In June of this year, sources close to Apple's supply chain stated that the new 12-inch MacBook Air would begin mass production in the third quarter of 2014.

Today the situation has changed dramatically, following the revelation that the manufacturing of this new Mac laptop is experiencing difficulties in balancing performance and versatility . This challenge is reportedly forcing the company to use an Intel Broadwell 14-nanometer processor.

The new MacBook Air will be released in 2015.

It should be noted that the company has been experiencing significant problems in the production of its new products in recent months.

These events have caused much unrest among its followers, who are eager to receive the new Apple devices as soon as possible.

However, despite this, the manufacturing of the new MacBook adds to the list of difficulties that Apple has been facing since the beginning of the year. Apparently, the 14nm Intel chips won't be shipped until February 2015.

This is a problem that Apple has had to deal with, due to the constant delays they have experienced in the production of the aforementioned chip.

As previously reported , Apple's new hybrid computer is expected to feature an ultra-thin design with a 12-inch Retina display . It's also rumored to include a redesigned trackpad, lacking the traditional mechanical button. Furthermore, it will reportedly be without its usual internal fans and will integrate a battery that is said to last significantly longer.

Hopefully , Apple will resolve all the unforeseen issues they've been experiencing as soon as possible. It's unusual for them to postpone their regular releases due to problems like these.
