As we reported last week, Apple is planning to launch a stack of M4-powered Macs later this year – including the Mac mini. And it seems that the Mac mini is among the desktop Macs that will be skipping the M3 processor: according to a new report the Mac mini, which was updated to the M2 and M2 Pro last year, is going to go straight from M2 to M4.
The report comes from Bloomberg's well connected Mark Gurman, who says that with the M4 imminent there simply isn't enough room to squeeze in an M3 refresh before the M4 Mac mini arrives. It's a prediction rather than a cold hard fact but Gurman says that "it's probably safe to say that those Mac desktops will skip the M3 generation."
