Tim Cook and his team must answer three questions on the future MacBook Air when we get to WWDC 2022.

. While the MacBook Air debuted the new ARM-based Apple Silicon in 2020, the Mac platform has made significant steps forward. What will be carried over to a New MacBook Air, when will we see it, and what will power the new macOS laptop?Recanati, Macerata, Italia - June 11, 2020: Brand new rose gold macbook air on a wooden tableThe first M1 MacBook Air laptops retained the styling and weak design choices of the Intel-based MacBooks… a design that harkened back to 2016.

Key in those design choices are the I/O port options. The premium macOS laptops picked up a wide range of ports, including an SD Card reader and an HDMI port. Will Apple restrict these to the more expensive laptops, or will these useful features be available on the consumer-focused MacBook Air? After all, not every amateur photographer or video editor needs to spend $3,000 on a top tier machine, the power of Apple Silicon should suffice even at the $1000 level.

If the new MacBook Air is to be for everybody, Apple should not artificially restrict the specs just to generate an upsell to the MacBook Pro. Secondly is the question of the chipset. Obviously, it’s going to be an Apple Silicon chip, and just as obviously it’s not going to be the same M1 processor. But what will it be? The easy answer is that the MacBook Air in 2022 will have the same honor as the MacBook Air in 2020 and be one of the launch devices of the M2 chipset.

Apple doesn’t just have the M1. Since its launch, there have been several variants, with the M1 Pro, M1 Max, and M1 Ultra showing up. Just because there’s a new MacBook Air on the way, does not necessarily mean the M2 will join it. But if not on the MacBook Air, when would you launch the M2 chipset?
