Mass production of MacBook Air 2022 with new design and upgraded chipset from next year

Apple has no interest in changing the design of its products in each generation and prefers to change the design of its devices every few years. MacBooks are no exception, and it’s been a few years since the MacBook Air came into the market with that old design, and Apple fans are well aware that they have to wait a long time to experience a new design. The wait for the MacBook Air 2022 is almost over, as Apple is expected to unveil the MacBook next year with a new design. According to analysts, the Cupertinos will begin mass production of the device in the third quarter of next year.

Possible time of introduction of Apple MacBook Air 2022

According to a note from analyst Ming Chi Koo called Apple products by the media MacRumors Released, the next-generation MacBook Air will be equipped with a Mini LED display, and Apple plans to begin mass production of this device in the third quarter of 2022. In this case, fans of Apple notebooks can meet the replacement of the M1 Macbook Air in the last quarter of next year. Also, if this information is accurate, we can expect that Apple will hold an event in October or November next year to introduce its new MacBooks, just like this year.

The reason why Apple will mass-produce the MacBook Air 2022 with such a delay is the most important reason for this could be the significant changes in the generation of this device. Including the new design of this MacBook, which according to previous reports will be equipped with a lighter body, and also Apple may have considered a charging port MagSafe along with USB 4 ports for this device. Like the MacBook Pro M1X that will be introduced in the next few weeks, the next-generation MacBook Air will include an upgrade to the Mini LED display.

M2, the next generation MacBook Air chipset with a new architecture

The latest prediction made about the next generation MacBook Air is the upgrade of the device’s processor chipset. Apple will probably use the M2 chip in the new model, which is a direct replacement for the M1 chip. Although in terms of configuration, the M2, like the M1, is equipped with eight processing cores consisting of 4 powerful cores and 4 low-power cores, and in this respect it is lower than the M1X chip with ten processing cores, but thanks to the new architecture. , The M2 chipset will have better energy consumption, but no information is currently available on how well this chipset is performing.

In this case, Apple may decide to increase the operating frequency of the processor cores to increase the speed of the M2 chipset. What Apple will do based on the new architecture. But the problem is that TSMC may not deliver Apple’s 3-nanometer chips on time, in which case the company may have to use the previous generation architecture and thus not be able to increase the performance of the new chipset. However, if the chip crisis situation improves, we can hope to use the new chip architecture in Apple’s M2 chipset.
