Apple’s slow trickle of early 2025 product announcements is apparently set to continue this week, following the introduction of the iPhone 16e<\/a> a couple of weeks ago. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman<\/a>, the company plans to refresh its 13- and 15-inch MacBook Air laptops “as early as this coming week,” adding the M4 processor that Apple put in the iMac, Mac mini, and MacBook Pro lineups last fall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An M4 refresh for the MacBook Air was always likely, but Apple has kept us guessing about the timing. Usually, the MacBook Airs are among the first devices to get new M-series processors from Apple, but Apple surprised us by bringing the M4 to the iPad Pro<\/a> just a few months after introducing the M3<\/a>. In mid-December, concrete references to the M4 MacBook Air appeared in the macOS 15.2 update<\/a>, suggesting that the laptops were in testing, even if they weren’t ready for a public launch yet.<\/p>\n

The laptops are unlikely to look too different from the current M2 or M3 MacBook Airs, which got an “update” of sorts last fall<\/a> when Apple discontinued the versions with 8GB of RAM in favor of 16GB versions that kept the same prices.<\/p>\n
