Apple is expected to treat its low-cost MacBook with the same importance as its more expensive portable Macs, as the technology giant has been reported to utilize the same unibody aluminum chassis paired with some bright colors, so the machine stands out from the competition. However, the Cupertino firm had an entirely different plan for when it launched the M2 MacBook Air, as the latter was supposed to be treated to the aforementioned finishes, at least according to the latest rumor.
Apple’s invite image suggests that the low-cost MacBook will arrive in the colors blue, green, and blue, with these finishes expected to debut with the M2 MacBook Air
If the 24-inch M1 iMac and AirPods Max can arrive in a unique blend of color options, there’s no reason for Apple to stop this approach with other devices. The technology giant previously contemplated this change for the M2 MacBook Air, which featured a major redesign. A reason isn’t provided by Momentary Digital on Weibo as to what prevented Apple from adding various colors to its previous-generation machines, but it is possible that down the road, the company decided that these options would be exclusive to the affordable version.
The low-cost MacBook appears to have been in testing for a while because Apple’s A15 Bionic was reportedly a part of its innards. For those who don’t know, the commercial units are expected to ship with the A18 Pro. There’s no confirmation on which year the California-based titan decided to ship the M2 MacBook Air with regular colors, but the only time we got to see a paint job that’s a touch different from the lineup was the Sky Blue variant of the 13-inch and 15-inch M4 MacBook Air.
Given that the low-cost model will appeal more to college students thanks to its affordable price, an assortment of brighter colors can make it an attractive proposition since it can give them a chance to personalize the rest of the school paraphernalia with those unique finishes. Of course, it is essential to remember that Momentary Digital’s posts should be treated with a pinch of salt, but since Apple has experimented with attractive colors with previous Macs, there’s no reason to believe the company didn’t attempt it for the MacBook Air. To remind you, Apple is hosting a product launch event on March 4, so let us keep our fingers crossed for a future launch.
