Apple's next-generation M5 chip will debut in the MacBook Pro in the fall, followed by the iPad Pro sometime in the first half of 2026.

Apple's M5 chip is coming to the MacBook Pro first later this year, with the iPad Pro to follow in 2026. Here are all the details on this.

But according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, this won’t be repeated for the M5 chip. In the Post Game Q&A section of his latest Power On newsletter, Gurman states the transition to M5 chips will begin in the fall of 2025 in new MacBook Pro models, with the iPad Pro not getting the same treatment until the first half of 2026.

The M5 MacBook Pro is important, and not just because of its power. And while it’s coming sooner than we thought, it’s not coming soon enough. Let me explain.
