro 11,1 with i5-4278U
Pro 11,1 with i5 4308U
is one setup better than the other?
and were there any known issues with these models like the keybord issue and heat exchange problems that were all over YT Not so long ago?
Both the Pro models are Mid 2014, with different processor options.
The screenshot below is from MacTracker.
Ah, so the i5 / i7 -# Code Wouldnāt necessarily identify the year then?
