Rumblings of the M3: Apple’s Next Big Thing?
Hold onto your MacBooks, tech buffs—Apple’s supposedly tinkering with the M3 chip, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be strolling into an M3‑powered store in 2022. The buzz is buzzing hard, but the actual launch remains as elusive as a unicorn in the wild.
What the Reports Say
- M3 Chip is reportedly under test, but no concrete specs or core count have been revealed.
- Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman highlights that the M2 Mac models are on track for a 2022 debut.
- Apple is staggering new Mac releases, which could mean a drip‑feed of fresh goodies throughout the year.
Why 2022 Is a Long Shot
Even with whispers of an M3, the timelines are still murky. Think of it like a magician promising a new trick—you’ll have to wait to see the curtain come down.

Apple’s Next‑Gen Macs: When the Big Reveal Happens
Rumour‑mongers are clutching their phones a little tighter after reports that the much‑awaited M3 chip won’t be shipped to customers until the end of next year—meaning December 2023. For a brand that loves to keep fans on their toes, that’s a pretty reasonable time‑frame.
The iMac Pro Might Still Be on the Horizon
Tech insider Gurman thinks the iMac Pro could still materialise, but like the M3, the launch won’t be happening any time soon. Apple’s pattern of staggered, subtle launches keeps everyone guessing.
New Macs Get a Boost from the M2 Chip
In the meantime, Apple is rolling out the M2 in a range of fresh Mac models, from powerhouses to budget options:
- Mac Pro – the new beast with more performance cores.
- 14‑inch & 16‑inch MacBook Pro – the slick gamers’ favourite.
- MacBook Air – lighter, faster, still super‑portable.
- Mac mini – the tiny but mighty workstation.
- Lower‑cost MacBook Pro – for those who want the Pro experience without the big price tag.
These devices will bring improved speed, better graphics, and a bang‑for‑buck upgrade that keeps Apple in the conversation until the M3 arrives.
See Why the Wait Is Worth It
Apple has mastered the art of the “just‑a‑bit-long‑wait” promise, and it’s proven time again that a good timing strategy often means more hype and higher sales once the product lands. Stick around — the next wave of Macs is set to break the internet by year’s end.
