Poll: *** The official Mac Studio 2023 thread (it has the M2 Ultra, up to 192 Gb RAM and everything!) ***

[Zeebedy]

What about the M4 Mac mini Pro?

How would this compare against the M2 Max studio?

The M4 wins some the M2 Max wins some. But you will be saving like £1,000.

I wouldn't be getting a Studio right now, I would wait for the next one.

I'm curious what people think the chances of an M4 Studio being released at WWDC in June? That was when the last two were released so it seems plausable.

We're long overdue an update for the studio/pro lineup.

That sounds interesting. I tried to find the article but couldn't find it. Do you have a link?

Edit: My bad. Was looking on the Bloomberg website.

Gurman has already been wrong about the MBA multiple times these last few weeks, the sooner people stop reading his absolute nonsense the better the world will be. Puts enough guesses in the air which my great-great-granny could predict and some of them land.

No surprise that Gurman got almost everything right..

After constantly gettings things wrong But as I say throwing enough fluff in the air some land.

I predict there will be an M5 chip too at some point, I am now a leading journalist

I'm tempted with that M4 max. It's all I would need to buy with no other ports and adpaters compared to if I got the m4 mini. I love my M1 mini but the lack of built in ports is annoying and good hubs cost hundreds anyway.

 

[Cromulent]

Hmm. £480 trade in for my M1 Max. Less that £2k for M4 Max with 1TB SSD.

Why is it M3 Ultra? Where is M4 Ultra?

I've been thinking about this a fair bit. My original plan was to upgrade to the new Ultra model but after thinking about things I'm just going to stick to my M1 Max. I rarely run out of resources I need (except SSD - I wish I had gone for the 1TB model) so I'm just going to wait and see what happens. If things change and I need more power I can always reevaluate.

 

[Donnie Fisher]

^^^ Similar thoughts. I'm hoping that the SSD upgrade kits will slowly become more common as time goes on.

up to 512GB ram with 16TB SSD, what a machine.
