Ross Young, CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, who has had a very good track record of predicting Apple products, says Apple is working on new 13.6- and 15.2-inch screens for the next MacBook Air. The 13.6-inch model would be a slight increase in size compared to the current 13.3-inch model, while the 15.2-inch model would be a completely new product. The last time Apple introduced two MacBook Air models was in 2010 when it unveiled an 11-inch model. BTW, 2023 Apple 15 “MacBook / Air will actually be 15.2″… – Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) March 25, 2022 Young also told Macrumors that the new screens will not feature mini-LEDs or ProMotion. However, this is not surprising, as Apple has limited this display technology to Pro devices such as the iPad Pro and MacBook Pro. Also, it is not entirely certain that Apple will market this new machine as a MacBook Air or restore the MacBook name last used in 2019. Along with the new sizes, the upcoming MacBook Air is expected to feature a completely new design that eliminates the iconic wedge design in favor of the slim amorphous design like the MacBook Pro. It will reportedly be available in a variety of colors such as the iPad Air and iMac, with white bezels around the screen and possibly a white keyboard. Assuming the bezels are as thin as the MacBook Pro, the new MacBook will probably also have a slot for the front camera.
