A report last month claimed that Intel's continued delays of its Broadwell chip may cause Apple to push back the release of its 12-inch MacBook until late this 2014 or early 2015. The 12-inch MacBook is said to include a Retina display and may either be a successor to the MacBook Air or join Apple's current 11-inch and 13-inch models.
A previous report in June stated that Apple would begin production of a 12-inch MacBook Air in the third quarter of this year, with Quanta Computer in charge of assembly. The 12-inch MacBook Air was also described as appearing similar to the 11-inch and 13-inch models, but featuring a Retina display and internal changes to various components.
Other reports throughout the year have also shared information on a 12-inch MacBook Air, with NPD DisplaySearch and KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also stating that the new notebook would feature a Retina display. A user on a Chinese forum who previously shared accurate information noted that the 12-inch MacBook Air would incorporate a new cooling system and button-less trackpad design.
If Apple is indeed looking to launch a new MacBook late this year or early next year, the company may unveil the notebook at an October event following the introduction of the iPhone 6 in September.
Is it going to have protruding iSight camera?
What's thinner than Air?
Then name it that.
Jony ive's hairline?
I wish people would stop complaining about Apple going thin. I for one appreciate the work that goes into devices that are easier to use because of their lightness and thinness. I went from a 2008 MacBook Air to a 2013 Macbook Pro Retina and the Macbook Pro is so much heavier, its almost a chore to pickup compared to the MBA. Ok you pay a price for the power of the rMBP, but my next laptop will be an Air I think
Glad you said this. People think the MacBook Pro is 'approaching the thinness of an air' fail to grasp that if you can fit Pro specs in a laptop that thin, the Consumer laptop can be made even thinner, too.
Jony ive's hairline?
Yes, I can see it: Introducing the new Macbook Hair!
And it doesn't help that the specs of all them could blend.
I think the priority should be a brand new retina MacBook Air with a new thinner design.
Retina Air 12''
Retina Pro 13''
Retina Air 14''
Retina Pro 15''
12 rMBA
13 and 15 rMBP.
