Apple has another potential event in store with powerful M4 Macs and cheaper iPads inbound.
Apple recently held its yearly iPhone event, where it introduced the world to the iPhone 16. Its next important product family, the Mac lineup, is also slated for an update sometime this fall. According to Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, Apple is planning to introduce its M4 Macs soon at another dedicated hardware event.
We already have the M4 Apple silicon in the iPad Pro, where it has impressed with blisteringly fast single-core performance and impressive multi-core chops. The MacBook Pro, Apple’s most popular Mac, is next in line to get these powerful chips. First, we should see a more entry-level M4 14-inch MacBook Pro. There should also be a higher-spec MacBook Pro model in both 14-inch and 16-inch form factors, with the top M4 chips inside. These were previously called the M3 Pro and M3 Max, so we may likely see the same for the M4 Apple silicon.
The amount of included RAM will also be of interest on the lower-spec models.
