Apple looks set to unveil recent MacBook Pro models on Tuesday, January 17.
Multiple reports point to the tech giant making an announcement, with Bloomberg’s often reliable Mark Gurman suggesting the M2 chip will finally be coming to Apple’s 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops.
Gurman first reported in October that Apple was preparing recent MacBook Pros with M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, though at the moment the discharge date wasn’t known. Apple launched the M2 chip in June 2022 and the 13-inch model is currently the one MacBook Pro laptop that has it. The one other Apple laptop with the M2 chip is the 2022 MacBook Air.
Gurman said that Apple will hold press briefings “later this week,” adding that embargoes will lift on Monday, January 23, allowing reviewers to share their first thoughts on the brand new products.
Citing different sources, other media outlets — Mac Rumors and 9to5Mac amongst them — have also reported Apple’s plan to make an announcement on Tuesday, via the Newsroom section on its website. If it happens, we propose checking Apple’s YouTube channel, too, where it might drop recent videos highlighting its latest MacBook Pro models.
Together with a more powerful chipset, the brand new MacBook Pros often is the first in the road to feature Wi-Fi 6E, which, if you could have a compatible router, will lead to higher Wi-Fi performance.
To be clear, tomorrow’s reported unveiling won’t involve the touchscreen MacBooks that Apple is rumored to be working on. In actual fact, the physical design of the brand new MacBook Pros will likely be similar to their predecessors.
A report just a couple of days ago suggested Apple might unveil the brand new M2 models at its Worldwide Developers Conference event in June, but today’s development suggests something will occur tomorrow. If it does, we’ll you’ll want to share the news on Digital Trends.
If the announcement does happen this week, it should mark Apple’s first product release of 2023.
