Apple’s iMac Pro<\/a> refresh with a mini LED display and an Apple Silicon chip is coming in the summer of 2022 instead the spring, according to a display analyst. <\/p>\n

\n

Ross Young of Display Supply Chain Consultants on Monday said he no longer expects the upcoming iMac Pro refresh to launch in the spring of 2021. In a subsequent tweet, Young said that panel shipments will start in June but the Apple Silicon<\/a> iMac Pro itself may not launch until August or September. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As we reported in today’s DSCC Weekly, we no longer expect the Apple iMac Pro to launch in the spring. Looks more like summer. Still with a MiniLED backlight, but fewer MiniLEDs\/zones than in iPad\/MacBook Pro’s.<\/p>\n

Young added that the device will still use a mini-LED backlighting system but may feature fewer mini LED zones than in other Apple products like the iPad Pro<\/a> and MacBook Pro<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The display analyst, who has a good track record of reporting accurate information related to Apple, previously said that the mini LED-equipped iMac Pro could launch in the spring<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Earlier in January, a rumor from accurate leaker @dylandkt suggested that the new iMac Pro could sport a 12-core CPU configuration<\/a>. That device could also pack a design similar to the current 24-inch iMac, an I\/O that includes an SD card slot and HDMI port, and a starting price around $2,000. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The first iMac Pro was announced at a WWDC, and didn’t ship until the end of the year. It’s not clear what availability will be after announcement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
