A new report indicates that the highly anticipated OLED display technology in the MacBook Air might be delayed until 2029. The delay is attributed to concerns over potentially increasing the price due to the costly OLED technology. Despite many users eagerly awaiting the OLED feature, there are worries that its addition could compromise the affordability of the MacBook Air, which is currently recognized for its reasonable price compared to other Apple laptops.
The MacBook Air, known for its balance of quality and price, caters to a wider audience beyond professional users who prioritize top-tier features. While an OLED display would undoubtedly enhance the MacBook Air’s visuals, many customers value the laptop’s overall performance and durability at a reasonable cost more. The postponement of the OLED MacBook Air until 2029 may allow for cost reductions in OLED technology, potentially striking a balance between premium features and affordability in the future.
