A new report claims that after the M4 MacBook Air arrives this year, it’s full speed ahead for the M5 rollout.

Alongside the $260 price drop on Apple’s 24GB 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro, we also spotted a relatively rare shot at a refurbished M4 iPad Pro at $400 off the going rate – this is the 256GB Wi-Fi + Cell model – as well as a straight up $150 discount on the most affordable M4 iMac.

Apple is set to roll out its M5 chip across its Mac lineup, but reports suggest the iPad Pro may not get the upgrade just yet.
