MacBook Air Retina 2015 Release Date News: Specs Include 12-Inch Display

Ever since the Retina technology made its way to the MacBook Pros, a lot of Apple fans have been waiting for the tech to reach the company's Air lineup. Unfortunately, the MacBook Air with Retina Display release date has been delayed since last year.

However, a recent report may have confirmed that the new ultraportable MacBooks are coming very soon.

According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, the new MacBook Air with a higher resolution display is already under way. The laptop is already under mass production, but they would not be shipped yet until April or June.

Based on previous rumors, the new MacBook Air with Retina Display will be Apple's first laptop that boasts a 12-inch display rather than the usual 11.6 and 13.3-inch models.

In addition, an earlier report from Mark Gurman of 9to5mac also mentioned that the device will have a "radically new design."

Dubbed as the "MacBook Stealth" (as it's called internally), the device takes out the full-sized USB ports, the MagSafe connector, and the SD Card.

Instead, a reversible USB Type-C port, headphone jack and dual-microphones would replace the ports.

The upcoming Macbook Air with Retina Display is also expected to boast the newest Intel Broadwell chipset, which is even more powerful and power-efficient than Haswell.

The new chip does not support fans anymore, resulting in an even thinner frame.

In the report, the Apple Watch will be officially unveiled next week, though it will not be surprising if the Cupertino manufacturer will include the newest MacBook Air in the event.
