Until Apple officially confirms it, it's still just speculation based on certain leaks, but recently these rumors are really coming true. It is therefore quite likely that we will see new MacBook Airs with the M3 chip at WWDC. But what about the Mac Pro? 

According to the website AppleTrack the leader of all leaks is Ross Young with 92,9% accuracy, but in the frequency of his predictions he cannot match Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who had an 86,5% success rate for his claims last year. It is he who states that Apple wants to introduce its 13 and 15" MacBook Airs in the period between the end of spring and the beginning of summer, which clearly corresponds to the date of the WWDC developer conference.

After all, this situation would copy last year's situation, when Apple presented a redesigned 13" MacBook Air with an M2 chip (and a 13" MacBook Pro). However, this year's series should already be equipped with its successor, i.e. the M3 chip, although there was a lot of talk about whether the larger model would get a more affordable M2, which now seems rather unlikely.

When will Mac Pro and Mac Studio arrive? 

It is rather unlikely that Apple will introduce MacBooks alongside its most powerful workstation in the form of the Mac Pro, for which we are still waiting in vain, because it is the last representative of Intel processors in the company's offer. Last year, Apple showed us its Mac Studio, which is configurable with the M1 Max and M1 Ultra chips, so now it would be easy for us to finally see a Mac Pro with the M2 Ultra chip, which Apple has not yet presented to us.

With the 14 and 16" MacBook Pros, which Apple introduced in the form of a press release in January of this year, we have just learned the capabilities and features of the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, while the Ultra could logically come with the Mac Studio, but its arrival is not expected. According to all forecasts, the company will not update each of its computer models with each chip generation, which can be evidenced by the 24" iMac, which only has an M1 chip available, and we also expect it to be upgraded directly to the M3. 

So the Mac Studio with the M3 Ultra could come next spring, when the imaginary pinnacle of Apple's desktop portfolio would now be taken over by the Mac Pro, the most equipped machine the company has ever created. But if we don't get it at WWDC, it leaves room for the April Keynote. Apple also held it in 2021, for example, and showed the M1 iMac here.

If Apple then switched to presenting "less" important products only in the form of printed matter, this would certainly not be the case with the Mac Pro. This machine may not be a bestseller, but it clearly shows the vision of a company that also cares deeply about it, and it would be a shame to lose the story of how it achieved what it did with it. MacBooks, where Apple doesn't come up with much in terms of updating the chip, would be more likely to see the press.
