  "textContent": "Apple today added the MacBook Air (13-inch, 2017) to its \"vintage\" products list, meaning the device is now only eligible for repairs at Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers if parts remain available.\n\n\nThe MacBook Air (13-inch, 2017) was the final MacBook Air model released before Apple redesigned the laptop and gave it a Retina display in 2018.\n\nApple also added all iPad mini 4 and Apple TV (32GB) configurations to its \"obsolete\" products list, meaning those devices are no longer eligible for service whatsoever.\n\niPad mini 4 launched in 2015, and it was discontinued in 2019.\n\nApple TV HD was first released in 2015 and discontinued in October 2022, when the third-generation Apple TV 4K launched. However, only Apple TV HD units with 32GB of storage are considered obsolete for now.\n\nA \"vintage\" device was last distributed by Apple for sale more than five years ago, while for \"obsolete\" that timeframe rises to seven years.\n\nRelated Roundups: Apple TV, iPad mini, MacBook Air\n\nTag: Vintage and Obsolete Apple Products\n\nBuyer's Guide: Apple TV (Don't Buy), iPad Mini (Caution), MacBook Air (Buy Now)\n\nRelated Forums: Apple TV and Home Theater, iPad, MacBook Air\n\n\nThis article, \"Apple Says Three More Products Are Now 'Vintage' or 'Obsolete'\" first appeared on MacRumors.com\n\nDiscuss this article in our forums\n\n",
