Apple could release a refreshed version of the 12-inch MacBook with a new Intel chip, according to the report.
One of the complaints about Apple's MacBook laptop is that the current processor is optimized for battery life, not for performance. A new model using a different Intel chip could make the device more attractive to a wider swath of users, possibly at the expense of battery life.
New versions of the MacBook Pro with faster Intel chips are also planned for launch.
