Brace yourselves, Mac enthusiasts—Apple might soon be saying goodbye to some old friends. According to whispers from the grapevine (or Bloomberg, as they say), macOS 26 is set to leave two hands full of Intel-based Macs in the dust.
If you own a 2018 MacBook Pro, a 2017 iMac Pro, a 2018 Mac mini, or a 2020 Intel-based MacBook Air, you might want to sit down for this. These models have been the stalwarts of the Apple community, but soon they could be as unsupported as a flip phone at a tech convention.
This development comes just as Apple is about to roll out its latest operating system—aptly named after a giant tree, “Sequoia.” Just like the majestic trees it’s named after, these Macs are getting a bit long in the trunk and are set for the chopping block.
So, what’s the takeaway? If your trusty Mac is on this list, it might be time to start scouting for a new model—or at least a brisk emotional support latte.
