Lots of tech heads have already expressed their preferences on what the MacBook Air 2017 would be. Features like the Apple Touch ID and Pencil-enable Track Pad have been the expectations from various online tech blogs and forums.

In a report by Game N Guide, another feature that fans would most likely anticipate is the inclusion of virtual assistant SIRI in the MacBook Air 2017.
