The completely redesigned M2 MacBook Air will reportedly be available for pre-order on July 8, with a release date slated for one week later on July 15. It was first unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June, which is an event that Apple holds each year centered around software and developers.

At the 2022 event, the 13-inch MacBook Pro was refreshed with the M2 chip, and the MacBook Air was finally redesigned to fit with the company's current design language. Though Apple provided no official release date at WWDC, a new report gives a glimpse of when the new laptop might be released.

Apple unveiled the MacBook Air alongside the 13-inch MacBook Pro, but the upgrades were not precisely proportional. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with the M2 processor is virtually identical to the previous model containing the last-generation M1 chip. It lacks some of the new features on the redesigned laptops, including the M2 MacBook Air, the 14-inch MacBook Pro, and the 16-inch MacBook Pro. Most importantly, the two devices are not on the same release schedule. The 13-inch MacBook Pro was available for pre-order on June 17 and was released on June 24, but the M2 MacBook Air's release schedule has remained much more ambiguous.
