Rumor: Apple is coming with a smaller Mac Pro and colored iMac models
Analyst Jon Prosser claims that Apple is coming with a smaller Mac Pro. The company would also release a redesigned iMac that will be available in several colors. Both computers are expected to receive an Apple Silicon chip.
The new Mac Pro model would have a smaller, cube-shaped housing, Jon Prosser reports on his YouTube channel Front Page Tech. Prosser often publishes information about unannounced Apple products. He correctly predicted the announcement of the iPhone SE.
The design of this new Mac Pro computer is said to be based on the Apple G4 cases, which are the size of “three to four Mac Minis stacked on top of each other.” The top of the housing would function as a heatsink, while the bottom of the ‘Mac Pro Mini’ contains a compute unit. Prosser also publishes a concept render of the PC.

Prosser further claims that Apple is redesigning its iMac computers this year, in line with previous rumors. The computers would have a flatter design with smaller screen edges. The new iMacs would also use the same colors as the fourth-generation iPad Air, which Apple introduced last year. This would mean that the computers will be available in rose gold, green and light blue variants, in addition to the more traditional silver and space gray models.
