Apple is reportedly working on a brand-new, low-cost MacBook aimed at launching in early 2026 — and it could be the company’s most affordable laptop in years. The goal is simple: bring macOS and Apple’s ecosystem to a much lower price point.
In this video, I break down everything we know so far about Apple’s upcoming budget MacBook — from the rumored A18 Pro chip and 13-inch LCD display to what kind of performance you can expect and how Apple could price this model “well under $1,000.”
If Apple really hits that $699-$799 range, this could be the first truly mainstream MacBook that rivals budget Chromebooks and Windows laptops — without cutting too many corners.
💬 Let me know in the comments: would you buy a $699 MacBook if it still had Apple Intelligence and great battery life?
