Apple Expected to Announce New MacBook Air 'Tomorrow'

[MacRumors]

Apple CEO Tim Cook yesterday teased that there was "something in the air" this week, and it turns out that could be "things" plural. Following today's announcement of a new iPad Air with an M3 chip, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman now says that Apple plans to announce the long-rumored MacBook Air with the M4 chip tomorrow.

"Expect the M4 MacBook Air tomorrow as part of the new product wave," he said, in a post on X.

Gurman initially said the new MacBook Air would be announced "earlier" than the iPhone 16e and new iPad Air, but that information was evidently wrong.

As was the case with the new iPad Air, and the iPhone 16e last month, the new MacBook Air should be announced in a press release on the Apple Newsroom website.

Beyond the M4 chip, the new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models are expected to have Thunderbolt 4 ports, a Center Stage camera, longer battery life, and a few other minor upgrades. No design changes are expected.

Typical Mark. Throw it all at the wall and hope something sticks.

even a broken clock is right twice a day. and just as predictable people will complain its a boring spec update. and they would be right. cant always be exciting.

 

[andiwm2003]

That would be nice. I hope they become available at the same time so I could buy a MBA and a iPad air in the apple store at the same time. That helps a lot as buying them online is quite a bit more expensive.

So then it's not coming tomorrow. Thanks, Mark!

i know this a rumors site but should we trust this at this point? been wrong about so many things lately.

 

[cardfan]

I mean it's just the same thing with a not so new m4 chip.

Did you see what Tom did there with the iPad, he thought he could trick us but he’s wrong, I know this because other products have Air their title!

 

[WilliApple]

Now why couldn't all 4 of these products be an apple event with the headliner being the iPhone 16e?

Does Apple only do Apple Events for iPhones and WWDC now?

 

[Astuces iOS]

Ok cool I want to see how much the MacBook Pro is better !

 

[Kottu]

I just hope that they will add same display like in the Pro. Then I would go for one. Or, I'll just keep my M1 Pro 14" for a Looong time.

Lazy people don’t want to do an event… Did they made an event with iPad mini A17, Mac mini, iMac and MacBook Pro? No…

Since they didn’t make any video today then it’s time saved for them lol.

just a chip upgrade, no one would notice so just get an older one, I miss the days updates were exciting

 

[MRSugarD]

Should MR really pay so much attention to him and his claims/guesses?

... but obviously things can still theoretically change.

 

[turbineseaplane]

Expect to be disappointed

 

[StuBeck]

In future news when a new MBA M4 is announced, reports about how great all the reports were will be made.

Only reason I'm even mildly interested is for the preowned sales it creates when folks rush to "upgrade"

(there are always folks paying no attention who just "do this")

 

[Howard2k]

this time!!

 

[dannyh5319]

Mark is almost always right with his claims not sure when he’s been wrong honestly.To those who like the air, get hyped for tomorrow.

 

[MayaUser]

where does Tim said its plural? you thought its about macbook air, it wasnt, it was the ipad air

 

[andiwm2003]

Would be too funny if tomorrow the new Air tags get released instead.

 

[ShivneelSingh]

M4 13” MacBook Air with Nano-Textured Display!! Please make it happen.

Hey, look on the bright side - maybe the notch gets replaced with a dynamic island!
