MacBook Air

Apple’s seasonal Back to School deals promotion is expected to start later this week, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

The Apple Store Back to School deal usually includes a bundling of a $50-$150 gift card with the purchase of an eligible Mac, iPad, or other Apple device.

Apple is rumored to have several new Macs up its sleeve for WWDC 2023 next week. One of those new Macs is expected to be the 15-inch MacBook Air, the biggest MacBook Air that Apple has ever released. Head below as we round up everything we know about the 15-inch MacBook Air so far…

Every once and a while, a new product comes around, and I think, “How has this not been thought about before?” Since Apple introduced MagSafe in the iPhone 12 lineup, companies have been attempting to leverage that hardware to create unique and versatile accessories. We have seen everything from MagSafe batteries to chargers, car mounts, wallets, and so much more. But Rolling Square, with its new Edge Pro product, took modularity, function, and design to the next level.

Apple’s long-awaited 15-inch MacBook Air is reportedly set for a debut at WWDC next month. Ahead of that release, I’ve been pondering how this big-screen MacBook Air might fit in Apple’s current Mac lineup, and I realized there’s one potential (if not likely) limitation that could be a dealbreaker for many buyers…

The much-anticipated 15-inch MacBook Air is reportedly set for an official announcement at WWDC next month. Ahead of that, a new report from DigiTimes highlights that Apple suppliers are in full swing preparing for the launch and have already stockpiled the new machine.

While both Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and display analyst Ross Young originally expected Apple to announce the upcoming 15-inch MacBook Air at a spring event, that’s looking less and less likely now that we’re into May – and WWDC is approaching.

Gurman now expects the new machine to be launched at WWDC, and it would certainly make for a solid keynote headline …

While the MacBook Pro‘s now-vintage Touch Bar may have been a misstep, it still seems likely that Apple’s long-term vision is to replace physical keyboards with touchscreen ones – and Carnegie Mellon University’s flat panel haptics could be a better bet than the approaches Apple has patented to date.

Apple’s first step in this lengthy journey was of course the iPhone, replacing the physical keyboards which were the norm on smartphones of the time with a screen-based virtual one …

One of the biggest complaints I hear from Apple users when it comes to creating a desk setup is that it’s tough to find an affordable monitor made for Macs. Most affordable monitors lack color accuracy and end up having a different hue or tint when compared to the displays on MacBooks. Then when you want to get a nice, color-corrected display, you need to spend $1000+. But there is finally an option that is much more affordable and gives you everything these more expensive displays give you. The new 32-inch BenQ 4k Ergo Arm is worth considering!

When the online Apple Store is down, that usually means the company is adding new products – but this time it’s likely just a technical glitch.

The store has twice been replaced today with the message the company displays as it preps new products for sale …

Rumors surrounding the long-awaited 15-inch MacBook Air are ramping up as the launch nears. Today, reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reports that the machine is likely to feature the M2 chip inside with two different configuration options.

Apple is ramping up testing of the highly-anticipated next-gen 15-inch MacBook Air. A new report today says that the 15-inch MacBook Air will feature a screen resolution that’s the same as the 14-inch MacBook Air and Apple Silicon performance that is “on par with M2 Macs.”

Shifting MacBook production outside of China for the first time is one of Apple’s key strategic goals for its supply chain, with Vietnam reported to be first in line. A new report today indicates that companies with facilities in Thailand are also preparing for MacBook assembly.

Multiple Apple suppliers are said to be involved in discussions with the company, over both production of components and modules for the machines, as well as final assembly …

We’ve been hearing a lot of rumors about a new 15-inch MacBook Air, and even 9to5Mac has shared exclusive details about this model. Now DSCC analyst Ross Young said that Apple’s suppliers are ramping up production of the display panels for the new MacBook, which suggests that the launch could happen soon.

The M2 MacBook Air has been one of my favorite recent releases from Apple. The combination of design, power, battery life, and portability puts this computer at the top of its product category. Since it is the MacBook AIR, most people consider this laptop to be an on-the-go type of computer and they disregard just how much power is in the M2 chip, even at the baseline level.

Samsung OLED production is likely to see dramatically increased demand as Apple makes the shift to OLED iPads and MacBooks – and has won government support for a $3B investment in its manufacturing capacity for the panels.

We’re expecting the next product to make the shift from LCD and mini-LED to be an iPad Pro, in the first half of next year …
