Teaser
Apple might bring a new hybrid model of the laptop which will have the advantages of both MacBook Pro as well as the MacBook Air

According to a recent report from KGI securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, a new MacBook hybrid laptop can be expected from Apple in the recent future. As we know the MacBook Air provides a thin and light experience while the MacBook Pro provides the optical drives along with larger storage capacities. This new device from apple is expected to be a Hybrid of both these models.

He also believes the device to be reaching the market by July or August of this year. The device is also expected to be of strong performance and easy for mobility as it will have the combined advantages of both the MacBook Air as well as the Mac Book Pro.

It is also expected that the Apple’s MacBook Pro 17inch’s production might get stopped as this model has sluggish sales in the market. This new product will help Apple to continue to maintain the product sales record with this line of devices.

As these days more and more smaller products are becoming popular so we may expect to see a smaller device, which might have a 13inch screen or an 11inch screen. The smaller screen mostly targets the general public while the larger screens are mostly preferred by professionals of design, music, print or video industries. It has also been proved by the sales figures that the smaller models are much more preferred over the larger models.

Earlier Apple has sold ten 13inch laptops for each 17inch laptop, which can also be said as 50,000 units of 17 inch model were sold while 500,000 units of 13 inch model were sold.
