Everything we think we know about the new MacBook that Apple could announce soon
Expect a 13-inch display, like the current MacBook Air.
The new MacBook Air will reportedly include a higher-resolution Retina display, but it's unclear if it will be the same "Super Retina Display" in the iPhone X.
The MacBook Air is currently the only Apple-made laptop without a Retina display.
The Bloomberg report says the new MacBook Air will have thinner bezels, or borders around the display.
You could probably expect something similar to the Huawei MateBook X Pro, another laptop with razor-thin bezels.
It's still unclear what Apple will name this laptop.
It could be called a MacBook Air, as a true sequel to the 13-inch model that retails for $999, or it could be a successor to the 12-inch MacBook that released in 2015, which starts at $1,299.
Bloomberg said the starting price of the 12-inch MacBook "put it out of reach for some consumers," so it would be reasonable to expect the familiar MacBook Air branding, especially if it has a similar price point.
Expect an announcement before the end of the year — possibly around October. In the years when Apple has announced new Macs in the fall, it has typically done so during October.
Apple will also reportedly introduce a new Mac Mini around the same time as this new laptop, according to Bloomberg.
