Apple promised three Mac-related product announcements this week, and it has delivered on two of them so far with the new iMac on Monday and the redesigned Mac mini on Tuesday. The final announcement today is expected to be updated 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips.
Below, we outline what to expect from the new MacBook Pro models.
14-Inch MacBook Pro With M4 Chip
A minimum of 16GB of RAM (up from 8GB for the current base model), as already seen with the new iMac and Mac mini
Three Thunderbolt 4 ports (up from two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the current base model)
Support for two external displays with up to 6K resolution, even when the lid is open
Space Black color option (previously exclusive to M3 Pro and M3 Max models)
No major design changes are expected
14-Inch and 16-Inch MacBook Pro With M4 Pro and M4 Max Chips
The already-announced M4 Pro chip has up to a 14-core CPU and up to a 20-core GPU
A minimum of 24GB of RAM is expected for 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with the M4 Pro chip
Thunderbolt 5 support is likely for up to 120 Gb/s data transfer speeds
No major design changes are expected
Both the new iMac and Mac mini were announced at 11 a.m. Eastern Time over the past two days, so expect the new MacBook Pro models to be unveiled then too.
