Apple Could Launch M5 Pro/Max MacBook Pros in Early March

The timing aligns with the macOS 26.3 rollout to coordinate hardware with the software release.

Overview

  • Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports the new MacBook Pros could arrive as soon as the week of March 2.
  • Apple’s current M4 Pro and M4 Max MacBook Pro models remain in short supply, suggesting a refresh is near.
  • Updated Mac Studio models are expected not long after the spring Mac release, with a new Studio Display also on the near-term roadmap.
  • System references in iOS 26 point to an upgraded Studio Display that could add ProMotion.
  • A Mac mini update is anticipated in 2026 alongside an all-new low-cost MacBook using an iPhone-class chip, while an OLED, touch-enabled MacBook Pro redesign is framed as the year’s major Mac launch.
