Now that Apple has switched to Apple Silicon chips, it has started mounting everything together - the CPU, the GPU, the memory - into a single system-on-a-chip (SoC) unit. Will this slimline design remain with the iMac Pro? We think there is a good chance.
#NEW MAC PRO RELEASE DATE 2016 PRO#
However, given some of the other developments, most notably relating to performance (detailed below), we think the iMac Pro name is most likely - and so bright colors are probably a non-starter.Ī colorful outlook was not the only makeover the iMac got in April - it was also made radically thinner. It would simply be an extension of the existing model, so maintaining the color continuity would make sense. However, if Apple drops the Pro moniker and makes the larger iMac a variant of the 24-inch model, we could see the colors sticking. A pro-grade machine clad in bright pink or yellow shades would likely feel out of place. Apple’s Pro devices usually come in muted, “professional” colors like gray and silver.
If it brings back the iMac Pro nomenclature, then we would consider it unlikely.
Will the high-end iMac get the same treatment? As with the price, that likely depends on how Apple positions it. The new iMac is kitted out in a range of snazzy colors, from pinks to yellows to blues, giving it a playful vibe that Apple hopes will make it down-to-earth and approachable, just like its G3 inspiration. When Apple redesigned the iMac in April 2021, it brought back the classic, colorful look of the iMac G3 from 1998. If it is a true successor to the iMac Pro, however, don’t be surprised if it hovers somewhere around the $4,999 Apple used to charge for that device. If it is just a larger version of the current 24-inch iMac, a starting price of $1,799 (the current cost of the 27-inch iMac) would be expected. There was no time for anything else to launch in 2021, but a spring 2022 launch date for the iMac Pro is not out of the question.Īs for the price, we think that hinges on what form the high-end iMac takes. Now that the MacBook Pro 14 and updated MacBook Pro 16 laptops have been released, that potentially clears the way for Apple to put its focus back on the iMac Pro. While we do not know how far along the larger model was, putting it on hold like that undoubtedly stymied its development and production. For one thing, we know Apple delayed the larger model to get the 24-inch iMac ready for its April 2021 launch date. Price and release dateĪpple has been coy about when the top-end iMac will hit the shelves, but we can make some inferences based on other product news and rumors. Regardless of what the name ends up being, here’s everything we know about the next pro-level iMac. But considering Apple’s other product lines, it makes sense to offer an iMac Pro that offers a greater level of performance than the 24-inch iMac. It could be that Apple decides to leave the iMac Pro dead and buried and instead just offer a more powerful all-in-one under the regular iMac branding.

“Apple last updated its 13in and 15in MacBook Pro laptops in March and May of 2015 respectively, so it can’t be long till the new line comes out – we expect the new MacBook to come out on 13 June during WWDC event.” “When will the next MacBook Pro come out?” Karen Haslam reports for Macworld.
