Apple to Announce MacBook Air with M4 Chip Next Week

Last month, Apple unveiled the iPhone 16e, which became the company’s most affordable smartphone in the current generation. Now, according to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, the presentation of the MacBook Air with Apple’s proprietary M4 processor is approaching. According to him, the vendor will announce updated laptops next week.

«”I expect the MacBook Air with the M4 chip to be unveiled next week. Stocks have been significantly reduced and Apple is preparing a Mac-related announcement in the next few days,” Gurman said in a statement.

Apple already launched the MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini with M4 chips last October. Geekbench 6 benchmark results show that the chip is 25% faster than the M3 chip in terms of multi-core performance. That same month, Apple increased the minimum RAM in all MacBook Air versions from 8GB to 16GB. The maximum RAM in MacBook Air notebooks is expected to increase to 32GB.

It is also expected that the new MacBook Air will differ from the current generation models in better battery life. Developers can equip the laptops with an updated 12-megapixel camera with support for the Center Stage function, which automatically keeps the user in the center of the frame when moving. In addition, the camera will receive support for the Desk View function, which shows the user himself, as well as a top view of his desk.

The new MacBook Air will likely feature three Thunderbolt 4 ports, up from two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the current generation. Support for up to two external monitors is also expected. As for the MacBook Air’s appearance, don’t expect any significant design changes.
