Luke Larsen / Digital Trends I was as surprised as anyone when Apple killed off the 13-inch MacBook Pro in October 2023, but at the time, it was definitely a pleasant revelation rather than a nasty shock. Now, though? There’s something I wish Apple had done differently. Looking at Apple’s MacBook Pro lineup today, it’s almost perfect. How can Apple achieve that just-out-of-reach perfection? Maybe it should think about dropping the M3 MacBook Pro. I know, I know, it’s only just been released, but trust me — it needs…

Apple’s iMac Pro has been shrouded in mystery ever since it was discontinued in 2021. Over the past year, it has swung back into the news as numerous leakers and analysts have claimed a new one is coming soon. But when exactly? That’s far from certain. Now, though, we might have moved a little closer toward knowing, and it’s not great news if you’ve been hoping for an imminent update. That’s because reporter Mark Gurman’s latest Power On newsletter has outlined Apple’s plans for 2024 — and the iMac Pro is conspicuous…

Luke Larsen / Digital Trends Ah, yes — the eternal question MacBook buyers have: Is it worth waiting? On the surface, it might seem like it. After all, we’re at the beginning of a new chip refresh cycle, with Apple launching the M3 in November. But if you’re looking at buying any of the available MacBooks, I’d say you’re in a good spot to buy one that’s currently available and not regret your choices come next year. The M3 isn’t worth waiting for Digital Trends Apple’s latest M3 chips are fantastic, though they’re…

Digital Trends I was delighted when I first heard that the M2 MacBook Pro 13-inch was being replaced by the M3 MacBook Pro 14-inch. Finally, an entry-level MacBook Pro that actually felt “pro,” thanks to the screen, ports, and premium design. But after considering it, I have to admit that even the M3 MacBook Pro 14-inch remains bewildering. Sitting in-between the Air and Pro, it will undoubtedly make some buyers curious due to its name. But as far as I can suss out, it’s hard to deduce just who exactly this laptop is…

Digital Trends In 2020, Apple started a Herculean undertaking: transitioning its Macs to Apple Silicon. Despite its success, there’s been one Mac that Apple has kept in the lineup since its initial launch over three years ago. The M1 MacBook Air. But now, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman has just asserted that Apple will soon make a major change to the MacBook Air to finally bring it into the modern age, leaving behind its outdated processor once and for all. This can only be good news for Apple fans. As I’ve argued…

kaboompics / Pixabay Apple updated all of its Mac desktops in 2024, but left the worst part untouched: the accessories. In particular, we’re talking about the infamous Magic Mouse. The mouse has been dunked on for years at this point, often pointed to as an example of the worst of Apple’s design ethos. Despite all the positive changes to Macs over the past few years, the Magic Mouse has remained stagnant. A new report, however, indicates that the Mac accessories will undergo a major change in early 2024. The Magic…

Andy Boxall / Digital Trends Apple’s MacBook lineup is a bit all over the place at the moment. It’s full of fantastic machines that trounce the competition, yet picking the right Mac for you has never been more confusing. But amid all the uncertainty, one thing is for sure: I can finally stop recommending the M1 MacBook Air. For years now, the M1 MacBook Air has been a great choice for anyone looking to dip their toes into the world of Apple laptops. But three years after its launch, it’s no longer looking like the…
