Apple is likely to release new Macs with M4 chips in November

It was reported that Apple would release new Macs by the end of the year; however, according to sources from MacRumors, the new models are expected to debut a bit earlier, in November.

At the same time, there is a possibility that Apple might hold an event in October—last year, for instance, the company announced an event on October 23, and the following week unveiled new models of the MacBook Pro and iMac featuring M3 chips.

Rumored information suggests that by the end of the year, Apple will release four new Mac models equipped with M4 series chips:

• an entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M4 chip;
• new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips;
• a new iMac with an M4 chip;
• a completely redesigned Mac mini featuring M4 and M4 Pro chips.

It is anticipated that the devices will receive minor updates (except for the Mac mini, which may potentially lose the USB-A port), primarily focusing on chip upgrades; however, the new Macs could be the first to come with 16 GB of memory as the standard configuration.

It is likely that some of the devices have already entered mass production, aligning with the anticipated launch date slated for November.
