Bloomberg’s Gurman: Apple to Launch M4 Macs Next Week

An M4 Mac launch is scheduled for next week, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. In a social media post on Tuesday, Gurman said Apple has scheduled an “M4 Mac launch” for next week, although he did not mention a specific day.

“Busy week for Apple next week: Apple Intelligence on Monday, then M4 Mac launch, then earnings results on Thursday,” he wrote.

In a separate social media post on Tuesday, Gurman said that Apple is inviting journalists and content creators to a hands-on experience in Los Angeles next Wednesday, which indicates that the new Macs will be announced before then.

While it looks like Apple will debut its first M4-powered Macs next week, we don’t know whether the announcements will be a part of an online event, like the one held on October 30 last year, or if the new Macs will be unveiled by press releases on the Apple Newsroom website only.

Gurman earlier this month said Apple will launch a new M4-powered version of its low-end 14-inch MacBook Pro, alongside higher-end 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips.

Gurman reports that we’ll also see refreshed desktop Macs, as Apple is planning to debut a revamped Mac mini with both M4 and M4 Pro chip options. Apple’s all-in-one desktop model, the iMac, will also receive an M4 upgrade.

While new Mac Studio and Mac Pro models with M4 chips are in development, power users will need to wait a bit longer, as Gurman says they are scheduled for later releases. The Mac Studio is expected to arrive around mid-2025, with the Mac Pro debuting towards the end of the year.

Earlier this month, A video allegedly showing the unboxing of a so-far unannounced 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M4 chip was uploaded to YouTube on Sunday by Russian channel Wylsacom.
