Overview

• Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports Apple is nearing mass production of M5-based 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros and 13- and 15-inch MacBook Airs.
• The notebooks are expected to arrive between late 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, with fresh reporting suggesting a debut is more likely in early 2026 than in October.
• These updates are described as chip-focused releases built around the M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max processors rather than major hardware overhauls.
• The MacBook Air is widely expected to be primarily a processor refresh, maintaining the current design and feature set.
• Gurman also says two new Apple external displays are entering mass production, including a likely Studio Display replacement and a possible Pro Display XDR upgrade.
