A leakster has revealed that the upcoming MacBook Air will use a brand new ‘M2’ chip. While its performance specs have not been unmentioned, the processor will most likely not be more powerful than the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips that the latest MacBook Pros come with.

The MacBook Air is after all not aimed at professional users and favors value for money. But that obviously doesn’t mean that the notebook will be delivering lackluster performance as the current MacBook Air with its M1 chip has already proven its prowess.

Further, dylandkt has claimed in the series of tweets that the upcoming MacBook Air once again will not be coming with any cooling fans. This suggests that the ‘M2’ silicon is once again highly efficient and requires less power which in turn generates less heat.

The leakster talked about the design of the notebook as well saying that it will be doing away with its familiar wedge shape for a more squarish design not unlike the one found on the current 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. The upcoming Air will also be thinner and lighter.

Mini-LED is considered likely, although the leakster couldn’t confirm if Apple will be adopting a notch to house the 1080p camera. ProMotion variable refresh rate tech will not be making its way to the MacBook Air 2022.

Apart from this, the 2022 MacBook Air will feature USB C ports, a 30W power adapter, full-sized function keys, and multiple external display support according to dylandkt.

Last but not least, the laptop’s starting price is expected to increase slightly. The color options will be similar to the ones found on the iMac 24. The laptop’s bezels and keyboard will transition from black to an off-white hue.

The new MacBook Air with the M2 chip is expected to make its debut in the middle of 2022.
