After rumors that Apple is developing a larger screen MacBook Air, expected to be 15 inches in size, comparable to the MacBook Pro. MacRumors has compiled all the information about the 15-inch MacBook Air so far, let’s take a look.
Size
The 2022 MacBook Air measures 13.6 inches, so the 15-inch version will be much larger. Sized between the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, it’s the largest MacBook Air version to date. There are rumors that the size of the MacBook Air is 15.2 inches.
The 15.2-inch MacBook Air will have a slightly smaller screen than the previous 15.4-inch MacBook Pro. However, the 2022 MacBook Air has narrower bezels, so the 15.2-inch MacBook Air will likely be significantly smaller than the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro. Apple hasn’t offered two sizes of the MacBook Air since the 11-inch MacBook Air was discontinued in 2016.
Design
The 15-inch MacBook Air is expected to use the same general design as the 2022 13-inch MacBook Air, which in turn takes design cues from the MacBook Pro, with a large Force Touch trackpad, a keyboard with function keys, and no fans. Like the 2022 MacBook Air, it’s expected to include a MagSafe charging port, a 1080p camera, and an upgraded speaker system.
Show
The 15-inch MacBook Air is not expected to include mini-LED or ProMotion display technologies, which are limited to MacBook Pro models.
M2 and M2 Pro chips
Tianfeng International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has said that Apple is developing a 15-inch laptop that will be launched in 2023. He didn’t mention whether the Mac would be a MacBook Air.
Ming-Chi Kuo believes that the 15-inch MacBook will offer M2 and M2 Pro chip options. The M2 chip used in the 2022 MacBook Air has an 8-core CPU and up to a 10-core GPU.
Name
Ming-Chi Kuo has said that the 15-inch device Apple is developing may not be in the MacBook Air lineup, but there are other rumors that it is a MacBook Air, so this one cannot be confirmed.
Release Date
A larger-screen 15-inch MacBook could be released as early as spring 2023, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. Ming-Chi Kuo has said that the 15-inch device will launch in the second quarter of 2023 or later, and display analyst Ross Young also believes it will launch in 2023.
