Apple’s WWDC 2022 event is over, and while a lot of exciting products made an appearance, the Mac Pro was not one of them. Why did Apple skip the Mac Pro?
Apple’s WWDC 2022 has now come and gone, bringing with it a ton of exciting announcements — but the release of a new Mac Pro was not one of them. Of all the no-shows at WWDC this year, the missing Mac Pro felt like the biggest disappointment. Considering that the last Mac Pro was released in 2019 and runs on an Intel processor, why is Apple still not releasing a new model powered by its own silicon? Well, the answer might not be as obvious as you might think. It has been almost two years since Apple began the transition away from Intel toward using its own chips. Starting with the M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, and finally, M1 Ultra, the company has now gone on to announce the upcoming release of the M2 chip. Having entered the next generation of M-series chips, it certainly feels like Apple just straight-up forgot about its most powerful desktop Mac.
