New MacBook Air 13-Inch and 15-Inch Coming At WWDC 2016 – Rumor

The Taipei, Taiwan based Chinese language Economic Daily News’s Xie Yili reports that major redesign of the MacBook Air, which currently dates back to October, 2010, is expected to be unveiled next year in flagship 13-inch and 15-inch configurations. That appears to mean the 11.6-inch Air is on the bubble, crowded out by the recent 12-inch MacBook with Retina display and the iPad Pro.

Xie cites industry supply chain insider reports that the new MacBook Air will be even thinner than existing models, offer higher performance, and debut next year at Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference, and likely produced by longtime Apple collaborator Quanta.

Xie says supply chain sources are very optimistic about Apple notebook shipments for next year, and that this new machine to replace the existing volume-seller MacBook Air is expected to launch a buying wave.
