HIGHLIGHTS * Apple is likely planning to launch several new products at the WWDC event. * The WWDC event 2023 will begin on June 5th and will end on June 9th. * The company might unveil a new 15-inch MacBook Air with an M2-like chip at the event. Tech giant Apple is planning to unveil a slew of products, such as iOS 17, and a mixed-reality headset, at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), which will take place from June 5th to June 9th, 2023. However, a new Bloomberg report indicates that the upcoming event might also see the launch of a 15-inch MacBook Air with an M2-like chip. Developer logs show that Apple has started to test the new laptops with third-party apps from the App Store to make sure they work well together. With less than two months two go until WWDC, the rumors keep pouring in. After hearing about iOS 17 last week, we now have some details on the hardware Apple plans to bring to the big show, and the anticipated AR headset might have some supporting acts. According to Mark Gurman's latest Power On newsletter, Apple has several new MacBooks in the pipeline, "at least some" of which will be announced during the June 5 WWDC keynote. Gurman doesn't share much in the way of specifics, other than to state the somewhat obvious point that the new June laptops "probably won't boast major new M3 chips. Instead, they'll run something in line with the current M2 processors." That likely means the 15-inch MacBook Air, which has been rumored for months and is reportedly already in production, is on the way. It will be Apple's first 15-inch laptop since 2019, when the 15-inch MacBook Pro was discontinued and replaced with the 16-inch model. The new Air will reportedly have an M2 processor, possibly with an M2 Pro option, with a similar design and specs to the 13-inch model. However, Gurman's report indicates that more than one M2-based MacBook will be released at WWDC, which could mean Apple is planning to refresh the current M2 MacBook Air or 13-inch MacBook Pro as well. 15-inch MacBook Air launch expected at WWDC The test logs show that Apple is getting ready to release a laptop with a similar processor to current models but a bigger, higher-resolution screen. This model is probably the 15-inch MacBook Air that Apple planned to release this year. Like the current M2, the chip in the upcoming laptop has eight main working cores and ten graphics cores. It has the same 8 gigabytes of memory as the current MacBook Air. The CPU still has four cores for high speed and four cores for low power use. The version of the Mac operating system that is on the Macs being tested is macOS 14, the report said. Aside from the bigger MacBook Air, Apple is also working on bringing the 13-inch Air model, the 24-inch iMac, and the basic 13-inch MacBook Pro. However, it is unsure whether the company will unveil any of them during the WWDC event or not. Apple WWDC Event: What to expect Apple is expected to reveal several new products and updates during the upcoming WWDC 2023 event. These include the mixed-reality headset, xrOS operating system and software development kit, iPadOS 17, macOS 14, a significant watchOS 10 update, and new MacBooks. According to reports, the upcoming headset will feature Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) capabilities, and users will be able to switch between modes using a digital crown-like control knob. It is expected to come equipped with an external battery pack that must be worn by the user on their waist. Faqs on Apple MacBook Air 1) 15-Inch MacBook Air With M2-Like Chip Spotted in Developer Logs ? Ans) An unreleased 15-inch MacBook Air with a processor "on par" with the M2 chip has been spotted in App Store developer logs, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The long-rumored laptop will likely be released by WWDC in June. The report indicates that the chip in the new MacBook Air configuration spotted in the logs has an 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU, just like the M2 chip, along with 8GB of RAM. The laptop has the model identifier "Mac 15,3" and is listed as running macOS 14, which is expected to be announced at WWDC alongside iOS 17 and other updates. The new Air is also listed with a display resolution equal to that of the 14-inch MacBook Pro. There have been conflicting reports about which chip the 15-inch MacBook Air will use, but the developer logs and Gurman saying the M3 chip is "coming later" suggest that the initial 15-inch model will be powered by the M2 chip, like the 13-inch model. A larger MacBook Air was first rumored in 2021, with production of 15-inch display panels reportedly ramping up in recent months. It's unclear exactly when the laptop would be released, but it will likely be announced by WWDC, which begins June 5. Apple announced the 13-inch MacBook Air with the M2 chip at WWDC last year. Apple is also working on an updated 13-inch MacBook Air, according to Gurman. 2) What does the lineup of Mac Models include for WWDC 2023? Ans) The lineup includes a 15-inch MacBook Air, refreshes of 13-inch MacBook Air and 24-inch iMac, and an entry-level 13-inch MacBook Pro. Alongside, the company is also readying its first Mac Pro with in-house chips and updated high-end MacBook Pro models. 3) New MacBook Air 15-inch Might Feature This Chipset: Details? Ans) Apple is likely to launch its new 15-inch MacBook Air at WWDC 2023. Ahead of the launch, some key details about the laptop have leaked. Gurman, in its new Power On newsletter (via), has revealed that an unreleased 15-inch MacBook Air has been spotted in the App Store developer logs. The report reveals that the laptop features an SoC, which is “on par” with the M2 chip found in the 13-inch model. It has an 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU, just like the M2 chip. The laptop also packs 8GB of RAM under the hood. As per the logs, the 15-inch model has the identifier “Mac 15,3.” It is running macOS 14, which will be unveiled at WWDC 2023. In addition to the above details, the logs also revealed that the 15-inch variant has the same display resolution as the 14-inch MacBook Pro. There have been reports in the past suggesting the 15-inch Air model features Apple’s upcoming M3 chip. However, it looks like the bigger Air will get the same M2 series chip found in the 13.6-inch variant. As per the report, the 15-inch Air will be announced at WWDC, which is slated to kick off on June 5. Apple announced 13.6-inch variant of the MacBook Air at WWDC 2022. The 15-inch model is likely to have the same design elements as the 13.6-inch variant, which received a refresh last year. It will feature a flatter frame made of metal. There will be a notch display at the top. The screen is likely to be 15.6-inch in size and feature the standard IPS LCD panel. Apple is also likely to offer only two USB Type-C ports and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The bigger Air is unlikely to get an SD card port or more than two USB Type-C Thunderbolt ports, which only the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models feature. Alongside the 15-inch model, Apple is also reportedly working on an updated version of the 13-inch Air. At WWDC 2023, Apple is also likely to launch a new Mac Pro with a powerful version of the M2 chip called the M2 Ultra and an updated iMac, which has not been refreshed since 2021.
