The release schedule of the next Mac with M4, fully leaked

All Macs Will Be Updated to the M4 Chip, Now We Know When

The M4 chip was introduced a few months ago, but oddly enough, not available on any Mac. The chip is currently exclusive to the new iPad Pro and hasn’t made it to Apple computers, but that’s going to change very soon. Apple offers Macs with variants of the M2 and M3 chips that will be updated very soon.

According to Mark Gurman, who also leaked that the upcoming Mac mini will have an all-new, much smaller design, Apple plans to update its entire Mac lineup to the M4 chip

. He even ventured to give a release timeline for upcoming Macs that will be updated to include the M4 chip.

The M4 chip will reach the entire Mac lineup in the coming months

When will the M4 chip arrive in the Mac lineup?

Mark Gurman’s report in Bloomberg ensures that the The first Mac models to feature the M4 chip will do so later this yearThe rest of the range will have to wait until early 2025.

The updated mini is one of several new Macs arriving in the coming months. The company is preparing desktop versions of the iMac and MacBook Pro with M4 chips, also for this year. A MacBook Air is in development for the spring, and Mac Pro and Mac Studio models are slated for mid-next year.

According to this information, Apple to update Macs to include M4 chip Over the next 10 months:

Fall 2024: MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini.
Spring 2025: MacBook Air.
Mid-2025: Mac Studio and Mac Pro.

The dates match if we take into account the presentation date of the MacBook Pro with M3 chip and the MacBook Air with M3 chip. We should expect that When the M4 chip comes to Macs, it will do so with new versions, like the M4 Pro and M4 Max

for the most powerful models. The theoretical M4 Ultra would be delayed until mid-2025, as it is only present in Mac Studio and Mac Pro.

It seems that The only Mac that will update its design, in addition to including the M4 chip, will be the Mac mini. Apple plans to make it even smaller, which makes perfect sense since this is a Mac with a design still inherited from models powered by Intel chips. Apple Silicon chips are more efficient and take up less space, which helps make the Mac mini much smaller.

He iMac and MacBook have already updated their design recentlySo it’s unlikely that Apple will change it anytime soon. Where Yes, we might have news in the Mac Studio and Mac Pro. The Mac Studio is a slightly larger Mac mini, so it may well inherit the design of the new model. And the Mac Pro retains the design of the previous model with Intel chips, so it’s too big and could be made smaller.
