NEW: Apple has discontinued the Mac Pro and has removed it from its website. They had been planning to do so for a while now.

Apple has been telegraphing this the last month: 1) Mac Pros going out of stock at retail stores and online 2) Discontinuing the Pro Display XDR and naming of new Studio Display 3) Announcing it'll build Mac minis in Houston I had also written in December this was happening.

I wonder if we'll see some sort of expansion of Mac Studio now? Honestly even the Mac Studio is in a weird place... I believe the M5 Max MBP outperforms it now iirc.

RIP Mac Pro Mac Studio is better anyway, larger towers are a remanent of a time when they were required for high performance. For Apple, that hasn't been a requirement for 5 years. Can't wait for the updated Mac Studio, whenever that may be.

@markgurman What you wrote: “That suggests the Mac Pro won't be updated in 2026 in a significant way.” To me, this reads as “right either way.” No update? Right. New chip? Not significant. Still right. I just feel like you don't have to always tell us you were first! Sorry to be …

This is so sad... Mac Pro has been neglected by Apple many times over. I know it's a lower volume product these days but I was really hoping for a true Apple Silicon revamp with a special chip and special expansion capabilities for those who truly need it.

There really was no reason for the Apple Silicon Mac Pro to exist. The Mac Pro was made for expansion. And with expansion extremely limited for Apple Silicon Mac's, it's a pointless product. Especially when the Studio serves the same performance needs for a fraction of the cost.

So the Mac Pro is now discontinued. That alongside the protest display XDR, it seems like Apple is really making a shift from their highest end hardware being known as pro hardware, tone, studio hardware. With the ultra chip Mac studio, I'm excited to see where this goes from

I forgot to mention: pricing a brand-new Mac laptop at less than the Mac Pro's optional wheels.
