The refreshed MacBook Pro will also bring back ports, including MagSafe, HDMI, and an SD card slot, and feature Apple Silicon, resulting in a thinner design compared to previous models. Unlike previous rumors, the new MacBook Pro will be powered by the M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, rather than the anticipated M6 Pro and M6 Max. Apple is reportedly skipping the higher-end chips in the upcoming M6 generation, focusing instead on the M7 generation for AI performance improvements.
