Its been a few years since weve had any considerable update or upgrade to Apples Mac Pro.
Almost a year ago, however, Apple acknowledged the outcry for support of the Mac Pro by teasing that its working on a modular and upgradeable Mac Pro for 2019.Apple then backed this statement up with a press release for the new iMac Pro sale date in December 2017.
So, we know that a Mac Pro is coming, but sadly we wont see it until 2019.So, we know approximately when were getting the Mac Pro 2019, but what will it look like given its modular nature What will you be able to upgrade Will it look like a beefed up HomePodBefore we dive into these details over the next year or so, we need to lay out the basics.Cut to the chaseWhat is it Apples first dedicated desktop since 2013When is it out Early 2019 at the earliest most likelyWhat will it cost Likely as much as if not more than current modelsMac Pro 2019 release dateNow, while the new Mac Pro used to be the one Apple product we actually knew with absolute certainty could have been released in 2018, we were mistaken.
It turns out the new Mac Pro has been confirmed for a 2019 release date.The current Mac Pro computer debuted at the June 2013 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), with a December 2013 final release date.
