It has been talked about for a long time that Apple will introduce the MacBook Air model with a 15-inch screen in April. Various claims have been made about the processor and other features of the new laptop for a long time. Among these claims, we have compiled 5 features that are expected to be offered in the new MacBook Air for you.
Expected features for MacBook Air
bigger screen
The new MacBook Air is expected to feature a larger 15.5-inch display, the largest ever for a laptop. The current MacBook Air has a 13.6-inch display. While a new 13-inch MacBook Air with an OLED display is said to launch in 2024, it seems likely that the 15-inch model will feature a traditional LCD display.
M2 processor
Like the 13-inch MacBook Air, the 15-inch model is expected to be offered with the M2 processor. Apple states that the M2 chip has up to 18 percent faster CPU, up to 35 percent faster GPU and up to 40 percent faster Neural Engine compared to the M1 chip. There is also a small possibility that the new computer will come with the M3 processor, which goes through the 3 nm production process.
Longer battery life
The new MacBook Air with a 15-inch display will have a larger battery and therefore a longer battery life thanks to its larger chassis. Apple claims that the 13-inch MacBook Air with the M2 chip lasts up to 18 hours on a single charge, while on the 15-inch model, this could approach the 20-hour limit.
Wi-Fi 6E
The 13-inch MacBook Air with the M2 processor is limited to Wi-Fi 6, while the 15-inch MacBook Air is likely to switch to Wi-Fi 6E. Apple has already offered the Mac mini with the M2 processor and Wi-Fi 6E. Wi-Fi 6; While operating in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, Wi-Fi 6E also operates in the 6 GHz band, providing higher wireless speed, lower latency and less signal interference.
Bluetooth 5.3
Apple has added Bluetooth 5.3 to many of its latest devices. It seems quite likely that the 15-inch MacBook Air will also receive this support. Bluetooth 5.3 has benefits such as improved reliability and power efficiency. Bluetooth 5.3 could also pave the way for the new MacBook Air to support LE Audio for better sound quality, longer battery life and more.
