Macworld At a glanceExpert's Rating ProsImpressive processing power, especially GPUPort flexibilityEnhanced HDMI with expanded display supportFan noise is very quietConsMemory and SSD are not user upgradeable (and never will be)Our VerdictIf it’s speed you need, the Mac Studio fits the bill. Apple’s primary offering for professionals is a complete package of processing power, features, and design. The Mac Studio had a splashy debut last year, a new desktop design with speed that filled the needs of the most demanding professionals. But it also raised a few questions at the time: Does it replace the Mac Pro? And if it doesn’t, will Apple continue the Mac Studio line once the Apple silicon Mac Pro arrives?

Apple’s work on visionOS has resulted in this year’s iOS, iPadOS, macOS Sonoma, and watchOS 10 being rather minor releases. iOS 17 upgrades the communications experience with Contact Posters, a new stickers experience, Live Voicemail, and much more. Mark Gurman for Bloomberg News: I’ve been testing iOS 17, iPadOS 17, macOS Sonoma and watchOS 10 since the first developer betas were released on Monday. I find all of the new software updates to be fairly minor, and perhaps, in totality, the lightest set of changes in a single Apple update cycle in recent history.

Over the past decade, Apple has only released three new Mac Pros and the latest version starts at $6,999 – the highest starting price of any ‌Mac Pro‌ model to date – making it all the more important to consider if now is a good time to upgrade or even if an older model will suffice for your needs. The 2023 Mac Pro is the first of its kind to feature Apple silicon and all previous models had Intel processors. While the machine loses support for eGPUs, it is around twice as powerful as the previous top-tier ‌Mac…
