It’s been a month since Apple introduced its new chip, the Apple M2, and the new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro built on this innovation integrated from Cupertino at the opening keynote of WWDC 2022. The premiere of the 13.6-inch MacBook Pro on the market came very quickly, but the same did not happen with the MacBook Air M2which continues to show as unavailable on Apple’s website in the United States and Spain at the time of this report.

This delay has since attracted some attention We expected both MacBook models to debut at the same time or at any rate a week or two apart. This was not the case and there are not a few users who have been waiting for this new version of the ultraportable device from Apple and are getting impatient due to the lack of news about it.

And that’s it The MacBook Air M2 2022 will be available for online order starting next Friday, July 8, the day when it is already possible to place orders through Apple’s website. The company announced that this launch will be global and that the first MacBook Air M2 will hit stores and start shipping a week later, i.e. July 15, 2022.
