Apple made a hardware announcement at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference, debuting the first look at the redesigned MacBook Air. Of course, the other hardware element was the debut of Apple's new M2 chip, which powers the new machine. Unfortunately for folks who want the new laptop, it's been a bit of a waiting game as Apple plans to launch the laptop sometime in July.
Next-generation Apple M3 chips will reportedly debut in 2023 inside the company's MacBook Air laptops, including a new 15-inch model. It should also power a new iMac all-in-one desktop and appear in a rumored new Apple notebook which should come equipped with a 12-inch display said to be similar to the company's discontinued 12-inch MacBook notebook.
At WWDC 2022, Tim Cook and team announced the all new MacBook Air. The new, thin form factor boasts a Midnight blue color way that seems inspired by iPhone. Sized to be even smaller, the new design has 20% less volume than the previous models, at less than .5 inches thin. The hidden upgrade is an all new M2 Apple silicon chipset. With the new marketing materials come incredible, M2 MacBook Air wallpaper and these inspired designs for iPhone.
Any given year, there are a variety of different rumors swirling around at any given time regarding upcoming products from Apple. But this year, and especially right now, it certainly feels like the rumor mill is bursting at the seams regarding devices the company is working on. Especially in the laptop category.
Is Apple going to launch a brand new 12-inch laptop sometime in the near future? It's certainly a possibility, in the sense it's Apple we're talking about and they can basically do whatever they want when it comes to launching new hardware. And there are certainly plenty of rumors out there suggesting just that. But at least one analyst isn't so sure.
At this year's Worldwide Developers Conference, Apple showed off new hardware in the form of a brand new, redesigned MacBook Air. But, of course, the wheel keeps turning, and product development is a never-ending process. Which means there are new products on the way! Including, apparently, yet another new MacBook Air.
The MacBook Air is getting a new entry to its lineup. It's one of the most popular laptops out there in the market, and easily one of the strongest products for Apple's laptop segment. Today, we get a redesigned MacBook Air with the new M2 processor under the hood.
Two new Mac computers powered by Apple silicon could be unveiled at WWDC, claims a source, one of which could be a redesigned MacBook Air notebook.
A 15-inch MacBook Air is apparently launching in 2023, but Apple might not call it "Air." As for a 20221 MacBook Air redesign, it may include a slightly larger screen.
Some rumors just refuse to die. They might go dormant for a long stretch of time, but there's always a possibility we'll hear about some unreleased product again. Take, for example, a 15-inch MacBook Air that we heard about back in January of last year. Well, now it's back in the news cycle!
The current M1 MacBook Air should soon get a new design and more color options but don't expect Apple to swap the M1 chip for an upcoming M2 processor.
It hasn't happened yet, but word on the street is that in the very near future Apple is going to launch a brand new, redesigned MacBook Air. One of the talking points is that the new design will drop the tapered shell that Apple has used since the MacBook Air's debut. Another, though, is that Apple is going to add some color to the lineup.
