Apple is reportedly working on new MacBook Pro models featuring the next-generation M5 chip, with mass production already underway. A South Korean media report indicates that these devices might launch by late 2025. However, the MacBook Air version with the M5 chip could arrive later.

At the end of 2024, we heard reports that Apple’s 2025 release schedule includes an M5-based iPad Pro and MacBook Pro. According to a new report, it looks like those products are right on schedule. ETnews (Korean) reports that the fabrication of Apple’s M5 chip has been in the packaging stage since January, a crucial step toward mass production.
