The new Apple MacBook Air 2020 was supposed to deal with two major issues of the popular subnotebook by implementing a new keyboard and the choice of more powerful quad-core processors. But the performance and the cooling system is still a major problem, but it looks like Apple does not want to change that.

Because they know they can do whatever they want and their clients are clueless.
You're welcome.
Because they want to keep it inferior to the 13" Pro.
These days, I think that a MBA doesn't make any sense. An iPad is just as capable (if not more) and more pleasant to use for basic tasks.
Some people prefer a smaller, lightweight laptop with the keyboard permanently attached and a full operating system rather than rely on iOS, that's why the MacBook Air still makes sense. Wouldn't kill Apple to throw more power at it and sort the cooling out though. I'm always pleasantly surprised to see how many pre-2017 MB Airs are still in use by a variety of people. They're powerful enough for most things and still have a great keyboard. I used to use my 2014 MBA for multi track recording and it never got warm, for example.
Yeah, I beefed up the Air 2020 $$$ and still have problems with the fan and loss of power with no apps running and 2 tabs open. Limited even with the extras I threw in. Rather disappointed with this.
I am planning to buy MacBook Air 2020 i3 dual core Model so I just want to know does it have overheating issue ?
