Tim Cook has hinted at the arrival of the M4 MacBook Air, which is set to be released this week.

      Apple CEO Tim Cook recently shared a teaser on X with the message “This week,” accompanied by a six-second video that reads “There’s something in the AIR.” Anticipation for the M4 MacBook Air announcement has built over the past few weeks, and with the unveiling of the iPhone 16e behind us, it appears this will be the week for the announcement.

      The timing of this announcement is just right, coinciding with the release of the M3 MacBook Air last year. There have been indications about the new device since December when the macOS Sequoia 15.2 update inadvertently mentioned two models of the 2025 MacBook Air.

      Industry analysts, including Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, do not anticipate any significant upgrades or changes in design this time around, which seems to have become a regular trend with MacBooks lately. Thus, we expect two models to be available in the same sizes as last year: 13.6-inch and 15.3-inch.

      There are rumors from 9to5Mac suggesting that the M4 MacBook Air could support two external displays in addition to its built-in screen, so we will soon find out if this is accurate. Regarding the chip, Apple typically only provides the base model without Pro, Max, or Ultra versions for the MacBook Air, as the product targets consumers looking for lower-cost options suitable for lighter workloads.

      Overall, no surprises are expected with this announcement. Owners of the M3 MacBook Air may not feel compelled to upgrade, while those with M2 or M1 models might consider it. As an M2 Air user myself, I will be watching closely to see if there are incentives for me.

      I’ve been eagerly anticipating a revival of the MacBook. Dell has already made its move.

      I recall when Apple introduced the M1 silicon in the iPad Pro, showcasing a mischievous grin from CEO Tim Cook in his first action-packed advertisement, surprising an unprepared audience. I thought tablet computing would fundamentally change. Just a week later, I invested in the iPad Pro, a decision I did not regret.

      A similar sentiment occurred a decade ago with the launch of the 12-inch MacBook. It was the slimmest laptop ever produced by Apple and an engineering wonder. However, its $1,299 price tag, lackluster performance, controversial keyboard, and mediocre battery life resulted in it not lasting beyond five years.

      I’m excited about the OLED MacBook Pro, but there’s some disappointing news for MacBook Air enthusiasts.

      It’s well known that Apple occasionally takes longer than its competitors to roll out new technology in its products; however, this strategy often pays off. Consider the M4 iPad Pro: competing tablets have featured OLED displays for years, but when Apple entered the market in 2024, its dual OLED panel set a new standard.

      I’ve long hoped that the company would replicate this approach with its top-tier MacBooks, integrating OLED screens into its well-loved laptops that surpass competitors' offerings. Currently, it seems there’s a mix of good and bad news on that front, depending on whether you favor the MacBook Pro or the MacBook Air.
