Apple is looking to make waves in the laptop market once again, with a new MacBook Air rumored to be on the horizon for 2024. With expected improvements such as the M3 chip, which has been a major player in recent MacBook Pro models and the iMac 24-inch, fans are eagerly awaiting the launch of this new and improved version.

According to insider reports, a new and improved MacBook Air is expected to debut in 2024 with the M3 chip as its main upgrade. Alongside this exciting bit of news, questions have arisen about whether there will be any other major changes, as well as speculation about the release timeframe, pricing, and other potential features of the new MacBook Air.

Reports suggest that the new MacBook Air is likely to be released in early-to-mid 2024. This will follow in the footsteps of the new MacBook Pro models that arrived late in 2023. Given Apple’s typical release timeline, a 2024 launch for the M3-powered laptops makes perfect sense.

Industry experts have speculated that the MacBook Air with the M3 chip was nearly ready to go in October 2023 and could be set for a release in 2024, possibly around spring to summer, or more likely in June, coinciding with Apple’s WWDC 2024 event.

Despite the excitement surrounding the new MacBook Air, rumors suggest that there may not be any major changes beyond the M3 chip upgrade. While it is still unclear what the pricing will be, it is possible that Apple may not offer a more affordable MacBook Air, especially in light of previous price hikes.

The most notable upgrade to the MacBook Air is the inclusion of the M3 chip, which is expected to bring a significant performance boost to the laptop. However, an OLED screen has been ruled out for the MacBook Air 2024, based on the latest reports. It also seems unlikely that there will be any significant changes to the design of the new MacBook Air models.

While the details about the upcoming MacBook Air remain scarce, we can still hold out hope for some key improvements. For instance, customers would no doubt welcome a more affordable price point and more diverse color options for the MacBook Air. However, it remains to be seen whether Apple will deliver on these wish-list items for the 2024 MacBook Air.
