Apple is reportedly developing a 15.5-inch MacBook Air that is said to launch by April 2023.
The report comes from tech analyst Ross Young and Display Supply Chain Consultants who stated in a tweet to his Super Followers that the panels designed for the rumored 15.5-inch MacBook Air are now in production starting this month.
Rumors of a larger 15-inch MacBook Air have been around since 2022 and up to this point, not much is known apart from its display size.
Young also said that the display size is to measure 15.5 inches rather than 15.2 inches.
He’s also had a strong track record when it comes to display-specific supply predictions such as ProMotion on the iPhone 13 and MacBook Pro, the latest 13.6-inch MacBook Air in 2022, and the 8.3-inch iPad Mini.
If it does release, it is said to feature a similar design as the regular 13.6-inch MacBook Air that was released in 2022 with flat edges, a Force Touch Trackpad, and a MagSafe charging port among other things.
As for the processor, not much is known but it’s most likely that Apple will stick with the M2 chip inside but could also reveal one with an M2 Pro processor like in the base MacBook Pro models or even a next-generation 3 nm-based M3 chip.
As for price, the 2022 13.6-inch MacBook Air already starts at PHP 69,990 or USD 1,119 for the base 8GB+256GB model. With that considered, a 15.5-inch MacBook Air could very likely see a higher starting price.
Just do note that these are all still rumors and that nothing has been confirmed until Apple announces it themselves.
