Apple is planning to unveil three new laptops at its Worldwide Developer Conference next month, reports Bloomberg. The move is viewed as an attempt to offset new competition from Microsoft and declining iPad sales.
Apple is planning three new laptops, according to people familiar with the matter. The MacBook Pro will get a faster Kaby Lake processor from Intel Corp., said the people, who requested anonymity to discuss internal planning. Apple is also working on a new version of the 12-inch MacBook with a faster Intel chip. The company has also considered updating the aging 13-inch MacBook Air with a new processor as sales of the laptop, Apple’s cheapest, remain surprisingly strong, one of the people said.
The new MacBook is thought to differ mostly in internal architecture. It's been rumored that Apple is working on an in-house chip to manage low-power mode; however, it's unclear if that will debut in the upcoming model.
Apple's MacBook hasn't received a speed bump since 2015 and the 12-inch MacBook was last updated in April 2016. The company is expected to also unveil a new version of macOS at WWDC.
