As a result, if you\u2019re in the market for a MacBook Air today, the M4 may not be worth the wait over existing options.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-summer-2025-m4-mac-studio-mac-pro\">Summer 2025: M4 Mac Studio, Mac Pro<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Switch to Mac Studio not Mac Pro | 2019 Mac Pro with 2023 Mac Studio\" class=\"wp-image-912866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp 1500w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=155,78 155w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=655,328 655w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=768,384 768w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=1024,512 1024w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=350,175 350w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=140,70 140w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=290,145 290w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/10\/MAC-PRO-STUDIO-6.jpg.webp?resize=150,75 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>The last two Macs to get the M4 chip will unsurprisingly be the most powerful. <\/p>\n<p>Apple\u2019s desktop powerhouses, the Mac Studio and Mac Pro, are expected to launch M4 updates <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2024\/08\/08\/gurman-heres-when-to-expect-m4-mac-studio-mac-pro-and-macbook-air-updates\/\">around the middle of 2025<\/a>\u2014perhaps at WWDC.<\/p>\n<p>These machines will likely be the first to include an M4 Ultra chip, alongside a cheaper M4 Max option for at least the Mac Studio.<\/p>\n<p>Other details on the Mac Studio and Mac Pro are minimal so far. One thing to watch is the chance of one or both products receiving hardware redesigns. The Studio might follow the pattern of the Mac mini and shrink down some. I\u2019d more likely put my money on a Mac Pro change, though, as it\u2019s overdue for a new form factor.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-full-m4-lineup-in-one-year\">The full M4 lineup in one year<\/h2>\n<p>If Apple can hit the expected timeline, it will have updated every Mac to new chips in under a year.<\/p>\n<p>In some ways, that\u2019s the dream of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mac_transition_to_Apple_silicon\">Apple silicon<\/a>. Whether a Mac is due for a big redesign, or would simply benefit from a spec bump, Apple is able to push updates faster than it ever could before.<\/p>\n<p>Mac users have had to endure an iPad getting the M4 first. But pretty soon, the wait for M4 Macs will be over.<\/p>\n<p>Which upcoming M4 Mac are you most interested in?
