![]() June 5 isn’t too far off so we should hear official word about the new MacBooks soon. After all, IDC reported recently that Apple laptop sales fell 40% from Q1 2022 to Q1 2023, so there's certainly less demand for upgrades right now.Īgain, take Gurman’s claims with the proverbial grain of salt. ![]() Given how some manufacturers like Dell seem content with simply releasing refreshed laptops this year, it’s not surprising Apple is following a similar course. ![]() However, nothing is set in stone and we might get unexpected news, such as the official announcement of the M3 chip - but that isn’t expected until next year. New MacBooks: OutlookĪside from the 15-inch MacBook Air, WWDC 2023’s potential MacBook announcements don’t seem all that exciting, based on Gurman’s report. Rumors of both of these new machines have been circulating for over six months. These upgrades might also come to the aforementioned 13-inch MacBook Pro, but again, that’s speculation. The new MacBook Air and a new 13-inch MacBook Pro have both been rumored as being in the cards for WWDC 2022. Using two 128GB NAND chips instead of a single 256GB chip could fix this issue. A faster 256GB for the entry-level model would also be appreciated, especially since the current model has slower speeds than the MacBook Air M1. This is speculation on our part but this model might feature Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. If this model is also sporting an M2 chip like its current iteration, don’t expect much in the way of meaningful updates. The MacBook Air is apparently receiving an update. The MacBook Pro 14-inch starts at $1,999 and the MacBook Pro 13-inch costs $1,299, so at the very least it would be nice if Apple offered MagSafe charging, a sharper webcam and slimmer bezels on the 13-inch model. Will the new MacBook Pro 13-inch have an M2 Pro chip? Will it retain the same design as its predecessor, Touch Bar and all? If it receives a redesign to fit the current Pro line, what would make it different from the latest MacBook Air? We’re not sure what to make of this laptop or how it will fit into the larger MacBook Pro lineup. Gurman claims the new MacBooks will also feature this chip, which makes us wonder how this 13-inch model will be different from what’s currently available. The MacBook Pro 13-inch M2 that launched last year packed the then-new Apple M2 Pro chip. Apple is testing an unreleased chip with a 12-core CPU, 18-core GPU, and 36GB of memory, according to an App Store developer log obtained by Bloomberg s Mark Gurman. We wish he had because we have several questions. Gurman said a new 13-inch MacBook Pro is in the works but didn’t delve into specifics.
