As Apple prepares to finally bring the M4-powered MacBook Air to market, what can Apple's community expect in the next macOS-powered laptop?

The M4 chip, which has already been integrated into the latest MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini models, comes with a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU.

The odd little 13-inch MacBook Pro was refreshed with the M2 chip, but it became the only MacBook to retain the old design. In late 2023, Apple finally phased that out with its M3 MacBook Pro release in favor of a more affordable 14-inch MacBook Pro — the first in that design to feature a base M-series chip.

Apple has finally wrapped up 2024 with some innovative products such as new generation iPhone, MacBook Pro, M4 series chips, iPads, and more. Now, as we have entered 2025, several new products are expected to be launched in the first half of the year.

TL;DR: This refurbished MacBook Air is on sale for $230 (reg. $999) through January 12—or while supplies last. What they say is true: Once you go Mac, you never go back! If you’re thinking about making the switch from Windows to Apple,
