Apple’s M2 Max MacBook Pro release delay finally makes sense
Until late October, we expected Apple to unveil new MacBook Pro models powered by M2 Max and M2 Pro chops. The refresh made sense for the 14-inch and 16-inch laptops, considering Apple's M-series release pattern. After the M2 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, the M2 Pro and Max should follow. But then the leaks and rumors changed tune. Apple supposedly delayed the release of these new laptops, moving the launch to early 2023.
With less than a week remaining in the year, we now may know why Apple postponed the MacBook Pro refresh. Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC will only start manufacturing its next-gen 3nm chips this week. The M2 Pro and Max System-on-Chip (SoC) models that Apple will be inside the 2023 MacBook Pros might be built on the next-gen process.
