Gurman: Apple to Launch New Macs Next Month, With More to Come Around May or June

According to Mark Gurman, Apple is preparing to launch at least one new Mac next month during an event rumored to be held on Tuesday, March 8, and that announcement will be followed by another round of new Macs around May or June.

Gurman said in his newsletter that Apple is getting ready for another round of Mac releases around May or June. Gurman thinks that the new Mac will be a high-end Mac mini and a refreshed low, and that it will be released next month.

Given that two of the oldest Apple Silicon Macs in the lineup today are the entry-level MacBook Pro and Mac mini, I'd guess that those models will be next to be upgraded.

The new MacBook Air and iMac will both feature the M2 Apple chip, along with the new high-end Mac mini and updated 13-inch MacBook Pro. There is a new Mac mini and a replacement for the iMac that will feature M1 Pro and M1 Max chip options.

A report from Ross Young, who last week said Apple's mini-LED iMac Pro could launch during the summer, is in line with the timelines set forth by Gurman.

Gurman said that the Mac Pro would come with versions of the ‌M1 Max‌ chip, with the first iteration featuring 20 CPU cores and 64 GPU cores. Use our detailed roundup to learn more about Apple's plan.
