As WWDC 2022 approaches, the good news is the once fashionable design that hobbled the first M1 MacBook Pro and MacBook Air laptops is set to be replaced.
Apple’s MacBook Pro and MacBook Air may have broken the rules when they debuted with Apple Silicon, but as WWDC 2022 approaches many are expecting to see Apple’s plans for its next laptops. The M1 MacBook Air especially looked tired and dated, even while racking up benchmarking scores matching laptops twice its price, but the M1 MacBook Pro suffered the same fate. With the launch of the larger 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro machines, Tim Cook and his team junked the years old design and refreshed the MacBook Pro. Thankfully, that design language is expected to come to the next generation of MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, which should blend the new form and the additional functionality for consumers. Apple has the new look ready to go, and this year’s update to the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are going to put more emphasis on functionality.
