Apple’s transition away from Intel processors and to its own Apple Silicon chips has been going on since 2020, but this year could be when the process really goes into overdrive. That’s because we could see up to seven new Macs in 2022, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman has claimed, marking the biggest overhaul of Apple’s computers in years.
This year, we can expect the M1 Pro and M1 Max to stick around, the M2 chip to enter the fray, and what Gurman terms “superpowered versions of the M1 Max” to make an appearance. That means no new M1 Macs in 2022, as the M2 is set to take its place.When will these new Macs launch? Despite having so many Macs on its menu, rumors suggest Apple will only unveil one or two new computers at its next event, which may be held on March 8.
The iMac Pro could be next. It’s approaching a year since the 24-inch iMac was updated, and there’s been no sign of a refresh for its high-end sibling in all that time. Rumors are gathering pace that the iMac Pro is coming soon, though, so keep your eyes peeled.
