The Mac Pro is one of the few Intel-based computers still in Apple’s commercial offering.. The company, announcing the transition to its own processors in 2020, counted on its completion for a period of about two years. Therefore, by the end of this year, the process should have been completed. However, everything indicates that it will take a little longer. However, the reward will be an even more advanced machine than expected.

Apple, in particular, will work on new Mac Pro with M2 Ultra processors, and will be available in configurations with 24 CPU cores, 76 graphics cores, and at least 192 GB of RAM. This, according to Mark Gurman of Bloombergwho has an impeccable reputation when it comes to promoting the new plans and products of the Cupertino company.

Same they worked on the M2 Extreme chip for the Mac Pro, with configurations of 48 CPU cores and 152 graphics cores. But the plans were put on hold by Apple. According to the report BloombergThe reasons are related to the high cost of production and the complexity of the production process.

Another factor that may have influenced the decision is the high prices that professional teams would achieve with this theoretical M2 Extreme. At the moment, the cheapest version of Mac Studio with the M1 Ultra processor costs $4,000 or €4,629. According to Gurman, a Mac Pro with a theoretical M2 Extreme configuration is likely “worth more than $10,000 or euros.” This would make it an overpriced niche product with such high development costs and engineering resources that it wouldn’t be worth it to Apple.

New Mac Minis, new monitors, new MacBook Pros, and even a new iMac Pro.

In addition to updating Mac Pro with Apple M2 Ultra chips, the company is working on a new Mac Mini with M2 processor and M2 Pro. Also on new external monitors, Gurman said, including an upgrade to Pro Display XDR for at least $5,000 or €5,500. But this may happen after the Mac Pro as its development stage is not as advanced.

Apple will also be working on a new iMac Pro, although delays are expected. This professional hardware version with Intel processors has been discontinued in March 2021.

Finally, Apple is working on new professional laptops. In particular, it applies to 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro update with M2 Pro and M2 Max chips this was expected by many by the end of this 2022, but it will finally see the light of day sometime next year.
