New MacBook Pro M2 models may arrive early next year according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who recently released a employment (Opens in a new tab) The newsletter discusses the long-rumored MacBook Pro M2 laptops.
According to the Gorman report, Apple originally planned to release its new premium laptops in late 2022, As claimed earlier this year. However, due to internal delays, laptops have been hit by early 2023. Aside from packing the Apple M2 chip, Gurman claims the new MacBook Pro won’t see any significant redesign. This would be similar to how the new iPad Pro 2022 is the same device as its predecessor, only with a faster chip.
It is likely that these new laptops, which will replace the MacBook Pro 2021 14-inch And the MacBook Pro 2021 16-inch, at Apple’s spring product launch event, which usually takes place in March each year. That would also fit with the release of major updates for macOS Ventura (13.3) and iOS 16 (16.3), which is set to debut in February or March, according to Gorman.
The MacBook Pros released in 2021 mark a significant redesign from previous models. Because of this, it’s not surprising that these potential 2023 iterations will retain the basic shape of the existing models. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing because it probably means we’ll get laptops with an SD card reader, an HDMI port, and MagSafe charging. However, it could also mean that the new MacBook Pro will likely keep the controversial notch in the screen.
In addition to his claims about a new MacBook Pro in early 2023, Gurman also said that a new Mac Pro is on the way. Gurman noted that rumors of a Mac Pro with a “M2 Extreme” chip (a more powerful version of the M1 Ultra are in Apple Mac Studio) due to complexity and cost concerns. Gurman claims a Mac Pro with the M2 Ultra will arrive in 2023, though he didn’t narrow it down.
If this rumor spreads, 2023 could be a huge year for Mac fans. But given the nature of these reports, it’s best to treat them with a healthy dose of skepticism until we hear official word from Apple.
