Published on July 10, 2019, Apple has made significant changes to its MacBook lineup, eliminating its cheapest and smallest models.
The company has removed the $999 (Ksh103,000) MacBook Air and 12-inch MacBook from its online store, making the new MacBook Air the cheapest option at $1,099 (Ksh113,000).
However, college students can still purchase the new MacBook Air at a discounted price of $999 (Ksh103,000).
Apple's decision to raise prices is the latest example of the company's trend of increasing prices across its product lines, including the flagship iPhone.
The 13-inch MacBook Air and 12-inch MacBook were first released in 2015, offering a unique blend of size and price.
Rumors suggest that Apple may be planning further changes to its laptop lines, including a new MacBook keyboard with sturdier and clickier keys.
