Apple iMac And MacBook Pro 2017 Might Not Release in 2017, Here is The Reason!

After reports about the Apple's upcoming iMac And MacBook Pro 2017 are coming this year, here comes another round of rumors which says otherwise. According to the new buzz, the highly-anticipated new versions of the iMac and Macbook Pro will most probably be introduced in 2018.

The cause of the further delay in the iMac And MacBook Pro 2017 is Intel's Cannon Lake processor. According to Apple Insider, Intel will possibly release its new 10 nanometer processors later than thought. This rumor emerged when Intel's president of PC, Internet of Things & chip design, Venkata Renduchintala has hinted that the said processor has encountered some development issues and its production will likely be delayed.

Renduchintala has also addressed that it was difficult to pinpoint a particular date for the release of Cannon Lake processor. The Intel executive has also cleared that the said processor can either come before 2017 ends or even at the start of next year.

However, for Apple and its fans, this development will affect the production of the iMac And MacBook Pro 2017. The two Apple products are likely to utilize the Cannon Lake chips though there were recent rumors saying the tech giant is leaning on using AMD's new Ryzen processors instead.

As per the PC World, Apple and other manufacturers required some time to test the processors on their devices before they are official. According to reports, the mass production of the Cannon Lake processors will now commence sometime during the second half of 2017. This basically means the delay in the Cannon Lake chip's release will most possibly push the release of the iMac And MacBook Pro 2017 to next year.

The iMac And MacBook Pro 2017 will be more power efficient and will sport a slicker and slimmer design. In spite of the delay for its forthcoming launch, fans of the MacBook Pro 2017 will surely be looking forward to this new line of devices.
