So if the company doesn’t unveil a new iMac Pro or Mac Pro now, this could be because it will wait a few months more. Once again, Gurman notes that Apple is readying the next batch of Macs for the following months, most likely May and June. Those are exactly the specifications of the M2 chip I detailed last year.Īpple has been testing this new chip on machines running macOS 12.3 (which should be released in the next week or two and run on the new Macs) and a future macOS 12.4, as well as macOS 13, which will be previewed in June at WWDC 2022.”

“I’m told from a developer source that Apple has been testing multiple Macs with a new chip in recent weeks that includes an eight-core CPU (four efficiency cores and four high-performance cores) and 10 GPU cores. In addition, Bloomberg’s journalist thinks Apple will launch an M2 or M1 Pro Mac mini this Tuesday, as he’s told this product is “ready to go.” A monitor would also explain the “peek” spelling.”Īlthough Gurman doesn’t say it’s the same product, it will be interesting to see if the company previews its first external monitor since the Pro Display XDR launch in 2019. Apple has updated the little desktop Mac Mini, and if you were thinking about buying a new MacBook or iMac, you might think a little about grabbing this instead. Apple’s last in-house monitor came in 2019 alongside the Intel Mac Pro. I’m told Apple actually completed work on it months ago, and the device was due to launch soon after last year’s MacBook Pro. “I also wouldn’t rule out Apple previewing its next-generation external display. Now, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman believes the company could be giving its users a peek of another product, a next-generation external display that Apple “completed work on it months ago.” The journalist writes: This product has been speculated for a few months from now, as we previously reported that Apple was readying an external monitor with the A13 Bionic inside of it. You can configure it with up to 1TB of storage. It features the same M1 chip as the more expensive option, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD. On Friday, 9to5Mac exclusively reported that Apple is working on a new Studio Display with a 7K resolution. The Mac mini we’re testing is the entry-level 700 variant. As we’re almost 48 hours away from the first Apple event of the year, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman shares in his Power On newsletter that, alongside the iPhone SE 3 and iPad Air, the Cupertino company could be ready to launch a new Mac mini as well as preview a new external display.
