Upgraded MacBook Pro, Redesigned Mac Mini, And iMac With M4 Chip Now Expected To Launch Later “This Year”
Apple introduced the new OLED iPad Pro with an M4 chip earlier this year, which was a big surprise as the device was supposed to get an M3 chip. The company is now planning to upgrade its entire Mac lineup, including the MacBook Pro and redesigned Mac mini with various versions of the M4 chip, and the devices are reported to be on track to launch later this year. If you are waiting for your next upgrade, a prominent analyst has shared details on the machines and when you can expect them.
Apple's plans to launch the M4 versions of the MacBook Pro, iMac, and redesigned Mac mini possibly shifted from this month to later "this year"
Mark Gurman previously claimed that Apple will host an event in October, which will be oriented toward the company's new Mac upgrades. We are not expecting any major changes in terms of design for the MacBook Pro models, but the Mac mini could get significantly smaller. We have to take note that the analyst previously suggested that the new upgrades could arrive "in the coming weeks," hinting at the October launch. In a new report, Gurman has shifted the approach to "this year," which means that the devices could see a bit more delay than in earlier speculations.

It is still worth noting that the launch time frame for the new M4 version of the MacBook Pro, Mac mini, and iMac is set for this year, which means that the machines will see daylight before the year ends. Last year, Apple upgraded the MacBook Pro models and iMac lineup on October 30, which gives us a rough estimate of when the company could release the M4 upgrade. What you should expect is the company's upgrades for some of its Macs, including the new redesigned Mac mini.
The M4 chip will be a major upgrade for all the Macs, as the chip showed impressive performance earlier this year when it launched with the OLED iPad Pro.
