Apple has discontinued its Mac Pro desktop, removing the M2 Ultra model from sale with no replacement planned. Fans have called the move the end of an era for the high-end machine. The decision comes after years of fitful development efforts.
Apple confirmed that the M2 Ultra Mac Pro is no longer available for purchase, as first reported by Ars Technica on March 27. The company stated no successor is in the works for the professional desktop workstation, which had undergone years of intermittent development before reaching this point. TechRadar noted that Apple fans declared the discontinuation the 'end of an era,' particularly highlighting a $700 accessory as the 'worst' Apple product ever. Some observers described Apple as 'asleep at the wheel' during the Mac Pro's troubled history. The Mac Pro, long positioned as Apple's top-tier desktop for creative professionals, faced criticism for its design and pricing over multiple iterations. This marks a significant shift in Apple's hardware lineup, though the company has not elaborated further on future pro-level desktops.
