Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), postpone the launch of the new model of MacBook Air 2018 which he was preparing to bring to the market in the middle of this year, WWDC 2018 being the event where his presentation was expected. Despite numerous rumors suggesting that Apple will launch this new model of MacBook Air in June, it seems that production has been postponed to Q3 2018.
Apple did not explain to its partners the reason why it made the decision to postpone the launch of the new MacBook Air model, which would have a 13-inch screen, but it is speculated that the processors would be the problem. Intel recently announced that it will not release the Intel Canon Lake processors until 2019, so it is possible that Apple has relied on them for the new MacBook Air, but now it will have to rethink everything.
Apple AMANA Release of a new Mac Important
Apple intends to launch the new MacBook Air at a lower price than the previous models, but with a Retina Display, so it is understandable why it needs a powerful processor, but which consumes little energy. Considering that Intel will produce the Cannon Lake processors with a 7nm manufacturing process, they met Apple's requirements, but are not yet ready for mass production.
"Apple has informed supply chain partners that mass production of its new notebook model for 2018 will not kick off until the second half of the year, yet without explaining the rescheduling move. Some partners speculated that the postponement might be caused by problems with some key components such as processors."
Apple has not updated the MacBook Air series for several years, so many people were waiting with great interest for the release of a new model for this series of laptops. Having said that, it is very possible that during WWDC 2018 Apple will announce only iPhone SE 2, without a new model of MacBook Air, but maybe we will see other interesting products.
