M3 MacBook Air
Last fall, Apple unveiled a new lineup of M3 MacBook Pro models during its Scary Fast event – an unusual October evening session that also saw the refresh of the 24-inch iMac with M3 silicon and the elimination of the oddball 13-inch MacBook Pro form factor in favor of a more affordable 14-inch MacBook Pro featuring the base M3 chip.
That release brought a nice unity to the MacBook Pro family, but the MacBook Air was nowhere to be seen. Considering that Apple had just released the 15-inch M2 MacBook Air only four months earlier, the company probably felt it was too soon to bring the M3 chip to that product lineup since it would have been awkward to update the 15-inch model so soon or leave it behind the 13-inch models.
Instead, rumor has it that we’ll see the entire MacBook Air lineup get M3 silicon in March. As with the 24-inch iMac, we probably won’t see any other significant changes, especially since Apple already did a big design refresh with the M2 series in mid-2022.
