Apple Starts Small Volume Production of New 12-Inch MacBook Air?

Posted October 8, 2014 at 3:48pm by iClarified
Quanta Computer has started production of the 12-inch MacBook Air for Apple in small volumes, reports DigiTimes. Output volume will gradually be increased starting in November, according to their sources.

Since initial production of 12-inch MacBook Air has not yet reached a satisfactory yield rate, component makers and Quanta are making efforts to hike yield rates for the time being, the sources said. As initial production is in limited volumes, 12-inch MacBook Air may not be able to hit the store shelves in time for Christmas, the sources indicated.

The new MacBook Air is apparently even thinner than current models and will likely have a Retina display. Previous rumors suggested it could come in multiple colors and would feature a fanless design, a trackpad without a mechanical button, and thinner bezels.

12 inch screen is a bit small. They better come out with a 13.3 inch version as well.
