The new, cheaper, MacBook Air includes ~35% slower SSD compared to 2018 model

<p>The Retina MacBook Air (https://amzn.to/2jXPxJv) was refreshed last week (https://9to5mac.com/2019/07/09/apple-updates-retina-macbook-air-adds-true-tone-lowers-price-to-1099-999-for-students/) with a new price and the addition of a True Tone display. The refresh was minor, with the same CPUs as 2018, but a $100 cheaper price point: the 2019 MacBook Air starts at $1099 from Apple, with $999 student pricing.</p>
<p>It turns out that one downside to this latest revision is that the laptop actually features slower solid state storage than the 2018 model.</p>
