However, the so called iPhone 7 affair was nothing but a disappointment to some tech fans who were hoping for more devices to be unveiled. Nonetheless, the recent release of iPhone 7 has opened the door for other Apple products to be revealed this year including a new MacBook Air iteration. According to the latest reports, the upcoming laptop along with other hardware products from the Cupertino based company will be launched in October.
It has been a long time since Apple developed a new MacBook Air. Some tech observers thought that the company may never release a new model of the popular laptop line and focus on the new MacBook Pro 2016. However, industry observers believe that Apple is only waiting for the perfect timing to launch its new MacBook Air 2016.
According to the reports, there are speculations suggesting that Apple could be planning for a MacBook event in October. The tech affair from the American tech giant is said to introduce the highly anticipated MacBook Air 2016 and the new MacBook Pro 2016. Although no official announcement has been made as of this time, many fans expect the company to make a statement anytime soon.
Apple has yet to provide the official details of the new MacBook Air 2016; however, several reports have already revealed the specs and features of the new laptop. According to the report, the upcoming device will run on Intel's next generation processor, the Kaby Lake. The powerful processor is said to be paired with some of the best specs in the market today.
