Ever since Apple released its own silicon, creators have salivated at the thought of what kinds of performance could be expected from the company's highest-end machine, the Mac Pro. Today we found out, and it wasn't necessarily the expected answer.
Alongside a move to Apple silicon and a big performance bump, Apple's new Mac Pro has also undergone a dramatic price reduction, at least when comparing the top-end configurations.
After teasing, rumors, and a long wait, Apple's flagship desktop computer series, the Mac Pro, has joined the Apple silicon family in the form of a brand-new, totally redesigned Mac Pro, powered by Apple's new M2 Ultra chip.
Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) commences on Monday, June 5, at 10 AM PT. PetaPixel will be on the ground for the keynote and this list is what the Silicon Valley giant is most likely to release.
The Apple silicon-powered Mac Pro that was promised last year is finally coming in late spring or early summer.
In a Geekbench 5 result that surfaced earlier this week, the new 13-inch M2 Macbook Pro achieved a score of 8,928, significantly better than the baseline Mac Pro with an 8-core Intel Xeon W processor that has a score of 8,027.
Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) kicks off on Monday, June 6 at 10 AM PT and while the keynote usually centers around software, there is reason to believe some hardware will also make an appearance.
While the M1 Ultra is the last M1 chip Apple is making, it certainly isn't going to be the company's last ever. A new report alleges multiple new chips in the pipeline as well as a refresh of the Pro Display XDR.
Apple has added three new graphics card modules for the Mac Pro that it says are designed to deliver a large performance boost to the computer's graphics horsepower specifically in GPU-heavy applications.
Even though Apple's new M1 computers are still quite new, the company is reportedly poised to release even newer versions of both its laptop and desktop lines that feature new processors, significantly upgraded specifications, new designs, and more connectivity starting as early as this summer.
Over the weekend, MacRumors noticed that Apple had placed a "While supplies last" tag on the iMac Pro product page and removed custom configurations, a sign that a product is about to be discontinued. A day later, Apple confirmed it: the iMac Pro is on its way out.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman is a well-respected journalist who has a very strong record when it comes to rumors, and his latest promises the return of a port that photographers have been yearning to see: the SD card slot is coming back to the MacBook Pro.
Late last week, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman published multiple Apple rumor stories that reveal some of the computing giant's biggest decisions for its coming hardware. While many Apple rumors are shots in the dark, Gurman has a pretty good history of getting things right.
Apple quietly released two updates to its product line today. First and foremost, they've added a more powerful GPU option to the high-end 16-inch MacBook Pro; secondly, they've released a new SSD upgrade kit for owners of the new Mac Pro tower.
YouTuber Tyler Stalman recently got his hands on a review unit of both the Mac Pro and the Pro Display XDR, and while many tech YouTubers have reviewed these extreme (and extremely expensive) Apple products, he's the first we've seen who's evaluated them from the perspective of a professional photographer.
The Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR officially went on sale today, allowing us to answer the question that has been on everybody's mind ever since Apple's desktop powerhouse was announced: how much will it cost to buy a fully spec this monster out? The answer: a cool $52,600.
