A new MacBook Pro is “coming soon,” according to a social media post from Greg “Joz” Joswiak on Tuesday.
The tech world is waiting for Apple to introduce a second wave of product launches, but the October launches have yet to happen. However, an X message from an Apple executive gives hope that something will happen soon.
The post by Greg Joswiak, also known as “Joz” on X is very simple, but communicates a lot. The text of the message says “Mmmmm. Something powerful is coming.”
It’s accompanied by a very brief video showing the side of a partially opened MacBook Pro, largely hidden by darkness. The video also shows a glowing Apple logo and the words “Coming Soon.”
The social post from Apple’s marketing VP clearly teases the next generation MacBook Pro. The text is also a good clue as to what to expect, as it uses five letters M to represent the M5 generation of chips.
Although the post confirms that new updates to the MacBook Pro are on the way, featuring the M5 chip, it doesn’t explicitly say anything else. There’s also no timetable aside from “Soon,” but that at least hints that it’ll be an imminent launch.
So far, rumors about the October launches involve a base model MacBook Pro M5, most likely the 14-inch MacBook Pro. Aside from the chip change, this will likely be a spec update, meaning it could have storage and memory changes, but generally appears to be the same as the current M4-based model.
