What can we expect from Apple’s rumored new 2026 MacBook, with an iPhone processor?

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-14 03:31:56

Analyst Ming–Chi Kuo has suggested that Apple plans to launch an all–new MacBook next year, powered by an iPhone processor. Specifically, he expects it to have the A18 Pro chip which currently powers the iPhone 16 Pro line–up. While there’s no word on pricing, the only way the report makes sense is if Apple is targeting an even lower price than the $999 starting–point of the current MacBook Air. Indeed, if you factor in discounted pricing on that, then it would have to be significantly cheaper.

Biologists Uncover Previously Unknown Structure Hiding Inside Human Cells
