Portability and a big screen?

Apple is working on a new, larger 15-inch version of the MacBook Air.
It’ll be the first time in Apple’s history that it makes a large-screen, non-pro laptop.

MacBook Where?
Now, things are more coherent as Apple slowly rolls out its Apple Silicon range.
But how many people are willing to pay an extra $1,000doubling their purchase pricejust for a bigger screen?

Some, clearly, but not all.
A 15-inch Air might be just the ticket.
The price difference between the 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros is $500.
So a 15-inch Air might start at $1,500, or perhaps even less.

Who would need a bigger screen?
A big screen is nice wherever you use it because you might fit more on-screen at once.
For portable use, it’s even better.
“I own a MacBook Air,” knowledge worker and MacBook Air userIan Sellstold Lifewire via email.
“In my home setup, it is attached with a 24-inch monitor.
If you are a remote worker, a bigger screen is a must.
Everybody, especially those who work outside their home, wants something portable and lightweight.”
Whether or not this is called a MacBook Air doesn’t really matter.
