Supply chain news! Apple M4 MacBook Pro may be released by the end of 2024

[ Gearbest Technology News]According to foreign media reports, Apple may plan to upgrade the MacBook Pro series of computers to M4 chips before the end of 2024. This news is speculated based on the production plan of OLED screens. So far, the M4 chip has only been used in one product, and that is the latest iPad Pro series. But if analysts’ predictions are accurate, MacBook Pro will soon use this chip.

Recently, analyst Ross Young mentioned that he recently checked the supply chain information and found that the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro will usher in new versions, and their screens are expected to start production in the third quarter of 2024. If this news is correct, then we can probably see the release of the new MacBook Pro in the fourth quarter of 2024, just in time for the year-end shopping season.

However, Ross Young’s statement is somewhat different from that of another well-known analyst Mark Gurman. Gurman said in April that the M4 chip MacBook Pro might not be released at the end of 2024, but would have to wait until early 2025.

In addition to MacBook Pro, everyone also expects that the 24-inch iMac and entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro will also be updated with M4 chips.

As for the Mac mini, Gurman believes that the M4 and M4 Pro versions may be launched between the end of 2024 and early 2025. Updates to MacBook Air, Mac Studio and Mac Pro may have to wait until 2025.
