The company confirmed to 9to5Mac that the desktop powerhouse has been discontinued, with <b>no plans for a successor<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">The move doesn\u2019t come as a surprise. The last refresh arrived in June 2023, when Apple introduced an M2 Ultra-powered Mac Pro to replace the long-running Intel-based model from 2019. <\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">With the Mac Pro now out of the picture, the <b>Mac Studio<\/b> is set to <b>take over as Apple\u2019s top-tier desktop<\/b> for power users. Apple updated the Mac Studio last year with M4 Max and M3 Ultra chips, along with Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, delivering performance that already rivalled \u2013 and in some cases surpassed \u2013 the Mac Pro in a more compact form factor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Moreover, the Mac Pro didn\u2019t offer much over the Mac Studio that would make it compelling. Like the Mac Studio, the Mac Pro didn\u2019t feature user-upgradeable memory. Sure, it had more Thunderbolt ports, but really, t<b>he only thing it had over the Mac Studio was PCIe expansion slots<\/b>. Clearly, this wasn\u2019t something that many users needed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Now, the current Mac lineup looks clearer and more streamlined, and is built around the efficiency and scalability of Apple Silicon. <\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">For more discussions on the discontinuation of the Apple Mac Pro, check out what our HardwareZone forum members are saying here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Source: 9to5Mac<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hardwarezone.com.sg\/pc\/apple-mac-pro-discontinued-mac-studio-flagship\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple has officially pulled the plug on the Mac Pro.
