These Mac models will no longer receive any updates after macOS 26, it's official

Apple used its WWDC conference to announce the end of support for certain Mac models. The next version of macOS, Tahoe, will therefore be the last update they will receive. Here are which ones they are.

WWDC is over. On June 9, 2025, Apple held its big annual conference during which it presented not new devices, but upcoming changes to its software operating systems. This was an opportunity to confirm the simplification of their nomenclature. Goodbye iOS 19, visionOS 3, and other different numbers. From now on, all future versions will take the 2 digits of the year following their release. In 2025, iOS 26 will be released with all its new features.

The next iteration of macOS also received a proper presentation. It will be called macOS Tahoe and will usher in the graphical overhaul desired by the Cupertino company. But that's not all. Apple took the opportunity to announce the list of Macs that will no longer receive macOS updates after macOS Tahoe, which is coming in the second quarter of 2025. Check if yours is among them.

Apple will no longer support these Macs after macOS Tahoe

First, here is the list of all Macs compatible with macOS Tahoe according to Apple:

• Mac Pro (2019 and later)
• 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019)
• 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020, version with four Thunderbolt 3 ports)
• MacBook Pro with Apple silicon (2020 and later)
• MacBook Air with Apple silicon (2020 and later)
• Mac mini (2020 and later)
• Mac Studio (2022 and later)
• iMac (2020 and later)

Among them, those with an Intel processor will no longer be supported by Apple after the arrival of macOS 26. The manufacturer definitely wants to turn the page on its partnership in favor of its in-house chips arriving in 2021. It had already started by reserving certain features for Macs equipped with a Silicon M1 Pro or M1 Max processor.

Similarly, Rosetta 2, which allows Intel applications to run on devices with an Apple Silicon chip, will be removed with the release of macOS 27 in 2 years. However, the manufacturer confirms that despite the end of support for Intel-based Macs, they will still receive security updates for 3 years from the release of macOS Tahoe, i.e. until 2029.
