Kirsten KaneAmid numerous leaks hinting at a new Apple Watch, a new MacBook Pro and the new iPhone 7 surfacing online, not even a single update of the MacBook Air seems to be stirring the conversations among MacBook enthusiasts, BGR reported.
The report also claimed that the MacBook Air line is slowly being scrapped with rumors claiming that Apple is presently concentrating on MacBook Pro 2016.
However, lately, Apple is expected to announce a handful of major updates for its highly anticipated MacBook Air in the coming weeks, according to a new report by reliable Apple Watcher, Mark Gurman.
It has been rumored that the tech company is pending a release on the MacBook Air with a collection of hardware improvements including upgraded processors and graphics.

The laptop is rumored to be more portable and flexible as an outcome of its lighter and thinner hardware as opposed to other up-to-date models, featuring new batteries, Intel Skylake processors and cooling systems.
In terms of price, the 13-inch MacBook Air is likely to cost $980, while the 15-inch model is rumored to carry a price tag of about $1,100.
