Supply chain starts shipping displays for the fall M4 MacBook Pro update

MacBook Pro

Rumors haven’t been able to nail down when an M4 MacBook Pro refresh would occur, but display shipments from the supply chain could indicate an impending announcement in the fall.

The rumor mill believes that Apple will be bringing out a bunch of M4 updates to its Mac lineup this fall. While there’s no guarantee that all speculated models will get their chip upgrades, it seems that one product family has a good chance of making an appearance.

According to a now-deleted post to X by Display Supply Chain Consultants CEO Ross Young on Thursday, panel shipments started in July and August for the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro.

Young adds that a Q4 launch for the M4-equipped models “makes sense” based on these shipments. This is a fairly good assumption, given the months-long component lead time for a MacBook Pro refresh.

The analyst’s comments also give hope to other Mac models also getting their fall updates, possibly in a September or October event.
