The rumored OLED MacBook Air delays aren’t a bad thing – the last thing I want is a price increase


  • A new rumor suggests that the OLED MacBook Air has been delayed until 2029
  • OLED technology could drive up the price, so a delay isn’t the worst news
  • By 2029, OLED could be much more affordable

Apple’s MacBook Air is of surprising quality considering it’s the company’s most affordable laptop, with a lightning-fast chip and excellent build quality that make it feel much more premium than it should. Yet it’s always lacked a true flagship display – an OLED screen – and a new rumor suggests we’ll now have to wait until 2029 for this technology to make its debut in Apple’s laptop.

That’s what the leaker says Jukanlosreve on Xquoting the Korean outlet The Electric to claim that the apparent poor sales performance of the OLED iPad Pro has caused Apple to delay the release date of the OLED MacBook Air. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about a delay to the OLED MacBook Air, and it may sound strange to hear it, but I’m actually glad there’s more evidence that it’s been delayed.
