While Apple has yet to officially unveil new MacBooks featuring the M4 series of SoCs, recent leaks from the well-known insider ShrimpApplePro suggest that M4-powered laptops are already in circulation. The same tipster recently shared additional photos of what appears to be a 14-inch MacBook Pro equipped with the Apple M4 chip.
According to ShrimpApplePro, these new MacBook Pros are purportedly available for purchase, albeit through an unnamed private Facebook group. Among the images shared on the post, one shows the front view of the supposed M4-powered laptop, which seems to retain the same design as the Space Gray 2023 MacBook Pro currently priced at $1,299 on various online retailers. This suggests that Apple hasn’t altered the exterior design.
Interestingly, the retail box in the leaked images indicates that the base model will come with 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB storage configuration. This marks a significant upgrade from the previous model, which had a base option with only 8 GB of unified memory.
No additional details were provided in ShrimpApplePro’s latest post, leaving the name of the Facebook group and the pricing of this elusive MacBook Pro undisclosed.
These leaks align with earlier reports from August indicating that MacBook Pros with the Apple M4 series SoCs had entered mass production. Rumors are also swirling that Apple plans to hold a launch event later this month, during which the company is expected to introduce the new laptops along with updated iPads.
