iMac Pro ‘currently unavailable’ in the US and Canada
Apple confirmed a couple of days ago that it was discontinuing the iMac Pro, noting online that it would sell its last remaining stock before fully removing the machine from its online store. Now, Apple is showing the iMac Pro as ‘currently unavailable’ in the US and Canada, while stock remains available elsewhere.
In Europe, Apple is showing the iMac Pro is available to ship between two to three weeks, whereas, in the US and Canada, the machine is unavailable through the online Apple Store and the Apple Store app, as well as from some official third-party retailers.
The iMac Pro was first announced in 2017, launching at the time as the ‘most powerful Mac ever’. It featured the first Space Gray casing on an iMac, a 5K built-in display, 8-core Xeon processors, Radeon Vega graphics, 32GB ECC memory, and 10GB Ethernet as well as four Thunderbolt 3 ports with support for up to two 5K displays, priced at $4999.
Apple quietly released an update to its iMac Pro, adding a new 256GB RAM and Radeon Pro Vega 64X graphics option to the machine in 2019 before lowering the price of its high-end storage upgrades a couple of months later.
While the iMac Pro is definitely on its way out, it’s unknown if the ‘currently unavailable’ tagline on the product in the US and Canada signals that all remaining stock has now fully sold out, or if possibly more stock will be available again soon before actually being removed from the online store for good.
Update: Apple has now returned the iMac Pro to its online store.
