Apple’s MacBook Air was a product with no recent purpose, being almost as thin as the MacBook Pro and still plagued by the same keyboard problems as its more powerful brother.
Apple has solved at least one of these problems, according to a reliable tipster MacRumors, who told them that Apple will announce a new MacBook Air as early as next week. It has previously been revealed by the even more reliable leaker Ming-Chi Kuo that the new MacBook Air will feature scissor keys, eventually solving the jungle of the butterfly keyboard.
It is rumored that Apple will release an ARM-powered laptop and Air would be the perfect test vehicle for such a processor switch, since it would allow for unprecedented thinness, the laptop’s main selling point, and probably another useful mobility as well. long battery life and integrated LTE support.
If this rumor is accurate, we should know quite soon, so keep an eye on the possible announcement in the coming days.
