Apple’s rumored iMac Pro will launch in the summer rather than in the early months of the year, according to display analyst Ross Young.
Young, who often provides accurate insight into Apple’s display plans, said that he no longer expects the iMac Pro to launch in the spring, and that a “summer” launch seems more likely at this point. Panel shipments are expected to begin in June, and a release could follow in August or September.
Back in December, Young said that the iMac Pro with mini-LED display was going to launch in the spring, and Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman had also floated the machine as a possibility for a spring debut at an event that’s expected to take place in March or April.
According to Gurman, Apple’s spring event will focus on the iPhone SE with 5G connectivity, a refreshed version of the iPad Air with an updated A-series chip, and at least one new Mac powered by Apple silicon chips. Gurman suggested that this Mac might be either the new mini-LED iMac or the Mac mini, and with Young’s new data, it’s looking like we might see the new Mac mini ahead of the refreshed iMac if Gurman’s information pans out.
