New MacBook Air might still be a year away from launch due to component shortage
India Today
The next generation of MacBook Air was earlier expected to mark a debut sometime during the middle of next year. A new speculation now suggests that this launch timeline might have been affected due to component shortage, possible leading to a launch date of Q3, 2022 for the new MacBook Air.
The next upgrade to the MacBook Air might be a while away, as a noted analyst now predicts a further delay in its production timeline. If or when this delay reflects on the previously predicted launch timeline, the M2-powered MacBook Air might just be yet another product to have been hit by the chip shortage in the world.
The last iteration of Apple's much-celebrated series of laptops was released around this time last year and featured Apple's M1 chipset. It was earlier speculated that Apple will bring an upgrade to this with a new M2-chipset on the next version of MacBook Air, possibly marking its debut sometime in the middle of next year. A new prediction from the same source now supercedes this.
