New 15-inch MacBook to Enter Mass Production in 1H23 [Report]

Apple is planning to begin mass production of a new 15-inch MacBook in the first half of 2023, according to TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

In a tweet today, Kuo outlined his predictions for the new notebook...

Prediction updates:
1. New 15" MacBook would go to mass production in mid-1H23, and launch date may be 2Q23 or later.
2. New 15" MacBook may offer two CPU options, M2 (with 35W adapter) & M2 Pro (with 67W adapter).
3. I haven't heard of any plans for rumored 12" MacBook yet.


Notably, it's unclear if the notebook referenced will be a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro; however, a recent report from Bloomberg predicted a 15-inch MacBook Air will arrive as early as next spring.

Apple just unveiled a redesigned 13.6-inch MacBook Air this month but has yet to announce when pre-orders will go live. Please download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for updates.
