Overview
- Apple’s hardware lineup, which changed in March 2026, now excludes the Mac Pro and the 32-inch Pro Display XDR.
- A new 27-inch Studio Display XDR fills the pro monitor slot with mini-LED backlighting, 120Hz refresh, higher brightness, built-in speakers and camera, Thunderbolt 5, and a $3,299 price that includes a stand.
- Mac Studio tops out at 256GB of unified memory after Apple removed the 512GB option, a move reports tie to a global RAM shortage driven by AI server demand.
- The entry 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M5 chip now starts at 1TB of storage, ending the 512GB model and lifting the base price to $1,699 from $1,599.
- Apple also pulled older iPads, MacBooks, and accessories from sale, with most replaced by new versions, as the end of Mac Pro signals a full pivot away from modular towers toward fixed-config desktops.
