While Apple is moving toward a multi-model AI strategy for Siri, Samsung appears to be following a similar path by integrating Perplexity's AI into its Bixby assistant for the upcoming Galaxy S26. According to the well-regarded tipster @chunvn8888 on X (Twitter), the arrangement would see Samsung's Bixby continuing to handle basic on-device requests such as toggling settings and activating system features, while Perplexity's models would take on queries that involve complex reasoning and generative tasks. Currently, Apple Intelligence blends on-device models for relatively simple tasks with OpenAI's ChatGPT for more complex reasoning and generation. A Samsung-Perplexity pairing would replicate this split. However, Samsung already maintains a deep AI partnership with Google, and newer Galaxy devices ship with Gemini-powered features embedded directly into its custom One UI interface. Choosing Perplexity suggests Samsung is widening its model pool rather than consolidating around Google's ecosystem. Meanwhile, Apple is preparing a broader expansion of its own multi-model strategy. A recent Bloomberg report claims the more capable version of Siri under development will rely on Google's Gemini for advanced tasks such as summarisation and multi-step planning, with Apple's own models continuing to power select features. The more advanced Siri was originally meant to arrive with iOS 18, but Apple is said to have recognized the need to rework the assistant's core architecture, which has pushed the release to a software update expected early next year. Confirmed: Bixby will have Perplexity integrated into it. Basic tasks will be handled by Bixby while complicated, more thinking tasks will be backed by Perplexity. Just like how ChatGPT x Apple Intelligence works. Debut during the S26 series Unpacked very likely.â Semi-retired-ing (@chunvn8888) November 24, 2025 Despite Apple's reliance on external partners, Apple is said to be continuing to invest heavily in its internal LLM roadmap. Apple is reportedly developing a cloud-based complex reasoning model that could be ready as soon as 2026. As a result of the update, âSiriâ will be able to answer more complex queries and complete more complicated tasks in and between apps. It will be closer in function to Claude and ChatGPT, however Apple is not planning a dedicated chatbot app.Tags: Apple Intelligence, SamsungThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums12:43 pmApple promotes iPhone 17 Pro vapor chamber cooling in dynamic ad

A large retail chain offered 13-inch iPad Air models to loyalty card holders for $17, with both online orders and in-store collection sales processed and the iPads handed over to their new owners. It took the company 11 days to realize it had made a mistake, and it is now asking customers who bought the iPads to either return them or pay almost full price for them.

Macworld By the time this article is published, there will only be four days to go until Black Friday, the most magical and beloved day of the year. I hope youâve put up your decorations. At this time of year, tech fans can pick up bargains (while avoiding non-bargains) on products that would otherwise be outside their budget. But as an Apple fan, I always feel an inexplicable sense of second-hand embarrassment. âWill there be Apple Store discounts on iPhones?â friends ask me with naive optimism. No, I have to answer. There will just be gift cards. Thatâs not to say that you wonât see any discounts on Apple products: there are plenty to be had already. Itâs just that the discounts will be offered by other retailers. Buy direct from Apple and youâll pay not one cent less than MSRP, while receiving a moderately generous gift card you can use on your next purchase. Itâs almost like the company wants to help out its reseller partners by pushing business their way. This lack of direct discounts shouldnât come as a surprise, of course. Partly because Apple always does the gift card thing, but also because it doesnât do bargains more generally. Certainly not in the sense of sudden, time-limited, slightly panicky price drops you have to pounce on before theyâre gone. It simply doesnât feel the need to compete, either on price or for attention; after years of nurturing a sense of community, even tribalism, Apple knows that customers will come to it, rather than the other way around. Apple doesnât do out-and-out cheap products, either. These days, you can find a perfectly decent Android phone for less than $250, or even $200 if youâre willing to make some sacrifices, but thatâs not a market Apple is interested in. This time last year, the iPhone SE sat at the top of the budget category, starting at $429 by March, but that was phased out in favor of the defiantly mid-market (and in my opinion ill-conceived) $599 iPhone 16e. It suits Appleâs purposes to focus on selling a smaller number of higher-margin handsets, knowing that each iPhone owner represents a micro-advert to their friends. Ultra-budget phones are not aspirational. All of this might make it sound like I subscribe to the idea of the Apple Tax, that proverbial premium supposedly added on to the prices of iPhones, Macs, and the like for no good reason other than Apple customers being gullible enough to pay it. But I donât. Apple doesnât do cheap, but that doesnât mean it doesnât do value, as weâve seen this past year in particular. Cupertino steers clear of the true budget market but consistently offers strong value with its mid-market products. My favorite release of 2025, for example, is the Apple Watch SE 3, which delivers so much bang for its 249 bucks that I was obliged to advise readers to choose it over the fuller-featured Series 11. You donât need to pay $399 to get an excellent watch because Apple has significantly raised its game at the lower price point. Thereâs also the iPhone 17, which starts at the same $799 but has a slew of upgrades over last yearâs model, including double the storage, a pro-caliber display, and a higher-end selfie camera. Itâs a fantastic value. This yearâs M4 MacBook Air, which got a new chip and an upgraded camera, actually saw a price drop of $100 compared with the previous version, which is basically unheard of in Cupertino. Apple fans can now get the latest-generation Air for under a grand or right now under $750 if you take advantage of Amazonâs Black Friday sale.) Donât get me wrong: Chromebook prices these are not. But you wonât find a tax for the sake of a brand name either. Having dispelled that particular myth, it becomes less of a surprise to hear reports that Apple is planning to release a cluster of cheap products in the spring of 2026. And by cheap, of course, I mean sensibly affordable: $599 for the iPhone 17e, $699-$899 for the new budget MacBook, and hopefully not much more than $349 for the newly AI-compliant 11th-gen iPad. So sure: theyâre not the sort of prices that make you set your alarm on Black Friday. Theyâre not doorbuster deals. But theyâre good products at good prices, and thatâs something to be praised all year round.

Macworld Black Friday week is here, and itâs always the best time to buy a new Apple device for an all-time low price, especially iPads. However, there are a lot of models to choose from, not to mention the accessories available, and choosing the best can be tricky. If youâre planning to buy your first iPad or upgrade your current tablet to a newer model, weâve got you covered. Hereâs a breakdown of which iPad models are worth buying, what accessories we recommend, and the best deals for this Black Friday. The best iPad deal foe everyone: M3 iPad Air Right now, the M3 iPad Air is the best iPad you can buy. Not only because of its incredible $150 discount on Amazon for Black Friday (across all colors, sizes, and configurations), but also because the iPad Air is the model I recommend to everyone who wants a good iPad without spending too much. The iPad Air is essentially the mid-range iPad in the lineup. It doesnât have all the fancy features of the Pro models, such as an OLED display with ProMotion or Face ID, but itâs still a very capable iPad that can do just about everything the iPad Pro can do. Apple The M3 chip is still extremely powerful, especially for running iPadOS apps and multitasking. Youâll be hard-pressed to find anything that pushes this chip to its limits on the iPad. From lightweight apps to more intense games, everything runs smoothly. In terms of software, you wonât be missing out on anything by choosing the iPad Air over the more expensive iPad Pro. The iPad Air can run the same apps and features, such as Apple Intelligence and Stage Manager with support for external monitors. You can find nearly every M3 iPad Air model on Amazon for $150 off, with prices starting at $449, less than an iPad mini at full price. Itâs definitely the best deal for almost anyone looking for a new iPad. M5 iPad Pro: Now $100 off While the iPad Air is great for most people, some users need the high-end features provided by the iPad Pro. I know because I own one. If youâre like me, the newly released M5 iPad Pro is already $100 off on Amazon for Black Friday. The M5 iPad Pro stands out from other iPads because of its ultra-thin design, OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, Face ID, and a LiDAR scanner on the back. Itâs also the only iPad with four built-in speakers and a USB-C connection with Thunderbolt 4 support for faster data transfer. An Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard are great companions to the iPad Pro.Foundry The M5 models also come with some exclusive features you wonât find on any other Apple product, including 12GB of RAM in the entry-level models, Wi-Fi 7, and fast charging. While prices for the M5 iPad Pro start at $999 for the 11-inch model, you can now find the base model with an 11-inch screen and 256GB of storage for $899. Itâs a good deal for a product that has just been released. The iPad mini is also a great option How could we not mention the iPad mini? The most adorable and smallest iPad is ideal for people who want a good tablet to take with them on the go, and itâs also on sale this Black Friday. The current model was released last year, but Apple doesnât upgrade the iPad mini regularly, so itâs istill a safe purchase. It has the same A17 Pro chip as the iPhone 15 Pro, which is capable of running almost all iPadOS and Apple Intelligence apps with ease. Its compact 8.3-inch screen makes it perfect for reading, using social media, and even using it as a portable console. Iâd still recommend the Air, but if you want something super portable, you can pair it with an Apple Pencil (see below) to turn your iPad mini into a great notepad. Typically, prices for the iPad mini start at $499, but you can buy the base model this Black Friday for just $399. Most other options are $100 off as well. Give your iPad an Apple Pencil Pro One of my favorite accessories for the iPad is the Apple Pencil, and the Apple Pencil Pro takes it to another level. Iâm not an artist, and I have zero drawing skills. Still, I love using Apple Pencil Pro to write quick notes and edit photos with precision. It also works as a precision pointing device. The Apple Pencil Pro is a fantastic companion to the iPad AIr, mini, or Pro.Foundry Apple Pencil Pro also has some cool tricks. It has pressure sensitivity, haptic feedback, and a gesture that lets you squeeze the Pencil to open a menu for quick access to useful options. Plus, it works with the Find My app, so you can easily locate your Apple Pencil if you ever lose it. Normally $129, you can find the Apple Pencil Pro this Black Friday for $99, an impressive 23 percent discount. Just keep in mind that the Apple Pencil Pro only works with the M2 iPad Air and later, the M4 iPad Pro and later, and the A17 Pro iPad mini. If you donât see the need for all the advanced features of the Apple Pencil Pro and just want a stylus for writing notes without spending too much, Apple sells the USB-C Apple Pencil. It looks a lot like the Apple Pencil Pro, but there are some key differences. The USB-C Apple Pencil recharges via cable rather than wirelessly. It also lacks support for the squeeze and double-tap gestures, and has no pressure sensitivity â although it does have tilt sensitivity. One advantage is that the USB-C Apple Pencil works with all of Appleâs 2025 iPads, while the Pro isnât supported by the entry-level iPad. During this Black Friday, Amazon is selling the USB-C Apple Pencil for $69 (down from $79). Itâs not a huge discount, but itâs still a good deal cheaper than the Apple Pencil Pro. The iPad Pro is great with an Apple Magic Keyboard, but itâs expensive.Foundry Logitech Combo Touch: a great alternative to Appleâs Magic Keyboard Your iPad also deserves a keyboard, especially if you plan to use it as a laptop. Unfortunately, itâs hard to find good deals on Appleâs Magic Keyboard. Luckily, Appleâs keyboard has a worthy competitor: the Logitech Combo Touch. The Logitech Combo Touch is essentially an iPad case with a built-in full-size keyboard. More than that, it also has a multitouch trackpad. Although it doesnât feel as premium as Appleâs alternative, the Combo Touch has one big advantage: It doubles as a rugged case to protect your iPad. And if you donât want the keyboard, you can easily detach it without having to remove the case. There are different versions of the Logitech Combo Touch available for each iPad model, but Black Friday discounts are up to 25 percent off. For instance, the Combo Touch for the M3 iPad Air is now $160, almost half the price of Appleâs Magic Keyboard. Now that you know the best Black Friday deals on iPads and accessories, choose the one that best suits your needs.

These are the best deals weâve seen so far. Check out our advice below this section for tips on what to look out for. U.S. Amazon, Apple Watch Series 11 (42mm): $349 ($50 off, MSRP $399) Amazon, Apple Watch Series 11 (46mm): $379 ($50 off, MSRP $429) Amazon, Apple Watch SE 3 (40mm): $200 ($49 off, MSRP $249) Amazon, Apple Watch SE 3 (44mm): $230 ($49 off, MSRP $279) Amazon, Apple Watch Ultra 3: $780 ($20 off, MSRP $799) Apple, $50 gift card with Apple Watch SE 3 and Series 11 U.K. In the U.K., Apple cut the Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 prices by ÂŁ30 and ÂŁ50 compared to the previous generation when they were introduced. Keep this in mind when shopping, because some stores might make savings appear to be larger than they actually are. Amazon, Apple Watch Ultra 3: ÂŁ719 (ÂŁ30 off, RRP ÂŁ749) KRCS, Apple Watch SE 3 (40mm): ÂŁ215 (ÂŁ4 off, RRP ÂŁ219) Amazon, Apple Watch SE 3 (44mm): ÂŁ239 (ÂŁ10 off, RRP ÂŁ249) Argos, Apple Watch Ultra 2: ÂŁ599 (ÂŁ200 off, RRP was ÂŁ799, Ultra 3 is ÂŁ749) Currys, Apple Watch Series 10 (42mm) GPS: ÂŁ279 (ÂŁ120 off, was ÂŁ399, Series 11 is ÂŁ369) Currys, Apple Watch Series 10 (46mm) GPS: ÂŁ299 (ÂŁ130 off, was ÂŁ429, Series 11 is ÂŁ399) Apple, ÂŁ40 gift voucher with Apple Watch SE 3 and Series 11 How to get the best Apple Watch deals for Black Friday 2025: Our advice Like always, Apple sells three watches, but for the first time in years, all three models were updated this year. Apple Watch Series 11: The standard Apple Watch Series 11 starts at the same price as previous watches ($399/ÂŁ369) and is largely the same as the Series 10. The main upgrade is better battery life (24 hours vs 18 hours), 5G connectivity, and better scratch resistance. Weâre spotlighting a deal on the Series 10 for $120 off and recommend grabbing it instead of paying more for the Series 11. Apple Watch Ultra 3: The Apple Watch Ultra 3 ($799/ÂŁ749) has a slightly larger screen, 5G connectivity, Emergency SOS via satellite, and significantly longer battery life (42 hours vs 36 hours). With prices already dropping by $100, we recommend picking up the newer model if youâre looking for a large, rugged watch. Apple Watch SE 3: Apple updated the Apple Watch SE for the first time in years and gave it several overdue features, including an always-on display, skin temperature sensor, gestures, 5G, a faster chip, and fast charging. With the same $249/ÂŁ219 starting price, an older SE 2 would need to be around $100 to be worth it. Early Black Friday sales are already pushing the price of the SE 3 under $200 and we think itâs a fantastic option for just about anyone. For detailed advice on selecting the best model for you, check out our Apple Watch buying guide. Black Friday Apple Watch deals: What to avoid Itâs important to be aware that Black Friday brings bad deals as well as good ones. Retailers donât want to give you a great deal; they want you to buy their unwanted stock at a high price and will use all sorts of tricks to persuade you to do so. Donât let them get away with it. Always check the current MSRP/RRP for the watch youâre planning to buy (we include these with all of our recommended deals). In the U.K. Apple dropped prices on the new set of Watches when they were introduced, but retailers will conveniently forget to mention this and quote the old price instead. That makes their discount look bigger and the deal more appealing. Some retailers also raise their own prices ahead of Black Friday, then drop them back down and claim a large saving. Price tracker sites like CamelCamelCamel can help you to work out if this has happened. We will also flag it if we see it. Itâs worth checking reviews and buying guides (such as ours, linked above) to assess the age and worth of the device. Make sure youâre not being fobbed off with antiquated stock. Also, watch out for deals on the cellular models; these can look like big savings, but in our experience, there is little point in owning a cellular Apple Watch. You might as well pay less and get the standard model. Finally, what actually constitutes a good deal? U.S. buyers should be looking at a benchmark of roughly $50 to $70 off the current models and $100 or more off discontinued ones, which is what we saw in 2024. But deals tend to be weaker in the U.K., where we struggled to find ÂŁ30 off anything in 2024. Does Apple discount Apple Watches for Black Friday? Apple doesnât drop prices for Black Friday. Rather, it gives away gift cards when you buy certain items. For Appleâs Black Friday deal in 2025, it is giving away $50/ÂŁ40 gift cards with Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Series 11 purchases made on Appleâs U.S. site or Appleâs U.K. site. The Series 10 wasnât included in 2024âs sale, so the fact that the Apple Watch 11 is included this year is a nice surprise.

Hereâs what to look out for: AirPods 4: Appleâs cheapest AirPods werenât updated in 2025, and weâve seen prices falling all year. Over Prime Day, they dropped to $89 and early Black Friday sales have already dipped even lower. We donât know if theyâll get as low as $75, but itâs possible. AirPods 4 with ANC: Apple sells a version of the AirPods 4 with noise cancellation for an extra $50, but weâve seen them as low as $119. With AirPods 4 ANC getting a larger price drop heading into Black Friday, we could see the ANC model inch closer to $110. AirPods Pro 3: Apple just released the newest AirPods Pro 3 in September alongside the iPhone 17, so weâre not expecting the kind of deep discounts we saw last year with AirPods Pro 2. However, we might see the remaining stock of AirPods Pro 2 drop as low as $150. AirPods Max: Appleâs over-the-ear AirPods havenât been updated in a meaningful way since 2020. They still have an H1 chip, donât support Appleâs latest AirPods Pro features, and have a very high price tag compared to similar wireless headphones. If you want a pair, we wouldnât recommend buying AirPods Max unless they drop under $400. Does Apple discount AirPods for Black Friday? Apple doesnât cut prices for Black Friday, but it does hold a shopping event where it gives away gift cards when you buy certain items. For Appleâs Black Friday deal in 2025, it is giving up to $75 in gift cards with the purchase of AirPods models made on Appleâs U.S. site or Appleâs U.K. site. The AirPods Pro are included in the deal, with a $75 voucher. 2025202420232022AirPods 4$25$25n/an/aAirPods Pro (3rd generation)$50n/an/an/aAirPods Pro (2nd generation)n/a$50$50$50AirPods Max$75 $75$75$75 You can about Appleâs Black Friday shopping event here: Apple Black Friday 2025: Details of Appleâs sale.

Hereâs a quick overview of Appleâs lineup: iPad: Apple updated its cheapest iPad in 2025 with an A16 chip and twice the storage (128GB) of the previous model. At $349, itâs already a fantastic value, but we regularly see prices drop to $300. For Black Friday, weâre looking out for anything under $280, which would be an all-time low sale. iPad mini: The iPad mini was updated in October 2024 with an A17 Pro processor, 8GB of RAM, and twice the storage (128GB). It regularly drops to $399, so weâre hoping to see prices hit a new all-time low of $375 for Black Friday. iPad Air: Apple updated the iPad Air with an M3 processor in 2024, but left it otherwise unchanged. It still comes in two sizes, 11 inches and 13 inches, and has the same gorgeous design. We saw price cuts as high as $150 off for the Prime Day sale, so weâre hoping for even deeper savings over Black Friday. iPad Pro: The iPad Pro was updated in October with an M5 processor, but weâll spotlight any deals on the M4 model as well, since itâs still fantastic tablet. iPad Accessory Black Friday 2025 deals Mahmoud Itani / Foundry Black Friday is also a great time to find deals on iPad accessories, including the Apple Pencil.

Every year Apple holds a shopping event from Black Friday to Cyber Monday. However, Apple rarely discounts its products and the event consists of gift card offers rather than actual savings. The Apple Black Friday shopping event for 2025 has been announced and the iPad Air, iPad mini and standard iPad are all included. Itâs no real surprise that the M5 iPad Pro is off the list as it it was just released in October. You can get a voucher for $100/ÂŁ80 with the Air and $50/ÂŁ40 with the other iPads.

Apple's online store has sold out of the limited-edition Hikawa Phone Grip and Stand accessibility accessory it debuted late last week. However, two new color options in production are set to be released in early December and can be pre-ordered directly from Hikawa's website. Hikawa is offering the MagSafe-compatible Grip and Stand in Cobalt and Blurple Swirl, following the rapid sellout of its Chartreuse and Crater colors. The accessories cost ÂŁ55 each (about $72 USD) and international shipping is available â but stock is extremely limited, so move quickly if you're interested. Designed by LA-based Bailey Hikawa to celebrate the 40th anniversary of accessibility at Apple, the grip uses magnets to securely snap onto any iPhone with MagSafe. Hikawa says it can be removed with ease, and doubles as a stand with two different viewing angles, in both vertical and horizontal orientations. Inspired by modern sculpture, the Hikawa's design process involved direct input from individuals with disabilities affecting muscle strength, dexterity, and hand control. The Hikawa website also sells a range of unconventional high-end iPhone cases, as well as a selection of eye-catching toilet seats.Tag: AccessibilityThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums11:40 amBest Black Friday 2025 iPhone deals: The best deals you can get now

Best iPhone deals Black Friday 2025 Most iPhone deals in the U.S. are through carriers and require a trade-in or adding a new line. You can buy an iPhone from Apple and get a gift voucher though: Apple, $75 gift voucher with iPhone 16 or 16 Plus Apple, $50 gift voucher with iPhone 16e In the U.K. there are less limitations on the sale of iPhones so you will be able to pick one up unlocked at a discount if you would prefer to buy an iPhone up front, rather than on a contract. These are the best deals weâve seen so far: Amazon, iPhone 16e (128GB): ÂŁ509 (ÂŁ90 off, RRP ÂŁ599) Amazon, iPhone 16e (256GB): ÂŁ649 (ÂŁ50 off, RRP ÂŁ699) Amazon, iPhone 16e (512GB): ÂŁ849 (ÂŁ50 off, RRP ÂŁ899) AO, iPhone 16 (128GB): ÂŁ644 (ÂŁ55 off, RRP now ÂŁ699) AO, iPhone 16 Pro (128GB): ÂŁ899 (ÂŁ100 off, RRP was ÂŁ999) Apple, ÂŁ60 gift voucher with iPhone 16 or 16 Plus Apple, ÂŁ40 gift voucher with iPhone 16e iPhone carrier deals for Black Friday 2025 In the U.S., the only big iPhone deals you can find come from carriers, and have a lot of strings attached. Typically, you have to buy a phone on a multi-year installment plan and get your discount in the form of monthly bill credits. On Black Friday, most U.S. carriers simply promote these deals, even though theyâre running all the time, but on occasion they change slightly. Carriers will likely have enticing deals with trade-ins as well, but be wary of long-term contracts and terms. Conditions always apply hereâyou may need to have a specific plan, open a new line, or trade in a device. Most U.S. carrier deals require you to buy the phone on an installment plan, and then you get the discount as bill credits toward your monthly payment. These are the deals currently available from the major U.S. carriers: AT&T: You can get up to $1100 off the iPhone 17 Pro when you trade in an eligible iPhone. The savings transform into monthly credits on your bill for the next 36 months. T-Mobile: The carrier offers the iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone Air for free if you either switch to T-Mobile or trade in a qualifying phone, as long as youâre on a qualifying Experience Beyond plan. The phone is paid through 24 monthly bill credits. Verizon: Get an iPhone 17 or iPhone 17 Pro free with trade in and certain Unlimited plans. This phone is paid through 36 monthly bill credits. U.S. Cellular: Up to $1,100 off iPhone 17 Pro (or any other iPhone) with a new line and qualifying plan. This phone is paid through 36 monthly bill credits. Xfinity Mobile: If you trade in a qualifying phone you can get up to $830 off a new iPhone 17 series model. Boost Mobile: You can get $850 off the price of the iPhone 17 with Boostâs $65 per month plan. How to get the best iPhone deals for Black Friday 2025: Our Advice Apple is offering a $75/ÂŁ60 voucher with the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, and $50/ÂŁ40 with the iPhone 16e, you should make sure that any offers you see beat those prices. Most iPhone deals in the U.S. are through carriers and require a trade-in or adding a new line. Carriers will likely have enticing deals with trade-ins over Black Friday, but be wary of long-term contracts and terms. You can see the Black Friday carrier deals in the section below. Shoppers in the U.K. should look for discounts on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, but note Apple has already cut the price by $100/ÂŁ100 â so make sure that the reseller isnât inflating the price drop by quoting the old price. Black Friday can be a good time to get a deal on an older iPhone, such as the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max which are now discontinued. These will be worth grabbing if you see them at a good price. iPhone 17: Apple only launched the iPhone 17 lineup in September so we donât expect to see big discounts, other than the typical âfree iPhone as bill credits over several years with a qualifying planâ deals that are always on offer in the U.S. iPhone 16: Shoppers should look out for discounts on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, but note that Apple has already cut prices by $100/ÂŁ100. Also note that Apple no longer sells the 512GB versions of these handsets, so if you find those models on sale at a good price we recommend buying them. Similarly, if you see the now discontinued, iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max on sale at a good price then these would be a good purchase. iPhone 16e: The price of the iPhone 16e will likely drop. This is Appleâs âbudgetâ handset so it already has a low price though so donât expect huge additional savings. We donât recommend any iPhones older than the ones above, especially not the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus which are not Apple Intelligence compatible. iPhone earphones deals for Black Friday 2025 Many of the best deals are going to be on iPhone accessoriesâcases, chargers, cables, and the like. There are way too many such products to keep track of, and many small discounts come and go throughout the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale.

Rather than discount its products, every year Apple holds a shopping event from Black Friday to Cyber Monday. Appleâs Black Friday âdealâ takes the form of gift card offers, rather than actual savings. While Apple is yet to confirm what Apple is doing for Black Friday 2025 we can hazard a guess that it will be similar to last year. In 2024 when buying an iPhone 15 from Apple you could get a voucher for $75/ÂŁ60, with an iPhone 14 it was a $50/ÂŁ40 Apple Gift Card, and an iPhone SE came with a $25/ÂŁ20 Apple Gift Card. These iPhones are no longer on sale, so the 2025 deal may be for the iPhone 16, 16 Plus and 16e. The give aways over the past few years could give us a clue as to what the deal might be for 2025. Perhaps $75 with the iPhone 16 and $50 with the iPhone 16e. 2025202420232022iPhone 16 & Plus$75âââiPhone 16e$50âââiPhone 15â$75ââiPhone 14â$50$75âiPhone 13ââ$50$50iPhone SEâ$25$25$50 Get Apple's Black Friday offer (U.S.) Get Apple's Black Friday offer (U.K.) Black Friday 2025: Best deals for Apple products Check out these roundups for the best Apple deals: Apple Black Friday sale details Best Black Friday Apple deals Best Black Friday MacBook & Mac deals Best Black Friday AirPods deals Best Black Friday Apple Watch deals Best Black Friday iPad deals Best Black Friday iPhone deals11:32 amBest Black Friday 2025 MacBook and Mac deals: Donât pass up these huge savings

Check the generation of the model that is discounted to make sure you know exactly what you are buying and what itâs really worth. Weâve seen resellers switch to selling refurbished or used when the stock of brand-new models run out, so check that the model discounted isnât actually a used Mac and therefore not as good a deal as it might look. Thatâs not to say you should avoid refurb models; you just need to make sure that you arenât buying something used when you want a new model. Mac deals arenât limited to Black Friday. We see good deals all year round, so donât feel pressured into buying during Black Friday. How to get the best MacBook deals for Black Friday 2025: Our advice Foundry Apple updated nearly all of its MacBook models in 2025, and we expect to see all-time-low pricing on many models and configurations: M4 MacBook Air: Apple updated the MacBook Air with an M4 chip in March with a surprising $100 price cut across the board. That means the base model starts at under $1,000 and is routinely on sale for $800 or less. Amazon has already cut the price to $750 and we expect it could go even lower once Black Friday arrives. M4 Pro/Max MacBook Pro: Appleâs high-end laptops havenât been updated since late 2024, but theyâre still excellent machines. We wouldnât hesitate to buy one at a discount of $300 or more, even with rumors of an M5 update coming. M5 MacBook Pro: Apple released the M5 MacBook Pro in October, so we donât expect to see huge discounts just yet. However, itâs possible to see price cuts of $100 over Black Friday. For more information about the differences and which MacBook might be best for you, read How the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro compare. How to get the best Mac deals for Black Friday 2025: Our advice Simon Jary / Foundry Apple hasnât updated any of its consumer-level desktop Macs in 2025, so prices on the M4 models are as low as theyâve ever been: M4/M4 Pro Mac mini: Apple updated the Mac mini late last year with an M4 chip and a new design. The M4 Mac mini is a fantastic device with an extremely small footprint, so donât hesitate to grab one at a discount. M4 iMac: The iMac has a 24-inch 4.5K display and a speedy M4 processor starting at $1,299. Look for sales between $1,100 and $1,150 before you decide to buy one. Does Apple discount Macs for Black Friday? Apple doesnât drop prices for Black Friday. Rather, it gives away gift cards when you buy certain items. For Appleâs Black Friday shopping event in 2025 it is giving away gift cards with MacBook Air, Mac mini, iMac and M4 Pro and M4 Max MacBook Pro purchases made on Appleâs U.S. site or Appleâs U.K. site. Since they are so new, the M5 MacBook Pro models arenât included in Appleâs deal. The 2025 deal is pretty good. You can get a gift card for up to $250 on a new Mac, which is better than 2024âs maximum offer. 202520242023202215-inch MacBook Air$200$200$200n/a13-inch MacBook Air$175$175$175$15013-inch MacBook Air (M2)â$150$150$150Mac mini$100â$100$10014-inch & 16-inch MacBook Pro$250ââ$250iMac$150ââ$150 Buying from Apple means you are guaranteed to be buying the latest Mac, whereas other resellers may be clearing old stock.

Even the AirPods 4 are relatively new, arriving in late 2024. We usually see the best savings on AirPods over Black Friday weekend, rather than in the run up to the event, but once they arrive, the deals are tremendous. Look for the newer AirPods Pro 3 at a modest $30-$50 off, but other models could get deep discounts. We expect to see AirPods Pro 2 as low as $150, AirPods 4 dropping under $85 for the first time, and AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation at or near $100.

The two new health features, hypertension alerts and Sleep Score, are also available on the Series 10, and there isnât a new color this year. We donât think Series 9 or 10 users need to upgrade, but if you want one, we are seeing savings of around $50, which is a great price for such a full-featured watch. The Ultra 3 got a slightly better update, with a larger screen, satellite connectivity, 5G, and 42 hours of battery life. Weâre looking for at least $50 off, but be on the lookout for deals as low as $699. Surprisingly, the SE 3 got the biggest update of all, gaining an always-on display, temperature sensor, a faster chip, on-device Siri, and fast charging. The SE 3 for under $200 is a fantastic deal, and one weâd recommend for nearly every buyer.

Apple has published a new ad for the iPhone 17 Pro on its YouTube channel, highlighting the device's vapor chamber cooling and A19 Pro chip. Titled "Peak Performance," the minute-long ad opens with a man running through an arid desert landscape when storm clouds coalesce above him. A drop of water falls from the sky and evaporates on his forehead, providing him with super-human performance and multitasking ability. A voiceover says: The Apple A19 Pro chip is vapor cooled. Because when you run cool, you can push your limits. And juggle over 35 trillion complex tasks a second. Just imagine if we were that powerful...As the man continues to run, he plays the keys on an elongated piano while solving a Rubik's cube with one hand, then breaks through a wall and dashes through a room of singers, before smashing through another wall and eclipsing the camera view. Apple overhauled the thermal design of the iPhone 17 Pro models, adopting a vapor chamber cooling system. With the vapor chamber system, a small amount of deionized water moves heat away from the A19 Pro chip and distributes it throughout the iPhone's aluminum unibody frame. Apple says the design allows for 40 percent better sustained performance for demanding tasks. Starting at $1,099 for the Pro and $1,199 for the Pro Max, the iPhone 17 Pro models are more expensive than the $999 iPhone Air and the $799 iPhone 17, but they have the most advanced feature set available in the iPhone line.Tag: Apple AdsThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums10:00 amBlack Friday: Apple offers six months of Apple TV streaming service for $5.99/month to new and returning customers | PowerPageBlack Friday: Apple offers six months of Apple TV streaming service for $5.99/month to new and returning customers

iOS 27 will reportedly have two major elements: quality improvements and new AI features. In his Power On newsletter today, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said that iOS 27 will be similar to Mac OS X Snow Leopard, in the sense that Apple is focused on improving "quality and underlying performance" over adding new features. Gurman said there is one exception to this rule, though, as he expects there to be new AI features. He said that iOS 27 will extend artificial intelligence to additional Apple apps, and he reiterated that there will be an Apple Health+ subscription service that offers personalized health recommendations and more. He said this focus on improved quality over new features also applies to macOS 27. The first betas of iOS 27, macOS 27, and other corresponding updates should be released shortly after Apple's annual developers conference WWDC next June.

Earlier this month, the Financial Times reported that Apple is preparing for Tim Cook to step down as CEO of the company "as soon as next year." While the report said that Apple is unlikely to name a new CEO before its next earnings report in late January, it went on to explain that an announcement early in the year would allow for a smooth leadership transition, ahead of Apple's annual developers conference WWDC in June and iPhone event in September. However, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said he would be "shocked" if Cook steps down between late January and June next year. "Based on everything I've learned in recent weeks, I don't believe a departure by the middle of next year is likely," said Gurman, in his Power On newsletter today. "In fact, I would be shocked if Cook steps down in the time frame outlined by the FT." There have been "few signs internally" that Cook is about to step down, he added. Gurman described the Financial Times report as "premature" and "simply false." Apple's Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering, John Ternus, is widely viewed as Cook's most likely successor whenever the time comes. Cook, who turned 65 this year, has been Apple's CEO since August 2011.

Macworld Wondering which versions of macOS your Mac can run? Weâve put together a macOS compatibility checker that will show you what Macs the different versions of macOS and Mac OS X support, so you can tell what version you should be running on your Mac. Latest macOS version: Tahoe (macOS 26), released November 15, 2025 Supports: All M-series Macs and most Intel Macs from 2019 onward Security-supported versions: MacOS Sequoia (15), Sonoma (14), and Ventura (13) still get critical security updates. Which version of macOS can my Mac run? Apple releases a new version of the Mac operating system every yearâbut the newest version of the Mac operating system does not support every Mac. Each year more and more Macs fall off the compatibility list and are unable to be updated to take advantage of the latest features. The latest version, macOS 26 Tahoe, arrived on September 15, 2025, it can run on all M-series Macs and the last generation of Intel-powered Macs from 2019, but the older Macs donât get all the new features. Read on to find out exactly which Macs are supported by each version of the Mac operating system. For advice about installing macOS read: How to install macOS on your Mac and read our guide to every version of macOS released to find out about the latest version. macOS 26 Tahoe compatibility Apple There were fears that macOS Tahoe would not support any Intel-powered Macs â luckily this isnât the case, but Apple has confirmed this will be the last version of macOS to support Macs that donât run on Appleâs own silicon. Apple lists the following Macs as compatible with macOS 26 Tahoe and the Apple Intelligence-powered features: M-series Macs that run Tahoe MacBook Pro (M1 and later) MacBook Air (M1 and later) iMac (M1 and later) Mac mini (M1 and later) Mac Studio (M1 and later) Mac Pro (M1 and later) Intel Macs that run Tahoe These are the Intel Macs that run macOS Tahoe (but donât support Apple Intelligence): MacBook Pro (Intel, 13âinch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) MacBook Pro (Intel, 16âinch, 2019) Mac Pro (Intel, 2019) iMac (Intel, mid 2020) Macs that donât run Tahoe The following Macs that were supported by 2024âs macOS Sequoia, and any that are older than these, are not able to run Tahoe: iMac (Intel, 2019) iMac Pro (Intel, 2017) Mac mini (Intel, 2018) MacBook Pro (Intel, 2018) macOS 15 Sequoia compatibility Which Macs run Sequoia? All the M-series Macs!Apple Sequoia (macOS 15) became available on Tuesday, September 16, 2024.

Can I install an older OS on my Mac? Officially, the operating system that was available on your Mac at the time that you bought it is the oldest version of macOS that can run on that Mac. Itâs likely that an older OS wonât include the necessary drivers for the hardware on newer Macs. For this reason, it is unlikely that you will be able to install an older version of macOS on a new Macâbut you can take a look at how to install old versions of macOS or OS X for other Macs. Owners of Macs with M-series chips (sometimes referred to as Apple Silicon) wonât be able to run older versions of macOS that werenât designed for Apple Silicon Macs which use a different architecture, known as ARM, instead of X-86. But it may not just be a case of wanting to know if your Mac can run the newest operating system. You might also want to know if it is possible to downgrade your Mac to an older version of macOS and need to know the oldest version of macOS you can use. Youâll also find that information below. You can also see a complete list of all the different versions of macOS and Mac OS X. Not sure which Mac you own? Check our article about how to identify your Mac.

Apple is still issuing security updates for Ventura, the most recent was 13.7.8 in August 2025, this may be the last Ventura update now Tahoe is here, as Apple tends to only support the past two versions with security updates.

Macworld New MacBook with A19 Pro: In summary Rumors have circulated in recent years that Apple has a large iMac in the works, but the company has never settled on whether to actually ship it. Reports stated that the large iMac could ship in 2025. The large iMac has been rumored to sport a display thatâs an upgrade from the LED monitor in the standard iMac. Prior to March 2022, Apple sold two sizes of its iMac desktop computer. The smaller-screened model was more suited to home users due to its less powerful processor, while the larger 27-inch model, with more speed, higher-end features, and high-res display, was meant to be powerful enough for more demanding users. When Apple introduced the 24-inch iMac in 2021 with a colorful redesign and M1 chip, it was the beginning of the end for the high-end version. First Apple discontinued the iMac Pro, and a year later introduced the Mac Studio with the 27-inch Studio Display in March 2022, and discontinued the 27-inch iMac at the same time. But the story doesnât end there. Ever since it was retired, there have been rumors that Apple has plans to introduce a new version of the iMac Pro that would also mark the return of the 27-inch iMacâalthough it could have an even bigger screen, perhaps 32-inches! In this article, weâll evaluate the reports that suggest that Apple could revive the old brand with a brand-new iMac Pro. Read on to find out when it could launch and what features it might offer. Is there even a need for a new iMac Pro now the Mac Studio has arrived? We think there will always be room for a pro desktop with a large screen built in. See: How the iMac Pro could come out of retirement to dominate the desktop. iMac Pro: Will it happen? The rumors that Apple would revive the iMac Pro have been circulating for years. Back in October 2021, in a tweet that is no longer online, retired Apple leaker Dylan made predictions about an iMac Pro. Clearly, Dylan was incorrect about the timing of his prediction, but even if we discount him, others have also claimed that Apple is working on a new iMac Pro. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo made predictions about a new iMac Pro back in March 2022. Suggesting that Apple would ship an iMac Pro in 2023. However, that prediction came just before Apple introduced the Mac Studio and removed the 27-inch iMac from the lineup. [Updated]2023: Mac Pro, iMac Pro and Mac mini https://t.co/NiloxXy0jvâ éæé€ (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) March 11, 2022 Kuo had been quiet about the new iMac, until October 18, 2023, when he tweeted that a 32-inch iMac could arrive in 2025. New iMac prediction update:1. 24-inch iMac refresh in 2024.2. Higher-end 32-inch mini LED display iMac in 2025. https://t.co/l7jzEecwZiâ éæé€ (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) October 17, 2023 Itâs not only Kuo who sees a larger iMac in Appleâs future. Bloombergâs Mark Gurman wrote in April 2022 (after the launch of the Mac Studio): âFor those asking, I still think an iMac Pro is coming. It just wonât be anytime soon.â In June 2023, Gurman mentioned the larger iMac again. He claimed that Apple âis also conducting early work on an iMac with a screen over 30 inches.â And towards the end of October 2023, Gurman wrote that the larger iMac, although âtabledâ a while back âdue to cost concernsâ, was never âcanceledâ. Predicting: âThis larger model is still poised to follow the 24-inch one, coming in either late 2024 or 2025.â There is evidence that development was even at the prototype stage before being put on hold: In July 2022, a report on MacRumors, based on information shared by a source to a forum member (so we canât vouch for its accuracy) suggested that âApple prototyped at least three larger iMac models with Apple silicon chipsâ back in 2021. If these reports are true, Apple has been working on a replacement for the 27-inch iMac (and iMac Pro) for some time, and yet nothing has materialized. It seems that there are difficulties that are leading to delays. In December 2022, Gurman indicated that the iMac Pro had been delayed, citing (as with the new Mac Pro) high development costs and difficulties engineering chips as the cause of the delay. In his first newsletter of 2023, Gurman also wrote that the iMac Pro âhas been on and off Appleâs road mapâ, and that âI would be surprised at this point if it arrives in 2023â. iMac Pro: Release date 2025, according to Bloombergâs Mark Gurman and analyst Mink Chi Kuo Kuoâs tweet that Apple will ship a âHigher-end 32-inch mini LED display iMac in 2025,â indicates that this could be the year the new, larger iMac finally arrives. When Gurman referred to the big iMac in July 2023, he claimed that the 32-inch iMac has entered the early testing phase of development and suggested that while it could launch in late 2024, we could be waiting until 2025. In an October 2023 newsletter, Gurman reiterated this, writing: âThis larger model is still poised to follow the 24-inch one, coming in either late 2024 or 2025.â If the new 27-inch iMac (or larger) arrives in 2025, that will be three years after the equivalent model was discontinued. Thatâs a long hiatus. However, the end of 2025 is fast approaching, and Apple doesnât usually release new Macs in December. No reports have been made as to the status of this iMac. iMac Pro: Design and colors A four-year-old report said the iac Pro could have a similar design to the current iMac. No color options have been reported. In a July 31, 2021 newsletter, Bloombergâs Mark Gurman suggested that the new iMac Pro will have âa similar design to the current M1 iMac.â It makes sense that the iMac Pro will borrow some of its design inspiration from the 24-inch iMac. Apple offers the 24-inch iMac in several color choices, but there havenât been reports on what color choices Apple will use for the iMac Pro. To create a differentiation between the consumer and pro levels, Apple may decide on different color choices, as with the iPhone Pro, or stick with the traditional shades. The next large iMac Pro will probably look nothing like the current 27-inch model (right) and more like the 24-inch iMac (left).Apple Another difference we could see on the larger iMac is dark bezels rather than a white border around the screen. There may also be a notch, as there is with the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro. This could allow Apple to extend the height of the screen as it has with these models. Weâd also like to see the iMac Pro lose some of its âchin.â Based on teardowns of the iMac and the Studio Display, and the low power and heat requirements of Apple silicon, a chinless iMac Pro could be possible. iMac Pro: Display size 27- or 32-inches have been reported Upgrade over the current LED display in the iMac Display analyst Ross Young and others had stated that the iMac Pro will have a 27-inch display, the same as the predecessor, which is a little disappointing. However, in June 2023, Bloombergâs Mark Gurman indicated that he had information suggesting that Apple is developing an iMac with a screen larger than 30 inches. He then elaborated further a few weeks later, suggesting that a 32-inch iMac is reportedly in testing. In October 2023, he reiterated that the new iMac Pro âwill have a 32-inch display, making it the biggest iMac in Appleâs history.â Currently, the 32-inch Pro Display XDR is Appleâs largest display. Kuo agrees that this new, larger iMac could have a 32-inch display, as per his October tweet. Neither Kuo nor Gurman expands on the screen specs, but it will presumably have ProMotion and XDR (Extreme Dynamic Range). A larger display would certainly make the iMac Pro more attractive to potential buyers. Next to the 24-inch iMac, with its 4.5K display (4480 by 2520 pixels), the 27-inch iMac only looks slightly more impressive with its 5K display (5120 by 2880 pixels). But itâs not only the 24-inch iMac that the iMac Pro will be compared to. The 27-inch screen also doesnât compare particularly favorably with many modern displays that are larger than 30 inches (including the 32-inch, 6K Apple Pro Display XDR). Appleâs Pro Display XDR is a 32-inch 6K display.IDG Gurman has previously predicted that the 27-inch iMac could see its display size increase by a similar amount to the 24-inch iMac: âI absolutely still believe that a larger, redesigned iMac to replace the Intel 27-inch models is en route. Apple increasing the screen size of the smaller model from 21.5 inches to 24 inches seems to indicate that the 27-inch model could see a size increase as well,â he wrote in July 2021. A larger display could be possible without increasing the size of the iMac significantly. The 27-inch iMac measured 25.6 inches wide, 20.3 inches tall, and 8 inches deep, and Appleâs new design helps make the 24-inch iMac smaller than even the 21.5-inch iMac it replaced (21.5 by 18.1 by 5.8 inches versus 20.8 by 17.7 by 6.9 inches). Apple could also incorporate a notch into the top of the screen to accommodate the FaceTime camera, thereby reducing the size of the bezel at the top of the screen. The new iMac Pro wouldnât actually need to be as big as the Pro Display XDR to offer a 6K display. A 30-inch display with smaller bezels could still accommodate the 6016 by 3384 pixels for Retina 6K resolution and a 6K iMac. In an October 2024 post on X, Kuo stated that the new iMac will have a 32-inch mini LED display, which would be an upgrade over the LED display used in the 24-inch iMac. To get an idea of what we could expect with the display in the larger iMac if Apple takes it beyond the Studio Display, we can look at how it compares to Appleâs Pro Display XDR. Pro Display XDR: 6K Retina display (6016-by-3384 resolution), 1000 nits (XDR) or 500 nits (SDR) brightness, wide color (P3), True Tone Studio Display: 5K Retina display (5120-by-,880 resolution), 600 nits, wide color (P3), True Tone The upcoming larger iMac is likely to have smaller bezels than the 27-inch iMac and iMac Pro, which could help the display reach a higher pixel density without having to make the display much bigger. A rumor by Ross Young in October 2021 and a follow-up report in December 2021 claimed that Apple would bring a Liquid Retina XDR display with âaround 1,000 zones and over 4,000 mini-LEDsâ to the iMac. That would be fewer than the 10,000 mini-LEDs in the iPad and the 8,000 mini-LEDs in the MacBook Pro, though it would likely be visually indistinguishable due to the size and viewing distance. The 27-inch iMac used to ship with standard glass on the front of the display, but (for $300) Apple offered a nano-texture glass that provided a matte-like finish and did a good job of cutting down glare. Apple will probably continue to offer this with the new iMac Pro. As you can see above, it dramatically cuts down on the gloss and glare. The 27-inch iMac has a nano-texture glass option (right) that does a better job of resisting glare and reflections.IDG iMac Pro: CPU and GPU The M5 Pro and Max are expected in the MacBook Pro in early 2026, but no reports have been made about the iMac Pro. Bloombergâs Mark Gurman reported back in January 2022 that the iMac Pro would have âsimilar chips to the M1 Pro and M1 Max processors inside of the MacBook Pro.â That rumor came before the launch of the Mac Studio, which did ship with M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, so it seems likely that Gurmanâs source was referring to that machine. With the M5, M4 Pro, and M4 Max already on the market, we can get some idea of what to expect from a larger iMac. It could feature the M4 Pro, which offers a 12- or 14-core CPU and 16- or 20-core GPU. Will this iMac only offer the M4 Pro, or will it offer the M4 Max too? Itâs unclear, but the expectation is that Apple will differentiate the Mac Studio and Mac Pro from the iMac Pro by offering just the M4 Pro with that model, as it does with the Mac mini. The M4 Max offers a 14- or 16-core CPU and 32- or 40-core GPU. Apple is expected to release the M5 Pro and M5 Ma MacBook Pro in the first half of 2026. Apple could forego the M4 Pro and Max and go with M5 versions instead, but no reports have been made regarding this. In April 2024, Gurman reported that the M4 chip rollout involved âiMacs.â Apple released only the M4 24-inch iMac. iMac Pro: RAM The standard configuration will follow whatever is planned for the M-series Pro and Max chips The M4 Pro can support up to 48GB of unified memory (up from 36GB) while the M4 Max can support up to 128GB. The 27-inch iMac did support up to 128GB RAM, so thatâs one reason why the new iMac Pro may support the M4 Max. The M4 Pro comes standard with 24GB unified memory; the M4 Max comes with 36GB as standard (previously 32GB). Other configurations include 48GB, 64GB, and 128GB. Apple is going to be releasing the M5 Pro and Max chips soon, but those chips are expected to have the same base RAM configurations as the M4 Pro and Max. One limitation of Appleâs RAM is that it will not be user-upgradable. The 27-inch iMac had RAM slots that were user-accessible. With Apple silicon, RAM (Apple calls it unified memory) is built into the SoC, so it is not user-upgradable. iMac Pro: Storage Apple typically sets the base SSD at 512GB or 1TB for its pro Macs. An October 2021 tweet from the now-retired account from âDylanâ suggested that there will be 512GB storage as standard with the new iMac (Pro). That would be an improvement on the 256GB offered by the entry-level 27-inch iMac prior to it being retired. It would follow the pattern of the 16-inch MacBook Pro, which has 512GB and 1TB options for the standard machines (and 8TB as a build-to-order option). iMac Pro: Ports and expansion Thunderbolt 5 is currently implemented in pro Macs. The 24-inch iMac comes with four Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports, and a headphone jack (the base $1,299 iMac has only two Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports). After Apple launched the MacBook Pro with HDMI and an SDXC card slot, rumors suggested the iMac would follow suit. The thin enclosure could be an issue, but Apple solved that issue on the 24-inch model by putting the headphone jack on the side. Apple could position the SD slot similarly to avoid making the iMac thicker. Thunderbolt 5 is now on the M4 Pro/Max MacBook Pro, so this would be included in an iMac Pro. Thunderbolt 5 offers double the bandwidth at 80 Gbps. Learn more about Thunderbolt 5. The iMac power adapter has an< ethernet port. Apple could do the same with an iMac Pro.Foundry For all but the entry-level 24-inch iMac, Apple placed the ethernet port in the power adapter brick. The same power adapter is likely to be used for the larger iMac as well. iMac Pro: Other features With the M4 iMac, Apple upgraded the camera to a 12-megapixel FaceTime camera with Center Stage support. It replaced the 1080p camera in the previous iMac. Apple would use the same 12MP camera in an iMac Pro. Weâd like to see the camera also support Face ID. True Depth references were spotted in macOS Big Sur, indicating that this was something Apple had looked at. However, no Mac has yet arrived with support for Face ID. If it doesnât have Face ID, the new iMac will have Touch ID built into the keyboard, that being offered with the 24-inch iMac and the Touch ID keyboards. Read: When will Face ID come to Mac? iMac Pro: Price As for the price, it will likely fall in line with the pricing of the 27-inch iMac, which started at $1,799, since Apple kept similar pricing to the 21.5-inch iMac when it launched the 24-inch model. Itâs also possible that the price will be a bit higher, perhaps starting at over $2,000, which would be more in line with Appleâs price increase for the higher-end MacBook Pro. The price is likely to be adjusted outside the U.S. in line with the exchange rates.08:35 amWidketKit extension Locale.autoupdatingCurrent.
