Apple offered 2GB DDR3 RAM laptops mainly in older MacBook Air models with Intel Core 2 Duo processors, suitable for light computing or upgrade purposes with compatible DDR3 kits.
Older MacBook Models with 2GB DDR3 RAM
The Apple MacBook Air (Intel Core 2 Duo, 13.3-inch) originally came with 2GB DDR3 RAM and a 120GB hard drive. This model is a lightweight, compact aluminum laptop suitable for basic office tasks, web browsing, and light productivity
Bestbuy. It was released several years ago, so it runs older versions of macOS and is no longer sold new through Apple retail channels. However, compatible units can be found via second-hand markets in India through platforms such as OLX or eBay.
RAM Upgrade Options
If you own or purchase a MacBook with 2GB DDR3 RAM, you can upgrade using compatible DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) memory kits. For the 13.3-inch MacBook 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo (model MB467LL/A), you can use 2x2GB DDR3 modules to reach 4GB, which significantly improves multitasking performance.

Upgrade kits are available online through Amazon India and other resellers.
Ensure the RAM matches the DDR3-1066 specification to ensure compatibility.
Upgrading RAM allows running slightly more modern macOS versions and improves performance for web browsing and lightweight productivity apps.
Availability and Pricing
New models with 2GB RAM are generally no longer produced by Apple. You'll mostly find used or refurbished versions on OLX, eBay, or other marketplaces.
Newer MacBook Air and Pro models start with 8GB–16GB unified memory, powered by M-series chips, which are not compatible with DDR3 upgrades.
Prices for second-hand Core 2 Duo MacBook Airs vary but generally range between INR 8,000 to 15,000 depending on condition and storage. Refurbished kits or upgrade modules can cost around INR 3,000 to 4,000 for 4GB DDR3-1066 RAM.
