Ahead of the 2024 product lineup release, Apple is reported
to be testing a new computer: a Mac Mini powered by the company’s latest M3
chip. The report has been shared by Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, who specifies that
Apple may be testing an eight-core CPU and a 10-core GPU Mac with 24GB RAM
that’s running macOS Sonoma 14.1.
Gurman further emphasizes that any M3-powered iMacs are not likely to arrive before the first fiscal quarter of 2024, which starts in October. Additionally, the 13-inch MacBooks, namely MacBook Air and MacBook pro, are expected to receive M3-equipped updates during the same time frame too.
The last time Apple showcased a new iMac was over two years
ago, with the introduction of a colorful redesign. It is speculated that there
may not be any changes in the body design of the new iMacs this time around, and
users would likely get a spec-bumped version of the current iMac model.
