In a tweet analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says that Apple might launch a very redesigned MacBook Professional subsequent 12 months. And I believe “might” is the important thing phrase right here.
From the tweet: So far as I do know, Apple attributes the numerous decline in MacBook shipments in 2023 primarily to the restricted M2 computing energy improve. I imagine for this reason Apple might want to launch the M3 sequence MacBook Professional even when its manufacturing quantity continues to be low somewhat than proceed to ship the M2 sequence MacBook Professional. Theoretically, the M3 ought to provide a extra vital increase in computing energy.
Nevertheless, if even the M3 can’t increase MacBook shipments, I believe the probability of introducing the all-new design MacBook Professional in 2025 might improve. Moreover, Apple may additionally take into account (however hasn’t determined but) introducing a extra inexpensive MacBook mannequin to spice up shipments, with a goal of 8-10+ million models per 12 months.
The issue with Kuo’s tweet is that he doesn’t say what that redesign may entail. The Sellers Analysis Group (that’s me) isn’t betting on a significant redesign, however I’d to see a MacBook Professional incorporate, amongst different issues, Face ID and a mobile possibility.
There have been rumors of a “foldable” Mac laptop computer, however I don’t assume such a tool will see the sunshine of day. At the least within the subsequent three years.
