As the M2 Mac mini arrived over two years after the first M1 model. Gurman suspects Apple doesn’t believe the Mac mini needs annual or more regular refreshes, unlike some other Mac models like the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros.

Additionally, the report also revealed that the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro won’t be in the October releases. Since they’re going to use the M3 Pro and M3 Max chips. Most likely, these devices will launch in mid-2024.
