After a flurry of Apple releases that saw a newApple TV 4K , M2 iPad Pros,10th - gen iPad , iOS 16.1 , andmacOS Venturain the span of a week , we were expecting Modern Macs to arrive any day now . Now it looks like we might demand to wait a lot longer .
concord toMark Gurman of Bloomberg , Apple ’s next round of M2 - establish Macs now wo n’t launch until 2023 , belike at a March event . He reports that Apple is “ calculate to introduce the upgraded models — including M2 - base versions of the 14 - inch and 16 - inch MacBook Pros — in the first quartern of calendar 2023 . ”
Apple has used its spring result to plunge new Macs in recent year — last March realise the introduction of theMac Studio , and the late April bring the24 - column inch iMac . However , if no new Macs arrive in November , it would be the first Mac - less gloam since 2017 :
Gurman says the new Macs will be released alongside the launch of macOS Ventura 13.3 . Apple only just release the first genus Beta ofmacOS Ventura 13.1last week , which we assumed would debut on the new Macs . But while that outlet will likely come in November with Apple ’s new Freeform app , Gurman does n’t think new Macs will companion it .
Apple cover a record $ 11.5 billion in Mac sale during its fiscal 4th twenty-five percent , but it warn that class - over - year growth likely would n’t be as high for the Mac in the all - important vacation quarter .
During its fourth - quarter conference call , Tim Cook said Apple was “ approach[ing ] the holiday season with our product lineup hardening , ” which could intend that it ’s done releasing new intersection . However , since the rumored merchandise are little more than M2 updates to the14- and 16 - inch MacBook Proand theMac mini , Cook could also be referring to the actual batting order .
At any rate , we ’ll be keeping our eye peeled over the next few Tuesdays just in font .
