Mass production of M4 MacBook Air models is imminent
Wednesday October 23, 2024. 10:04 PM , from Mac Daily News
Apple is close to the start of mass production of new M4 MacBook Air models for release in early 2025, a follow-up to a wave of new Macs that are coming next week, Mark Gurman reports for Bloomberg News citing “people familiar with the matter.”: The latest MacBook Air models will look similar to the current design, launched in 2022, but will include the new M4 chip generation, according to the people, who asked not to be identified because the products haven’t been announced. The company is set to soon begin manufacturing new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Airs codenamed J713 and J715, they said. Apple is taking the rare step of upgrading its entire line of Mac computers to the same generation of chip — the M4 — which will speed up performance and better handle artificial intelligence tasks. The refresh will include new MacBook Pros, Mac minis and iMacs coming next week. The M4 MacBook Air line is scheduled to be released after a December software update, so the new machines are likely to arrive between January and March, the people said. MacDailyNews Take: Bring ’em on! They’ll be huge sellers! MacDailyNews Note: Gurman also reports that Apple “has pushed back the release of a new high-end Mac Studio, a desktop machine aimed at professionals that doesn’t include a display. That model — codenamed J575 — had been on a similar schedule as the MacBook Air, but now it’s likely to come after a March software release, putting its debut between March and June. Apple also continues to work on an M4 version of the Mac Pro, its most expensive computer.” We are currently about 1/4th of the way to being sustainable with Substack subscriptions. Not a bad start!
