Leaker Jon Prosser has said that the new MacBook Air will feature a flat-edged design, which notably would mean the end of the MacBook Air’s iconic tapered body.
Renders shared by Prosser, allegedly created based on real-life images, show a MacBook Air with a flat-edged design that resembles the iPad Pro and iPad Air.
Prosser and reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo have both reported that the 2022 MacBook Air will come in additional colors, similar to the colors of the 24-inch iMac.Other design tweaks to look forward to with the new MacBook Air reportedly include a white keyboard for the first time, as well as white bezels around the display.If all of these rumored changes come to fruition, the new MacBook Air design is likely to be polarizing.According to a handful of rumors, the 2022 MacBook Air is also expected to feature this mini-LED panel.
But while the MacBook Air will reportedly feature mini-LED technology, ProMotion is not in the cards.Some leakers have claimed that, just like the new MacBook Pro, the 2022 MacBook Air will also feature a notch cutout.
While the new MacBook Pro marked the return of ports such as the HDMI connector and SD card slot, the 2022 MacBook Air is not expected to get the same treatment.On the bright side, the leaker Dylandkt, who accurately predicted numerous details about the new iMac and MacBook Pro models, has reported that the new MacBook Air will feature MagSafe for charging.Theoretically, this would mean that the new MacBook Air includes two Thunderbolt ports for charging and other needs, as well as MagSafe purely for charging?
