According to a report by Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, Apple is preparing a new series of Macs to launch in late spring and summer.
The most significant of the three would be a MacBook Air 15 inchbut a new Mac Pro update it would complete the Mac’s transition from Intel CPUs and AMD GPUs to Apple silicon, and a new 13-inch MacBook Air could also be expected. Apple is also said to be planning a new 24-inch iMac which may be the first of its Macs to use the chip New generation M3.
Il MacBook Air 15 inch would represent a new product category for Apple: a laptop with a larger screen that costs less than a MacBook Pro. Apple’s consumer portable computers, from the old iBook PowerPC to the first Intel MacBooks to the current MacBook Air, are all sizes between 11 and 13 inches. PowerBook and MacBook Pro models from 15 to 17 inches have always required an increase in CPU and GPU power which has pushed up the price; the cheapest MacBook Air starts at $999while the cheapest 16-inch MacBook Pro costs $2,499.
In the product range Apple there is plenty of room for an intermediate model between these two extremes, for those who want to have more screen real estate at the same time or for those who need larger text and images to be able to see them better.
Gurman’s report contains little detail on the NoMacBook Air 13 inch egg, besides the fact that it exists. It could be a new model with M3 chipalthough the M2 model was only released in July and the gap between the M1 and the M2 Air was about a year and a half. It could also be a notch-free $999 MacBook Air upgrade. M2-style version of the 13-inch MacBook Pro.
