When will Apple launch the new M2 powered Macs? Will it be in a macMini or MacBook Air? Will we get a definitive answer at 2022’s Worldwide Developer Conference? And how will that decision impact the entire Mac line-up for years to come?
Apple Macbook Pro 16 inch with touchbar. Focus on MacBook Pro logoApple’s WWDC is of course the perfect place to announce the capabilities of the next-generation Apple Silicon and the M2 chipset family. Although Apple did not announce the M1 chips at WWDC in 2020, it did offer the Developer Transition Kit, a macMini based desktop using an A12Z chipset from the iPad Pro but running macOS. That allowed developers to have their ARM-based apps ready to go when the new hardware arrived.
it announced the M1 alongside the Apple Silicon powered MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and macMini, ensuring that there was no Osborne Effect on the final Intel-based laptops. The move from the M1 family to the presumptively named M2 family will not be as traumatic as that first Intel to ARM moment, but the moving parts do need to be handled with care. You have the introduction of new Apple Silicon itself; the updates to macOS to accommodate the new features, and the actual hardware that will be released to consumers.
The MacBook Air has long been considered the lead machine to be the first M2 based Macs, and if you’re expecting Apple to be traditionally cautious then a new entry-level MacBook Pro and macMini models would launch alongside the Air in mid- to late-October.
