Apple recently launched its refreshed MacBook Pro laptops and is expected to do the same with its MacBook Air series of laptops, which are rumoured to be simply called MacBooks. As per a report by Economic Daily News, via MacRumours, the upcoming MacBook Air laptops could be powered by Intel's eighth-generation Kaby Lake Refresh processors, which were released in the second half of 2017. It was earlier speculated that the company will equip the upcoming laptops with Intel’s Canon Lake chips that are based on 10nm process. However, as Intel is reportedly facing delays with the transition to the 10nm process, Apple has decided to use the Kaby Lake Refresh processors, which are manufactured using a 14nm process. If the report is to be believed, then the revamped MacBook Air could come with the 7th generation i5 and i7 processors with base clock speeds between 1.6GHz and 1.9GHz, and max Turbo Boost speeds between 3.4GHz and 4.2GHz. This is because the processor series consists of only the aforementioned processors that have a 15W TDP and come with integrated Intel UHD 620 Graphics and support up to 32GB of LPDDR3 or DDR4 RAM modules.
