Since last year, there have been comparisons between Apple MacBook Air and Lenovo Yoga 900. During the battles between the two of the best laptop brands, it was Lenovo Yoga 900 that prevailed. But it was rumored that Apple will release MacBook Air 2016 this October.

Apple recently released iPhone7 and Apple Watch Series 2. But there were speculations around the web that there were still products that is yet to be release by the company. One of those is MacBook Air 2016.

According to MacRumors, Apple is working on redesigning the MacBook Air model and rumors have it that the unit could be ready for launching in October.

If the rumors are true, it would be interesting to compare Apple MacBook Air 2016 with the Lenovo Yoga 900.

In terms of graphics, MacBook Air 2016 is rumored to use Intel GPU instead of the usual AMD, per Mobile & Apps. If this would become a reality, then MacBook Air 2016 will be a better choice as Intel GPU is much more powerful than Iris Graphic 540 of Lenovo Yoga 900. 

In terms of processor, MacBook Air 2016 is rumored to employ an Intel Skylake processor. This is also better to Yoga 900's 6th-gen Intel Core i7 processor.

According to Game N Guide, Yoga 900 beat the current model of MacBook Air in terms of display resolution. Yoga 900 is using a 3200x1800 QHD+ display resolution while MacBook Air has 1440x900 resolution. However, International Business Times said that the MacBook Air 2016 will have 5k display resolution technology with equally large ppi.

If the rumors about the upcoming newer model of Apple MacBook Air is true, then it would surpass Lenovo Yoga 900 in terms of features and specs.

When this happens, will Lenovo also improve the current features of its Yoga 900 laptop models?
