Apple presented last week the M1 Ultra processor, which is also located in most part of the family of chips M1 is the latest model of the same that the company will develop, which paves the way for the arrival of the next generation of Apple Silicon, which includes new Mac computers and screens.

By the middle of the year, Apple will launch two or three new Mac computers, and new updates to the family (MacBook Air, Mac mini, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and 24-inch iMac) for release later this year or even next year.

Expert opinion

These teams would begin to arrive with the second generation of Apple’s own processors, information shared by Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman, who cites sources familiar with these plans, which also includes the recovery of Mac Pro.

The analysis indicates that the company has been working on a new Mac Pro with features that “double the performance of the M1 Ultra.” And despite the fact that it could integrate a chip from the M1 family, he believes that Apple is “holding out” for the arrival of the most powerful M2 for its launch.

The company’s plans also include a new Display Pro XDR monitor, currently in development, that could push resolution up to 7K and feature an A-series processor that enables features like Centered Framing or Siri local rendering.

What’s coming?

In general terms, and until the transition to M2 is completed by the end of 2023, the analyst believes that Apple will launch the following products: on the one hand, for professional users, MacBook Pro (14 and 16 inches) with M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, iMac Pro with M2 Pro and M2 Max, Mac Studio with M2 Max and M2 Ultra, Mac Pro with M2 Ultra and M2 Extreme, and Apple Pro Display 7K.

On the other hand, for consumers, MacBook Air with M2 processor, MacBook Pro (13”) with M2, Mac mini with M2 and M2 Pro, iMac with M2 and Apple Studio Display.

A-series chips in iPhone
On the other hand, and regarding iPhone devices, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 family will consist of four models and will arrive in the second half of this year, with the following names: iPhone 14 (6, 1″), iPhone 14 Max (6.7″), iPhone 14 Pro (6.1″), and iPhone 14 Pro Max (6.7″).

The analyst states, in a post, shared on Twitter, that only the Pro models will integrate the A16 processor, while the other two devices will use the A15. He also indicates that all four will have at least 6GB of RAM among their features, but some models will use LPDDR5 (14 Pro and 14 Pro Max) while others will opt for LPDDR 4X (14 and 14 Max).
