In addition, with this announcement, the "MacBook Air" M2 model has been reduced in price by up to 30,000 yen.
According to the latest information, the new MacBook Air was expected to be unveiled at an online Apple event in March, but contrary to expectations, Apple did not hold a press conference and instead released sales and specification information directly at the Apple Store.
Also, Apple unveiled the latest M3 chip in October 2023, and at that time only announced the 14-inch and 16-inch models of the MacBook Pro equipped with the "M3" chip . The new MacBook Air was then announced on March 4, 2024 (US time).
