details the new MacBook Air, the long-awaited release of which is to be held soonHe caused many disputes. Most were criticized Apple solution abandon all portsBut the headphone jack and USB Type-C. The latter, by virtue of its ability, should become a universal connector, is responsible not only for the connection of peripherals, but external displays, as well as charging. Many protested, as much as possible away from us MagSafe? But let's not get excited and look at possible solutions, which will apply Apple.
Probably the new MacBook Air will operate on battery power as the iPad
The iPads have never had MagSafe, but hardly anyone to speak on this occasion discontent. Flatbed a mobile device with a long battery life of the battery, which is normally not used during charging. Following this logic, it can be assumed that the mobility of the new MacBook Air will be sufficient to change the use of the script as to the iPad. Differences MacBook iPad and are in the form factor, and also used for various tasks in various environments. During the work with the iPad we hold it in your hands, so there is no need MagSafe. With MacBook Air is different, and even if we assume a phenomenal battery life, sometimes you still have to charge it, and here would come in handy MagSafe.
In addition, Lightning-cable iPad MagSafe cable is considerably shorter. If the new MacBook is not equipped with the MagSafe, then maybe Apple will complement its shorter cable, as in the iPad, which in itself will reduce the possibility of tripping over it during charging.
Perhaps Apple will place on the MagSafe cable
When the MagSafe does not fit into the housing, which prevents him to stay in somewhere on the cable adapter in the USB Type-C or near the charger? Adapter - not very elegant solution, moreover, it is easy to lose. MagSafe at the connection to charging too unlikely, so most likely it will take its place somewhere on the cable closer to the body of the laptop.
Probably the new MacBook Air will be equipped with inductive charging in Watch
A great idea that will appeal to most users, but there is one problem - as long as there is no inductive technology capable of providing sufficient current to charge the laptop. If any of the companies will be able to imagine something like this year, it will be Apple. But there is another difficulty - it is difficult to imagine such an accommodation charge. If you place it on the bottom, then notbuki will stand at an angle to the sides that are too thin, and the location in the lid of the display, such as the logo - it would be absurd.
