The new budget MacBook could have iPhone’s internals<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The news about the budget MacBook version launching soon is back on the agenda and now reports are giving us more clarity about how affordable this new model could be in the market. And there seems to be good news coming in for people who would be looking to upgrade or buy a new system next year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s new MacBook version could sit below the Air variant in the lineup and priced well below it as well. We could see the company bring back an old screen size for the model and make some other concessions to keep the price down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple MacBook Launch In 2026: How Much It Might Cost<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The report from DigiTimes<\/em> suggests the affordable MacBook model could be priced around $699 (Rs 60,900 approx) which will make it a budget device in the lineup, and sitting below the MacBook Air in Apple\u2019s price chain. The report, quoting sources, further states that Apple could target the new system for students which means a special discounted rate will let them buy the model for $599 (Rs 48,900 approx).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The latest MacBook Air M4 model starts at $999 (Rs 72,400 approx) and the new version will give more buyers the chance to finally own a Mac without spending big.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple Budget MacBook Details<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple could use the iPhone chipset (A-series) to power this MacBook variant which could help in a big way to keep the launch price low.\u00a0 The M-series silicon have shown us Apple\u2019s focus on performance and reliability and the A-series processors are quite close to these levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The MacBook is expected to come in colourful options and likely to feature a 12-inch display rather than 13-inch as mentioned in earlier reports.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s general consensus with launching affordable products is linked to its obvious premium image. The iPhone 16E is a clear example of its thinking, which replaced the SE moniker this year priced at Rs 59,900 and seems to have gotten an underwhelming response from the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Can the $699 priced MacBook buck this trend and give people enough reasons to invest in the new model? It all depends on how Apple packages the device in terms of the features, hardware and more. <\/span><\/p>\n
