From PC Mag: Apple is expanding the MacBook Air line with a 15-inch model that launches next week starting at $1,299. It’s also prepping a Mac Pro that’ll run an Apple-designed Arm chip for the first time.
The new MacBook Air, announced today at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), is significantly larger than the 13.6-inch and 13.3-inch models; this newest version sports a 15.3-inch Liquid Retina display, which boasts 500 nits of brightness.
“The new MacBook Air measures only 11.5mm thin, making it the world’s thinnest 15-inch laptop,” the company says. Another improvement is a six-speaker audio system compared to the the four-speaker system in the 13.6-inch model.
The company argues that the new MacBook Air bests rival products that feature Intel silicon. However, the new MacBook still uses the M2 chip, which Apple introduced at last year’s WWDC and is also in the 13.6-inch MacBook Air.
