Apple has been rumored to introduce an all-new variant of MacBook Air with a bigger display since last year. And it now appears that the product will enter the market and could be the highlight of Apple’s Mac announcements for 2023.
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, a well-known Apple source, dedicated the latest Power On newsletter to list what upgrades and new offerings Apple fans can expect this year. The things to expect for the Mac line are not that many, but the journalist said the unveiling of the 15-inch MacBook Air could be the “major saving grace” for Apple’s Mac announcements throughout the year.
There was no new information provided in the newsletter, but Gurman and other established sources have been reporting on the existence of the 15-inch MacBook Air throughout 2022. What the most recent report suggests is that the all-new laptop is likely one of the products to be released sometime this year.
However, it appears that Apple prioritized the larger MacBook Air more than bringing back a 12-inch entry-level MacBook. Gurman added that the latter is not included in Apple’s products roadmap for the near future. So it remains to be seen if the company will revisit its plans for the 12-inch laptop in the coming years.
The 15-inch MacBook Air was first mentioned in a Display Supply Chain Consultants report last March, which also first suggested a possible 2023 launch. Bloomberg and analyst Ming-Chi Kuo later on mentioned the same product in their respective reports published last June, making the device’s launch this year more likely to happen.
In Kuo’s report, the analyst said the larger MacBook Air could enter mass production in the middle of the first half of 2023, which could mean sometime between March and April. He added that a release date could then be set sometime in the second quarter of the year.
That provided the possibility for the 15-inch MacBook Air to be part of Apple’s spring launch. Apple typically holds an event in March or April to announce new Macs and iPads to be released through the first half of the year.
