The redesigned MacBook Air might have an M1, not an M2
TF Worldwide Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo “strongly believes” that the upcoming MacBook Air redesign will function an M1 chip, as a substitute of the broadly anticipated “M2” improve. Kuo made the remark to 9to5Mac following a tweet the place he predicted an “all-new” design for the laptop computer with extra colour choices and no Mini LED show.
The redesigned MacBook Air had beforehand been reported to have an M2 chip by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. Apple can after all resolve its personal nomenclature for its chips based mostly on advertising causes, but when the M1 naming scheme follows the A-series chips in iPhones and iPads, the subsequent quantity up would denote an improve within the CPU design. The M1 chips, together with the M1 Professional, Max, and the just-announced Extremely, all use numerous configurations of CPU cores based mostly on what’s discovered within the iPhone 12’s A14 chip.
An M2, then, would probably use cores derived from the A15 or the presumed A16 on this yr’s upcoming iPhones. As for the brand new MacBook Air, if it did persist with the M1 chip and branding, it might theoretically nonetheless provide a efficiency improve by the use of together with extra cores. 7-core- and 8-core-GPU variants of the M1 exist already, and Gurman has reported that Apple is testing an unnamed chip with 8 CPU cores and 10 GPU cores. That would both be the M2 or an upgraded M1.
Kuo expects the brand new MacBook Air will start mass manufacturing in late Q2 or Q3 this yr.

A new Doctor Who spinoff series is coming to Disney Plus
The Doctor Who franchise is about to get even bigger with a new spinoff series that, interestingly, doesn’t seem like it’s going to focus on everyone’s favorite Time Lord.
During the Doctor Who panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Disney and the BBC announced that The War Between The Land And The Sea — a new series written by Russell T. Davies and Pete McTighe — is on the way. Rather than the Doctor, the new show will revolve around a group of humans as they work together to face the Sea Devils, a race of ancient, ocean-dwelling creatures who first appeared in Doctor Who back in 1972.
Jemma Redgrave and Alexander Devrient are set to reprise their roles as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart and Colonel Ibrahim, respectively, but they will also be joined by Russell Tovey and Gugu Mbatha-Raw as characters not yet revealed. Previously, Tovey and Mbatha-Raw both starred in Doctor Who —he as Titanic midshipman Alonso Frame, and she as Tish Jones — but it’s not clear whether that’s who they’ll be playing here.
In a press release about the new show, Davies called it “a huge, muscular, thrilling drama which will shake The Whoniverse to its foundations,” and while we don’t know when to expect its debut, it’s scheduled to begin shooting in August.
