Seemingly channeling his inner Phil Collins, Apple CEO Tim Cook took to X (formerly Twitter) to post the words “This week” alongside a six-second teaser video that features the words “There’s something in the Air” and a thin blue line that cuts through the last word.
To me and my esteemed colleagues here at TechRadar that would point towards a somewhat imminent announcement of a new MacBook Air, like a refreshed version of the current 13-inch and 15-inch Air laptops with the core addition being Apple’s latest M4 chip.
Such specualtion os backed up by Bloomberg reporter and accurate Apple tipster Mark Gurman reporting that Apple is set to announce the MacBook Air M4 any day now.
Gurman also noted that the rumored iPad 11 and a next-generation iPad Air “probably won’t come in the next few days.” Which against would indicate that Apple may reveal this week are new MacBook Airs.
Of course, I and others don’t know this for sure as Apple remains as tight-lipped as ever, so this article will act as a one-stop-shop for the latest rumors, opinion and speculation so far building into what could be a decent-sized Apple announcement on the horizon.
Let’s get into it.
Hello. Mobile Computing Managing Editor Roland Moore-Colyer here to take you through the Apple rumors and TechRadar musings so far. I’ve been covering such Apple announcements and major Apple events for years, so I feel I’m qualified to have a good ol’ stab at speculating what we might see from Apple this week.
