As it was already announced this Monday, this was not going to be a normal week. With the arrival of the new Powerbeats 4, it was predicted that we would be facing a week full of hardware releases by Apple and it seems that it is being fulfilled. And is that if you were thinking of updating your old Mac, now you have an incredible opportunity because both the MacBook Air and the Mac mini have been renewed. In this article we tell you all the details about it.
Features MacBook Air 2020
One of the big problems that the MacBook Air had was undoubtedly its keyboard that had a butterfly mechanism. It is already known by all that Apple has been forced to rectify by developing a new scissor keyboard mechanism. This keyboard that was baptized as Magic Keyboard we saw in the MacBook Pro 2019 of 16 ″. Now this keyboard has been included in this renewed MacBook Air 2020 being one of the main novelties that it includes.
Also, as expected, the processor has been updated to the latest generation of Intel available, specifically the tenth generation. We will be able to personalize our new Mac with up to a quad-core Intel Core i7 with up to 1.2 GHz. In the storage section, important changes have also been made, because now we can choose up to 2TB . Also, the base model is now part of the 256GB that we believe is a much more suitable capacity.
In the design the truth is that we do not see any major changes, so we are facing a routine update of components and also to include the keyboard with its new mechanism. The truth is that this leaves us quite intrigued about the continuity of the 13 ″ MacBook Pro that has not come to light and would have been the ideal to include this Magic Keyboard.
Price and availability
This is the most basic MacBook that we can buy today and that is why the price is also adjusted. This new MacBook Air 2020 can be purchased from today through the Apple Store Online . The most basic model starts from € 1199 with a tenth generation Intel Core i3 processor at 1.1 GHz. This configuration may be more than enough to be able to carry out the most basic tasks without having to purchase the Pro model, which obviously has a price much older.
Features Mac mini 2020
The update of the Mac mini has undoubtedly caught many of us by surprise. And the truth is that after checking the features, we see that we are facing a very decaffeinated update . Specifically, the base storage with which these Mac mini arrive has been updated. Now we can get hold of the 256 GB model for € 929 and the 512 GB model for € 1,279 being available today through the Apple Store Online.
We say it is a decaffeinated update because there are no more new features in the internal hardware of the product. The predictable thing would have been to include the tenth generation processors of Intel, but they have been left with some already “outdated” eighth generation processors. We do not understand that they have done this, since this makes them not as attractive as other equipment that is now available in the Apple Store Online.
