Apple has been working on its next-generation MacBook Pro devices for some time and the technology giant is expected to officially launch the new laptops, powered by the unannounced M1X chipset by Apple Silicon later this month.

Now, ahead of that, a prototype of the upcoming Apple MacBook Pro has leaked online, confirming the MacBook Pro model with serial number DVT-X88102C where DVT refers to Design Validation Testing (DVT), a prototyping stage before Production Validation Testing.

It has also been revealed that the device packs 32GB of RAM and the company is expected to offer up to 2TB of storage. The upcoming laptops are also expected to come with a revamped design.

The new M1X chipset from Apple, along with two new MacBook Pro models, have been reported to get launched in the past few months but it kept getting delayed because of the production issues and are now expected to go official in the coming weeks.

The upcoming Apple MacBook Pro models are expected to come with an all-new design and two display options — 14-inch and 16-inch, featuring a Mini-LED screen. They are expected to feature a flat-edged design, a MagSafe charging port, and a few more ports, including HDMI and an SD-card slot reader.

As for the M1X chipset, it could come packed with a 10-core CPU with eight high-performance cores and two energy-efficient cores, along with 16 or 32-core GPU options and support for up to 64GB RAM.

If the reports are to be believed, then Ruiyi Optoelectronics will be the exclusive supplier of the new Mini-LED panels while Quanta Computer will be responsible for the final assembly of the upcoming MacBook devices.

Apart from the MacBook, there are a few other Mac devices planned by Apple. Previously it was reported that soon after the MacBook Pro launch, the Cupertino-based tech giant could launch a new high-end Mac Mini, followed by a new iMac and Mac Pro next year.
