So until Apple makes an official statement or announcement to confirm or deny the reports and rumors about the refreshed 2015 MacBook Air or the all-new 2016 MacBook Air, this information are merely speculations for now.
But according to the latest rumors, Apple is currently working on its 2016 MacBook Air which reportedly would feature a substantial upgrade of its 2015 MacBook Air that the company launched more than eight months ago.
If it is true that there is indeed a 2016 MacBook Air in development at this time, then it is possible that the rumored 15-inch variant of the 2015 MacBook Air may not be coming out at all later this year.
Apple would certainly not want another MacBook Air to steal the thunder from its upcoming flagship MacBook Air. It does not make any logical business sense in terms of marketing and production.
History also indicates that Apple only launches one MacBook Air every year. It launched the 2013 MacBook Air amid positive and overwhelming response from consumers because it offered major improvements from the previous MacBook Air models.
The following year, the company made a minor refresh of the laptop by using upgraded Intel Haswell processors that the 2013 version also used. The 2015 edition of the MacBook Air is now using Intel’s new Broadwell processors and also offered faster flash storage.
