The notch on your computer, of course. It's there, even if you like to pretend it isn't.

because back will have serial numbers and you could figure out the source of leak from that?
its better safe than sorry for leakers
Think it might be because the Air is a lower-cost product while 3nm currently is expensive and hard. Could make sense to launch the Pro and Max before since you can just ask the target audience for $300+ more and be done with it.
Although very surprising that large chips are ready to go this early, if recent rumors are correct.
I’m really really curious to know whether the M3 shares the basic design of the A17 and is built using the N3B process, or is already using the new N3E node with an updated architecture.
Honestly I wasn’t expecting the M3 to launch this year, but I guess I’ll have to wait much less to satisfy my curiosity. 5 days remaining!

Conveniently, the picture only shows the front of the box and not the back which would reveal the specifications of the device. 🤷♂️
... and smurf blue. I would buy in a heartbeat.
why would anyone assume it has heat issues? aint released yet, zero leaks. chill out and relax.
M3 iPad Pro rumors were flying around, if its goon enough for a iPad, its good enough for a MBA. just gonna take time given the 3nm supply is expected to be limited at launch (ie. not enough capacity at TSMC just yet)
I can’t help but think there’s another reason for this update. Apple typically releases a product so quickly when there’s an issue with the current gen being compatible with an upcoming direction the company is moving in. I’m thinking AAA games will be announced as coming to Mac soon given the GPU improvements in the A17 that the M3 will be based off.
I actually like the notch. It increases menu space.
it'd increase it even more if these new dimensions were kept, without any notch.
while we're at it, i'm quite surprised that they didn't call it Top Notch, but i guess they've learned from that mistake with the Dynamic Island
Because if they did show the back, Apple would've had at least a minimum of 12 snipers pointed at them
No, that's their product roadmap.
No it doesn’t it takes up room out of the wallpaper, I understand it’s part of the extra menu bar but we don’t need that huge notch the camera isn’t even that good
What if this isn’t the Pro/Max MacBook? When Gurman said the 14” and 13” Pro are in short supply, what if the Base M3 MacBook Pro gets redesigned to be more like the Pro/Max MacBooks? Maybe it’s a way to get the 14” Pro, but not as ridiculously expensive as the Pro/Max versions?
haven't you seen that new wallpaper!?
I think they just want to have a yearly October update schedule for the M chip.
Unless you live in Australia or New Zealand, where Summer is coming.
atp they might just get rid of it. People will be fine with having just the 13 inch M1 Air, M2 Air and M3 Pro/Max.
If Apple don’t release M3 across the entire lineup next week they have had it as a company. How on earth are we expected to continue with our workflows on M2??
It’s so laggy, even in menus. Forget DaVinci Resolve. The websites are so laggy and dropped frames in YouTube are the last straw.
I’m going back to my Apple Newton. At least it scrolls as smooth as butter, and jelly just wipes off it. No Jelly Scrolling here
