Apple Mac is the company’s line of personal computers based on its macOS operating system. The Apple Mac lineup includes the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini, Mac Studio, and Mac Pro.

Apple operates in a PC market that must navigate fluctuating demand
Following strong growth through the pandemic as consumers and enterprises alike purchased new devices, the slowdown in the global economy has resulted in buyers delaying device upgrades. As a result, PC vendors are likely to focus on software and service provision upgrades while the market recovers, with more extensive hardware enhancements expected down the line. One example identified by journalists monitoring Mac developments could see Apple move to produce a touchscreen MacBook Pro in 2025.
