Since its initial release in 2008, Apple’s MacBook Air has become a beloved staple of the tech world. But after years of sticking to its guns with a 13-inch screen, the laptop is finally getting a major upgrade. According to recent reports, a new MacBook Air model with a 15-inch display is in the works, and it’s expected to be released in the coming months.
The news comes from noted display analyst Ross Young, who recently tweeted that production of the 15-inch MacBook Air’s panel began in February of this year and has since increased. While an exact release date is not yet known, it’s speculated that the laptop will be introduced at the upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference in June.
But the screen size isn’t the only thing that’s changing. The new MacBook Air is rumored to be powered by the M2, M2 Pro, or M3 chips, a departure from the previous model’s Intel processors. And with the larger display, users can expect an even more immersive experience when streaming video, editing photos, or working on projects.
Of course, Apple hasn’t officially confirmed the existence of the new MacBook Air model, and it’s unclear how the company plans to introduce the laptop to the public without a spring event this year. But with its sleek design, powerful specs, and now a larger screen, the MacBook Air is poised to continue its reign as one of the most popular laptops on the market. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development from Apple.
