Apple may have leaked the Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR release month

This says "coming this fall" now, but it said something else earlier today. (credit: Apple)

Apple introduced two pricy and powerful pieces of pro-targeted hardware at its developer conference last month: the modular desktop tower Mac Pro, and the creative-focused Pro Display XDR. Although Apple said the devices would come this fall when discussing them during its keynote stage last week, the industry giant didn't get any more specific than that. But an apparent mistake in the Apple Store may have narrowed down the date.

Earlier today, MacRumors and 9to5Mac discovered that, when you clicked on the option to "Notify Me" of availability for the products, they were presented with text that said "coming in September." This was while other parts of the website all said "coming in the fall." Since the news broke, Apple quietly changed the copy in the "notify me" panel to also say "coming in the fall."

September would make sense as a narrower launch window. Apple often holds an event focused on the iPhone and Apple Watch around that time each year, so the company could announce final public availability of the Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR there.
