#When new mac release pro
Since the entry-level MacBook Pro and Mac mini are two of the oldest Apple Silicon models in production, these will probably be refreshed in March. The first new Macs should be announced in March, at Apple’s first major event of the year. A new Mac Pro with the equivalent of either two or four M1 Max chips.A larger iMac Pro, offering the M 1 Pro and M1 Max chip options.The rumored redesigned MacBook Air, featuring the M2 SoC.A 24-inch iMac, again with the M2 chip.Another new Mac mini, this time with an M2 chip.A 13-inch MacBook Pro with an M2 chip, replacing the 2020 model and priced just below Apple’s 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.What sources are fairly confident will come to market, though, include the following: That’s right, there could be even more in store for us. The Proposed Roadmap of Seven New Macs for 2022Īcross the remaining months of 2022, Gurman expects Apple to reveal at least seven new Macs. The question is, which new Mac computers will get the best treatment, and when can we anticipate Apple’s announcements of the seven new Macs. Last month, a Bloomberg report revealed that Apple may introduce new Apple Silicon Macs in June at WWDC 2022, with more Macs to come by the end of the year.In addition to increased usage of the M1 Pro and M1 Max, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman writes that he expects a new M2 chip and a super-powered version of the M1 Max to debut in 2022. While a release date is unclear at this point, our sources have told us that both machines are in advanced stages of development, so it’s likely that they will be announced sometime later this year. However, this year’s 13-inch MacBook might still be branded as “Pro.” Similar to the MacBook Air, the new 13-inch MacBook Pro won’t have versions with M2 Pro or other high-end chips. Interestingly, Apple has been internally considering dropping the “Pro” name from this machine, which would become just “MacBook.” That way, it would be rebranded as an entry-level MacBook, which would make sense since a report last year claimed that the redesigned MacBook Air will be “slightly more expensive.” Under the codename J493, the machine is based on the current 13-inch MacBook Pro, which means that it should retain the current design rather than getting the new one from the high-end versions. 13-inch MacBook ProĪt the same time, rumors also suggest that Apple will keep the entry-level 13-inch MacBook Pro around for longer.ĩto5Mac’s sources confirm that the 13-inch MacBook Pro will also get a new model with the M2 chip. Of course, Apple will eventually introduce high-end versions of the new M2 chip, such as the M2 Pro (which will power one of the new Mac mini models).Īpple currently has M2 Pro, Max, and Ultra in the works, the latter being a 24-core CPU. It’s worth noting that the new M2 chip comes to replace the current entry-level M1, not the high-end M1 Pro, M1 Max, and M1 Ultra versions – so it won’t necessarily perform better than these premium chips. Although it has an eight-core CPU just like M1, M2 will bring a more powerful 10-core GPU. As detailed in our article about the new Mac mini, the M2 chip (internally known as “Staten”) is based on the A15 chip. While analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes that the new MacBook Air will have an updated M1 chip, our reliable sources have told us that the machine is being developed with the new M2 chip.Ĭodenamed J413, the next generation MacBook Air is expected to be released in a single version featuring M2. Rumors about the next-generation MacBook Air have been floating around the web for quite some time now, as multiple reports hint at a completely redesigned laptop. 9to5Mac has learned from sources that there are new MacBooks with the M2 chip coming later this year. It has been almost two years since Apple announced the transition from Intel Macs to Apple Silicon, and while there are still two Intel-powered Macs in the lineup, the company is already working on the next wave of Macs with the new M2 chip.
