Friday is the official launch day of Apple's new M2 powered MacBook Air, and as customers who pre-ordered begin to receive their purchases, Apple has also begun in-store sales.

Customers in Europe and Asia can place an order on Apple's website or in the Apple Store app and have it shipped to them.

Most stores in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland have stock for customers today, although there are exceptions.

The Apple store in Scotland has a similar wait time for online orders as it does for in-store pickup.

Australian stores won't receive stock for any configurations until Monday or Tuesday, which is similar to delays in European stores. Stores in the U.S. and Canada will soon be able to offer in-store pickup.

Key features of the new MacBook Air include Apple's latest M2 chip, a new design with flatter edges, a slightly larger 13.6-inch display with a notch, MagSafe charging, and an upgraded1080p camera.

The notebook has a 3.5mm headphone jack with support for high-impedance headphones.

The price for the new MacBook Air is $1,100. The notebook has a choice of up to 24GB of unified memory and up to 2 terabytes of solid state storage. The previous MacBook Air with the M1 chip is still available
