Apple’s new MacBook Air with an M5 chip arrives just when many of us could use a laptop that simply gets the job done without breaking the bank or causing us any problems. The 13-inch variant costs $1099, while the 15-inch version costs $1299, which is $100 more than the previous generation of M4 Macbooks. With education pricing, you can reduce that to $999 and $1199, respectively.

Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman sent a Tuesday newsletter, and the entire internet caught fire. Apple, the corporation that once offered an absurdly pricey $10,000 gold watch, is quietly working on a laptop that will cost far less than $1,000. Not a clearance sale Air or refurbished Pro, but the real deal: a brand-new MacBook with an iPhone brain inside.
A Chinese modder named Shu Chan has created a device that looks like it came straight out of an Apple keynote. Dubbed the iPadBook, this hybrid combines an M1 MacBook Air and an M4 iPad Pro into one shape-shifting device that toggles between a full-fledged laptop running macOS and a standalone tablet running iPadOS.
