A 15-inch MacBookAir is rumored to launch at WWDC 2023, but don't get too excited.

Contents Last year we got the redesigned M2 MacBook Air. The year before that was the M1 Max MacBook Pro. And this year? Rumor is we’re getting a 15-inch MacBook Air. That’s right — yet another MacBook for the lineup.

The 15-inch MacBook Air will likely be a sized-up version of the M2 MacBook Air, which has a 13-inch screen. That means it’ll be quite thin, among the thinnest 15-inch laptops that exist. Of course, this isn’t the first time Apple has two sizes of the same laptop. Apple used to have an 11-inch version of the MacBook Air alongside the 13-inch model, although it was discontinued in 2015. There are also the two sizes of the current MacBook Pros, the 14-inch and 16-inch.

And that’s really the problem. I know Apple wants to fill in the price gap between the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro, but it’ll only muddy the waters and weaken the positioning of those respective lines. That’s something we already see with the awful 13-inch MacBook Pro in the mix, leaving the potential buyer to wonder how any of these products compare to one another.

Some manufacturers choose to sell large laptops that have the space for discrete graphics, but also offer cheaper configurations without the graphics. The Dell XPS 15 and HP Envy 16 is a good example. These are fairly thick laptops, but they can be configured with Nvidia discrete graphics. Apple could have taken this same approach, choosing to sell a 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro with just a standard M2 chip.
