Apple is rumored to be working on Apple Silicon M2 Pro Mac mini, 14-inch MacBook Pro, and 16-inch MacBook Pro models — and also a Mac Pro tower equipped with a M2 Ultra and “M2 Extreme” chips.
Apple’s WWDC keynote featured the unveiling of the M2 chip generation of Apple Silicon, as well as new models of the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro using the chip. While the Mac mini was included in the first wave of M1 devices, its absence from M2 may not last too long.
The product roadmap for M2 Macs will include new Mac mini models sporting the latest generation of chip, according to Mark Gurman’s “Power On” newsletter for Bloomberg. For the Mac mini, it will apparently be offered with M2 and M2 Pro chips, while the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro will have M2 Pro and M2 Max variants available.
The long-expected Mac Pro tower will also benefit from the new generation, including a version of the M2 Ultra and a new “M2 Extreme” chip option.
Following on from the M2 range, Gurman believes Apple will continue the cycle with M2, which will update the 13-inch MacBook Air once again, as well as introduce a 15-inch variant. A new iMac is also expected for M3, as well as an “early development” 12-inch notebook.

Great, now all I need is a lower priced 30” Apple display to pair with it. In what world should your screen cost substantially more than your computer?
What about the 24” iMac? I hope Apple offers an M2 Pro in that too.
It makes sense that the 12” and 13.6” MBA would have M2, 15” MacBook or MacBook Studio would have 1 fan, replace 13.3” MBP, and offer M2 and M2 Pro, and Mac Mini would offer M2 and M2 Pro, and of course, Mac Studio offer Max and Ultra. And then, or course, Mac Pro on top of all that. Seems like that is the direction the wind is blowing.
I need that 14inch m2 MacBook Pro this fall! Not next year!!!
There’s a really big problem with all these new variations of M2: we can’t even get M1 Mac Studio w/ M1 Ultra until September, and the backlog on M1 Max laptops is pretty damned long too. If these M2’s are just around the corner – I’ve waited this long, I’ll wait longer…as might other Mac users. I believe that the reason the Mac Pro M was not introduced this year was out of fear of cannibalizing M1 Mac Studio and other high-end Mac devices. Byte the bullet Apple, just write off the delayed M1 units and start delivering the M2 thingies. If you can just drop in a new M2 into the existing MacBook Pro 13”, you should be able to do the same with all other variants.
