Waarom geen verlichte toetsen voor MacBook Air?

Dit is dus niet de nieuwe MacBook Air

De nieuwe MacBook Air beschikt niet over een verlicht toetsenbord. Verwonderlijk, want bij zijn voorganger zaten wel lampjes achter de toetsen. Wat zijn Apple’s beweegredenen?

Apple Europa
Afgelopen vrijdag was ik op bezoek bij Apple om de nieuwe MacBook Air te bewonderen. Tijdens mijn ‘speelsessie’ stond een serieus kijkende meneer van Apple Europa paraat om prangende vragen te beantwoorden. Daar maakte ik natuurlijk dankbaar gebruik van.

Twee redenen
De beste man van Apple Europa wist mij te vertellen waarom de MacBook Air geen verlicht toetsenbord heeft. Allereerst vanwege kostenbesparing. Met verkoopprijzen vanaf € 999 kan er geen verlicht toetsenbord vanaf. Daarnaast hebben ook de afmetingen van de MacBook Air effect gehad op het besluit. In de dunne behuizing van de Air is geen ruimte voor toetsenbordverlichting.

Toetsenbordverlichting is vanaf nu alleen is voorbehouden aan de MacBook Pro. De witte MacBook heeft de toetslichtjes nooit gehad, en de MacBook Air heeft er nu dus afscheid van genomen.

Ga jij de verlichte toetsen missen?

Toch kun je in de Apple Store tijdens de configuratie alleen voor verlichte toetsenborden kiezen…
