Recently, it was revealed that the upcoming MacBook Pro 2021 models which are set to get launched in just a few hours, will feature a notch on top of the display. It is also being claimed that Apple is planning to cleverly hide the notch from marketing materials.
Now, the same leaker who revealed information about the MacBook Pro 2021 display notch, is claiming that the Apple MacBook Air 2022 models, set to launch early next year, will also come with a notch on top of the screen, reports MacRumors.
He further claims that the upcoming MacBook Air will “look much better” as the company is planning to eliminate the current wedge design. For those who are unaware, the wedge design refers to the MacBook Air body that transitions from thicker at the back to thinner at the front. He says that the next MacBook Air will have a “very round and light” design.
Other reports related to the upcoming MacBook Air models indicate that the technology giant is planning to launch a thinner and lighter version of the machine with thinner bezels than what we have in the current model.
As for the notch on top of the display, unlike the iPhone, this is not for housing sensors for the Face ID functionality. It is said that the notch will house a new 1080p webcam, an ambient light sensor, and an indicator light.
A recent report claims that the next-generation MacBook Air will come with a Mini-LED display with thinner top and bottom edges. It is also being claimed that the laptop will come powered by the next-gen Apple M2 chipset and have a MagSafe branded magnetic power cable for the new charging port.
