After a lot of rumors and questions of when it was coming, Apple finally unveiled a 15-inch MacBook Air during WWDC on Monday. It's a larger model to follow the 13-inch version that was launched last year, dubbed the world's best selling laptop by Ternus during the event.

The 15.4-inch screen on the MacBook Air features 500 nits of brightness, rich and vibrant images, a 1080p camera and 3-microphone array, and six speakers, including four woofers for improved sound.
