What the rumors say
Earlier this week, a new report from Supply Chain Advisors (DSCC) revealed that Apple is working on a new 15-inch MacBook Air that will be unveiled sometime next year. According to DSCC analyst Ross Young, this new model will have a 15.2-inch screen. But Young is not the only one who believes that there will be a MacBook Air with a bigger screen. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently said on Twitter that mass production of the new 15-inch MacBook will begin in the fourth quarter of 2023, indicating that it will be released later in the year “if all goes according to plan”. At the same time, 9to5Mac heard from independent sources that Apple is working on at least two different versions of the MacBook Air for 2023. If the rumors are true, the new MacBook Air (or as it will be called) will be available in Options 13, 6 inches and 15.2 inches. It is worth noting that Apple is working on a redesigned MacBook Air with the M2 chip, which is expected to be introduced later this year. However, this year’s model is unlikely to have two size options in the series.
Does all this make sense?
As we have seen in recent years, Apple offers more choices to its consumers across its product line. We now have many iPhone and iPad sizes and the MacBook Pro is already available in two size options. So why not bring more options to the Air series? In the past, Apple has offered the MacBook Air with 11-inch and 13-inch screens, as the machine was designed with mobility in mind. However, MacBook Air users have done more with their laptops, especially now with the M1 chip. Personally, I replaced an Intel MacBook Pro with an M1 MacBook Air and I do not regret it. At this point, I do not feel I need everything the MacBook Pro has to offer, but I would appreciate having a bigger screen. I think there are a lot of people out there like me who use the MacBook Air as their daily camera and would buy a 15 inch model without a doubt. But what about you? Would you buy a 15-inch MacBook Air? Let us know in the poll and in the comments below. FTC: We use affiliate links that automatically generate revenue. More.
