The forthcoming MacBook Air will employ a new ‘M2′ chip, according to a leak. While the processor’s performance hasn’t been revealed, it’s believed to be slower than the M1 Pro and M1 Max CPUs found in the new MacBook Pros.
After all, the MacBook Air isn’t for professionals and prioritizes value. But that doesn’t imply the notebook will be slow, as the present MacBook Air with its M1 CPU has already demonstrated.
Dylandkt also alleged in a series of tweets that the next MacBook Air will not have any cooling fans. This implies that ‘M2′ silicon is very efficient, requiring less power, and hence generating less heat.
In addition, the leaker stated that the notebook will lose its characteristic wedge shape for a squarish appearance similar to the current 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. A thinner and lighter Air is coming.
The leaks couldn’t confirm if Apple will employ a notch to house the 1080p camera. MacBook Air 2022 will not have ProMotion variable refresh rate technology.
Dylandkt claims the 2022 MacBook Air will have USB C connectors, a 30W power adaptor, full-sized function keys, and support for numerous external displays.
Finally, the laptop’s beginning price is projected to rise. Color selections will be identical to the iMac 24. The laptop’s bezels and keyboard will turn off-white.
The next MacBook Air with M2 chip is slated to launch in mid-2022.
