Apple Had M1 Mac Pro 'Ready to Go' Months Ago [Gurman]

Apple had an M1 Mac Pro 'ready to go' months ago; however, the company has purportedly decided to scrap that and jump straight to an M2 version of the powerful desktop, according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman.

Gurman shared his thoughts on the upcoming Mac Pro in an interview with Max Tech.

"They also had an M1 Mac Pro ready to go months ago they i guess they scrapped that to just wait for the M2 Pro version"


"Mac Pro, I think that will be announced end of year. They were going to announce it at WWDC but that didn't happen. I think they're going to announce it end of year and then release it next year in 2023 and then there'll be an iMac Pro at some point as well."

"I think they're going to call the chip in the Mac Pro the M2 Extreme. So what that is, it's the M2 Ultra, so the M1 Ultra but the M2 variation, right. Just like the Mac Studio, the base
is the is the Max and the high end is the Ultra, then the Mac Pro the base is the Ultra and the high end is the 2X Ultra, and I really don't think there's anything else you can call it other than M2 Extreme."

Gurman says he doesn't think the release on the new Mac Pro will be until spring 2023 or even later.
