A MacBook with an iPhone chip.
That’s what Apple is working on next, at least according to supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The more affordable MacBook would use the same A18 Pro chip found in the iPhone 16 Pro series, and pack a 13-inch display and colorful finishes like silver, blue, pink, and yellow.
Apparently Apple is aiming to sell 5-7 million of them too, making up more than a fifth of its overall laptop sales.
