Although there is still nothing confirmed by Cupertino, the truth is that we have had clues on the table for a long time. Just by seeing the address of the company with its products we could intuit that the MacBook Air would disappear at some point. And it seems that the replacement for this computer would already be in Apple's oven.
If we take a look at the names that have been taking Apple's product lines, we would know that they increasingly simplify these and leave surnames. Right now we have in the portfolio from the company: the MacBook line, an entry model with 12 inches and a MacBook Pro line with different sizes and configurations. Also, the MacBook Air was currently one of the few Apple computers to drop below the 1.000 euro barrier. What's more, we could say that it is the introductory model to the company's notebook range. Nevertheless, when it would be 10 years since its launch, a new model would come to replace it.
As they contribute from the middle DigiTimes, Apple would be thinking of providing a new entry-level laptop. It would be a 13-inch MacBook that it would be updated to what the most modern models currently have: a better resolution screen; USB-C ports and new keyboard.
And it is that we remember that the MacBook Air lacks all this; has been with the same design for years and only its technical specifications have been updated. Likewise, with the withdrawal of this product we would also lose the latest model with its illuminated apple.
In the leak, few details are given about this new model and We do not know if it would be a team that was also around 1.000 euros or would exceed them and catch up with its 12-inch brother. Be that as it may, the entire new range of Apple laptops owe their design to this MacBook Air, a product in which other brands set themselves to establish that new sector called ultrabook and that, despite the few design updates it has undergone — if not any — it has stood the test of time well and continues to be one of the best-selling teams today.
