Even as the MacBook Air just got a refresh, Apple is reportedly working on a 15-inch version of the slim laptop. It'll reportedly launch at the end of 2023 or early 2024. This rumoured device will be the closest to the larger 16-inch MacBook Pro. This 15-inch variant will be the same as the current 13.6-inch model, which just launched.

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the company is also working on a 12-inch MacBook, but it isn't clear what model this will be. Apple hasn't offered a laptop of this size since the Retina MacBook was discontinued.
