Apple enthusiasts anticipating the latest changes to the Mac lineup may need to reconsider their expectations as they face potential delays. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman in his recent Power On newsletter, a widespread memory shortage is impacting two highly awaited devices: the touch-screen MacBook Pro and the Mac Studio.
Touch-Screen MacBook Pro Could Be Delayed Until 2027

Mac Studio Likely Facing Delays as Well
Memory Shortage: A Widespread Challenge
It seems that we are not just witnessing price increases due to the memory shortage; we are now also seeing significant delays in the release of products that Apple hasn’t even officially announced yet. The Mac lineup, which often features higher memory options, is particularly affected.
Consider Buying Now
If you’re in the market for a Mac today, the M5 MacBook Pro remains an excellent choice. However, if you are specifically keen on the upcoming touch-screen redesign, be prepared for a longer wait and potentially higher prices when it does eventually launch.
