Apple is expected to announce a new MacBook Air with a 15-inch display at the annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 5, according to reports. The device is rumored to feature the M2 chipset from last year’s model and will be one of several product launches at the event, including an AR/VR headset, macOS 14, iOS 17, and watchOS 10.
The xrOS operating system is expected to run on the AR/VR headset. The event is also expected to see the launch of an updated 13-inch MacBook Air, an entry-level 13-inch MacBook Pro, a refreshed 24-inch iMac, and the first-ever Mac Pro with Apple’s own chipsets. High-end MacBook Pro models are also expected to be unveiled at the event.
The announcement of iOS 17 is also anticipated at the event, which is likely to accompany the iPhone 15 series, set to launch later this year. The flagship series is expected to include four models – the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
