MacBook Air or Pro: purchase guide for Apple laptops in the summer of 2019

Technology

With the surprise renewal of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro we saw yesterday, Apple’s range of laptops has experienced one of the biggest changes in a long time. Not only have we seen hardware upgrades, but the farewell to older models of the MacBook Air and the 12-inch MacBook. Apple has done a thorough cleaning.

This causes that who is considering right now the purchase of a new Apple laptop to see their schemes completely broken. So the best thing we can do right now is to clear the table and put back what the portable range offers us right now to choose the MacBook that suits us right now.

Let’s focus on the portable range and not on the desktop, which have not been updated. Without taking into account the optional configurations, this is the price scale of Apple’s portable range to date. Notice how the prices are progressing:
