The MacPro may have been delayed yet again. Is it time for Apple to give up on this Mac for good?
The Mac Pro has always been the cream of the crop in terms of performance. That’s why its transition to Apple Silicon has been so highly anticipated over these past couple years.
Apple Silicon modularity doesn’t work The Mac Pro is the opposite of everything that makes the Apple Silicon Macs work. It was reintroduced in 2019 as not only the most powerful Mac in the lineup — but also the most modular. This was Apple’s take on a traditional desktop tower, meaning many of the components could be upgraded, repaired, or replaced with ease.

While storage would still be able to be upgraded, by the logic of the design of Apple Silicon, it’s hard to imagine how memory could be upgradeable. Without this kind of modularity, one of the primary selling points of the Mac Pro is out the window — and the very idea already has Pro users frustrated.
And now, word on the street is that the new Mac Pro will use an M2 Ultra. That would be, as it sounds, the successor to the same chip that debuted in the Mac Studio. As you can probably imagine, that leaves very little difference between these two desktops. Given how much cheaper and smaller the Mac Studio is, what possible reason would there be to buy the Mac Pro?
