We recently heard that Apple is working on a new ultra thin 15 inch laptop, which could either be a new design for the MacBook Pro or a new 15 inch MacBook Air, and now more details have emerged on the mystery 15 inch device.
The news comes from Digitimes who are reporting that the device could go on sale next March, and components for the device are now being made and shipped to manufacturers.
Estimated by the product planning, mass shipments of the notebook device will start in March and could be cataloged in either the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro line. Apple currently has three screen sizes for the MacBook Pro – 13.3-inch, 15.6-inch and 17-inch.
Potential Features and Specifications
The potential features of this new 15-inch ultra-thin laptop are generating a lot of buzz. If it is indeed a new MacBook Air, we can expect it to be incredibly lightweight and portable, making it ideal for professionals on the go. The MacBook Air line is known for its sleek design and long battery life, and a 15-inch model would likely continue this trend.
On the other hand, if it is a new MacBook Pro, it could feature more powerful hardware suitable for demanding tasks such as video editing and software development. The MacBook Pro line traditionally includes more robust processors, higher RAM options, and better graphics capabilities. This would make it a compelling choice for creative professionals who need a powerful yet portable machine.
Market Implications and Consumer Expectations
The introduction of a 15-inch ultra-thin laptop could have significant implications for the laptop market. Apple has always been a trendsetter in the tech industry, and a new model could push other manufacturers to innovate and release their own ultra-thin laptops. This could lead to a wider range of options for consumers, driving competition and potentially lowering prices.
Consumers have high expectations for Apple products, and this new device will be no exception. Apple fans will be looking for a laptop that combines performance, design, and usability. Features such as a Retina display, Thunderbolt ports, and the latest macOS will be highly anticipated. Additionally, the integration of Apple’s M1 chip, which has received rave reviews for its performance and efficiency, could be a game-changer for this new model.
Personally, I think if we are going to see a new 15 inch ultra slim MacBook it will be the MacBook Air, as Apple would have to revamp the 13 inch and 17 inch MacBook Pro’s at the same time if they were going to launch an ultra thin 15 inch MacBook Pro. The MacBook Air has always been synonymous with portability and elegance, and a larger screen size would make it even more versatile for users who need more screen real estate without sacrificing portability.
