Which is the lightest MacBook?

3 MacBooks share the lightest figure, 0.92 kg: the MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, 2017), MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2016) and MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015).

The basis

The 64 laptops among the 100 Macs we track, each at the weight Apple states on the model’s own page. Apple gives one figure per model rather than per build and notes that weight varies by configuration; where it gives a second weight for a second chip, the note in the row quotes it. Macs at the same weight are listed together, newest first, which is an order, not a verdict.
