Apple launched its latest MacBook Air with the Apple M2 chipset earlier this month during the Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2022. The MacBook Air comes with a new design, and was launched alongside the M2-powered 13-inch MacBook Pro. While the pre-orders for the MacBook Pro have begun, there is no word as to when we will see the M2 MacBook Air in stores and for pre-orders. Now, however, there seems to be a hint about the new MacBook Air’s availability.
According to a report in MacRumours, the Apple MacBook Air could go on pre-orders starting July 8, with the laptop becoming available for purchase starting July 15. The report in MacRumours cites retail sources to give a date for pre-orders and availability for the new MacBook Air. The MacBook Air, which will be priced in India at Rs 1,19,900 onwards, is already expected to be available in July, Apple has said.
