Apple is reportedly preparing to launch its most affordable MacBook yet, priced around $599, with mass production expected to begin in the third quarter of 2025 and a launch planned by the end of the year. This new MacBook is said to be powered by the A18 Pro chip, the same processor used in the iPhone 16 Pro, and is expected to feature a 12.9-inch display and an ultra-thin design. The device aims to compete aggressively in the budget laptop market, potentially challenging Chromebooks, particularly in the US. Meanwhile, rumors about the upcoming iPhone 17 series suggest the inclusion of the faster A19 chip, improved camera systems surpassing those of the iPhone 16 Pro, and design updates such as an ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air and a large camera bump on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Additionally, a new Apple TV powered by the A17 Pro chip is anticipated later this year.
