Apple MacBook Pro: here's why you have to wait for the 2026 model!
Are you considering going for MacBook Pro M4 ? Well, the latest rumors may lead you to postpone this purchase until much later. Indeed, recent statements from Mark Gurman announce big changes for the generation equipped with M6 chips.
In his latest Power On newsletter, the journalist specializing in the world of Apple discusses what “the MacBook Pro probably won't get a makeover until 2026”. A discrepancy with its previous predictions, which leaned towards a release in 2025.
This refresh would firstly concern the chassis, and would result in a “slimmer design” than the latest MacBook Pros. The opportunity to rejuvenate the build of Apple's professional computers, unchanged since the M1 Pro version and M1 Max, released in 2021.
This would allow us to follow the trend of finesse among the Apple firm, introduced this year with the iPad Pro M4 and expected for the start of the 2025 school year with theiPhone 17 Air.
The second development would also come from Apple's latest high-end tablets: the screen. Just like the latest iPad Pros, the Mini-LED panel on the MacBook Pros would be replaced by Oled. The opportunity to have an even more faithful screen, notably with the vibrant colors and deep blacks offered by this technology.
In addition to these two developments, Mark Gurman also talked about performance. According to him, the M6 chips would be engraved in 2 nanometers, which would result in a significant boost performance and better energy efficiency (and therefore autonomy).
