  • Apple will likely delay its first MacBook Air with an OLED screen, according to supply chain sources.
  • The laptop was expected to launch in 2027, but it’s now expected to be delayed even more.
  • It’s believed that poor sales of the first OLED-equipped iPad Pro and display costs are to blame for the delay.

We’ve heard rumors for years now that Apple was planning to bring OLED screens to its MacBook line. Now, it sounds like the company might delay the cheapest MacBook with an OLED panel.

Analysts apparently expected Apple to launch an OLED-equipped MacBook Pro in 2026 and then an OLED-equipped MacBook Air in 2027. However, The Elec reports that the latter model is likely to be delayed, citing Korean supply chain sources.
