The big Apple news for early 2024 is the simplification of the iPad line-up, with a new, large M2 iPad Air, the end of the 9th generation iPad and most likely a streamlining of the Apple Pencil range too. But more Macs are coming, and this time around they’re going to have M3 power. However, they're not all going to be released at once.
According to the well connected Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, the next tranche of Macs will be fresh MacBook Airs, currently codenamed J613 and J615 for the 13-inch and 15-inch model respectively. Don't expect Apple to completely reimagine its slimmest laptop: both Airs are expected to get M3 processors inside but remain largely unchanged outside. As Gurman says, that's no bad thing: it means a cutting edge processor in Apple's best-selling laptop.
