Yesterday Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman detailed a years-long roadmap for upcoming Macs, and per his report, it sounds like two new models might skip the base M5 chip and go straight to M6.
New Mac mini and iMac models could bypass the base M5 chip in favor of M6
Apple currently sells several Macs that have not yet been updated to the M5 chip generation. While its laptops have moved to M5, desktops like the Mac Studio, Mac mini, and iMac are all stuck on the M4 generation.
And based on the latest Bloomberg report, it sounds like some of those desktops might skip M5 altogether—at least the base chip.
Per Mark Gurman, the new Mac mini currently in testing uses M6 and M5 Pro chips.
