The internal components have been upgraded, but the design-right down to the display-is nigh identical to those 2011 models. Though the MacBook Air is frequently touted as the best ultrabook you can buy, the new 2015 version of the MacBook Air has hardly changed at all-even after four years.

A 2010 rethink of the Air resulted in a new 11-inch variant, with all flash storage, and an even thinner aluminum unibody design. It was one of the first non-netbooks to ditch its CD drive and legacy ports in pursuit of this goal, something that seemed like a major sacrifice at the time. When Apple debuted the MacBook Air back in 2008, it was a bold move toward portability in a market where 17-inch laptop screens were still popular. We’ll continue updating this page with any relevant rumors and news.One example of this is the new 2015 Apple 13-inch MacBook Air (MSRP $999, $1,449 as tested). Could there also be a configuration packing the new M2 Pro chip? We can’t say for certain, but it would be an interesting prospect. We’re not too surprised to hear the MacBook Air 15-inch will sport the M3 chip, given how the Air could launch a year after the M2 made its debut. If so, it seems like a great alternative to the MacBook Air 2022. Even if this new Apple laptop doesn't launch in April as reports now suggest, it seems likely it will release at some point in the future. Rumors about the MacBook Air 15-inch keep coming. Storage could start at a trim 128GB but go up to 1TB. It’s possible this 15-inch laptop is the MacBook Air.Īs for other specs, one could expect RAM to start at 8GB and go up to 16GB or 32GB at a push.

Ming-Chi Kuo suggested something different in that Apple may be working on a 15-inch MacBook with M2 and M2 Pro variants. Mark Gurman has the MacBook Air 15-inch slated to come with the Apple M3 chip, an evolution of the M2 chip that'll likely offer more performance yet better power efficiency. We don't anticipate a premium mini-LED as that will likely remain a MacBook Pro feature. The 15-inch MacBook Air will likely feature a 500-nit Retina display like the 13-inch MacBook Air. But we would not expect an SD card slot or HDMI port like the Pros have. The 15-inch notebook is also expected to have a 1080p webcam, upgraded speakers and MagSafe charging. Instead of a tapered design, the new laptop should have flat edges like the new 13-inch Air and a function key row. Rumors say the 15-inch MacBook Air will be a wider version of the MacBook Air 2022.
