Apple’s high-end Mac Pro desktop computer is currently “on the back burner,” according to the latest word from Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman.
In his Power On newsletter today, Gurman said he heard that Apple has “largely written off” the Mac Pro, with the sentiment inside the company being that the Mac Studio represents the present and future of Apple’s pro desktop computing.
Apple is working on a high-end M5 Ultra chip, but Gurman said the company is currently “only” focused on a new Mac Studio with that chip, which leads him to believe that the Mac Pro “won’t be updated in 2026 in a significant way.”
It sounds like Gurman has not heard anything about a Mac Pro with an M5 Ultra chip being in the works, but he has not entirely ruled out the possibility.
In recent years, the Mac Pro has become redundant for many customers, as it is essentially a larger and more expensive Mac Studio with PCIe expansion slots. Apple last updated the Mac Pro with the M2 Ultra chip in June 2023, and Gurman’s wording suggests that the future of the computer may be in jeopardy.
