Apple Studio Display Firmware References Unreleased Mac Mini

Apple's new Studio Display has references to an unreleased Mac mini in its firmware, according to developer Steve Troughton-Smith.

In a tweet today, Troughton-Smith said that he's spotted references to a Macmini10,1. He believes this is likely the rumored M2 Mac mini.

The rumor mill is a little unclear as to what new Macs are imminent; for what it’s worth, there is one concrete clue: the shipping Studio Display firmware references one unaccounted-for mystery machine — a new model generation of Mac mini (“Macmini10,1”). My guess: M2, not M1 Pro


Recent reports have suggested that Apple is preparing two new Macs for release in mid-2022. One of those is likely a new MacBook Air; however, speculation has been rampant on whether Apple will also unveil a new low-end MacBook Pro, a new Mac mini, an iMac Pro, or even the much anticipated Mac Pro. Analysts even disagree on the processor that Apple will use with Ming-Chi Kuo saying the new MacBook Air will still use an M1 processor.

We're hoping that Apple will unveil new hardware during WWDC 2022 which is scheduled for June 6 to June 10. Please download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for more updates.
