Apple has now planned to enter the cheap laptop market. For the last several years, there has been a rumor market about cheap MacBook, but now a report is claiming that the company will launch a new MacBook with the iPhone’s chipset. Some more information regarding this has also been given in the report. It is being said that Apple may launch a cheaper MacBook in the first half of next year.
Ongoing testing of affordable MacBook
According to media reports, Apple is testing a new MacBook model with code name J700. Many suppliers have also started preparations for its production. Usually Apple does not launch cheap products, but the launch of this MacBook is not surprising. Before now, the company has not used iPhone chips in any Mac because they did not have that much power, but now such chips have come in iPhone models, which are more powerful than the M1 chip launched in 2020.
How much can the price be?
The price of Apple’s cheap MacBook can be less than $ 1,000 (about Rs 88,700) and it will use less-advanced components of the rest of the MacBook. This MacBook can be launched with iPhone processor and low-end LCD display. Some earlier reports had said that the cheap MacBook could be launched at a price of $599 (about Rs 53,000). This laptop is being specially designed for those people who mostly use their system for web browsing and creating documents.
Market share may be affected
Talking about the laptop market, Apple currently has 9 percent market share and is the fourth largest company. In this market, Lenovo is at first place, HP is at second place and Dell is at third place. Apple’s market share is expected to increase by launching cheaper MacBook.
