What's included:

  • Mac Studio
  • Power Lead
  • M5 Ultra chip—Unlock extreme performance for demanding work tasks with M5 Ultra, which fuses two M5 Max chips into one. Get a boost with a next-generation CPU, a more powerful GPU with third-generation ray tracing and a Neural Accelerator built into each GPU core. Teams can train AI models, dispatch coding agents or run computational fluid dynamics
  • Memory and storage—Ideal for developers, researchers and creative pros alike. Get 512GB unified memory and up to 1.2TB/s memory bandwidth for more speed when processing massive datasets, complex 3D scenes and inference in AI workflows. And up to 2x faster storage1 expedites tasks like dense file transfers and loading large projects
  • A powerful platform for AI—Apple silicon, and every major component that powers it, is designed to run demanding AI workflows like using frontier-class LLMs, directly on device. With Mac Studio, teams can complete AI tasks locally, reserving token budget for projects that require cloud models
  • Secure by design—Apple silicon helps protect even the most sensitive business data like IP and PII, so it remains private and on device. And it’s easy for IT teams to manage devices with native support for device management solutions
  • Powerful connections—Create a cluster so teams can run frontier-class AI models, or connect up to eight external displays with the six Thunderbolt 5 ports and ultra-high bandwidth. There’s also two USB-A ports, an HDMI port, an SDXC card slot and a headphone jack. With the Apple-designed N1 wireless chip for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6
  • Fits right on your desk—The compact 7.7-inch-square Mac Studio fits perfectly under most displays. And an advanced thermal system lets employees and their AI agents fly through intensive work tasks while keeping Mac Studio quiet, so it never interferes with workflows
  • Robust macOS—macOS runs apps lightning fast with its advanced operating system. It features Siri AI,2 a capable assistant with personal context understanding and broad world knowledge, and Apple Intelligence3 seamlessly integrated into everyday apps and experiences. And with window tiling, Sidecar and more, employees can stay productive
  • Mac + iPhone—Mac works like magic with other Apple devices. Easily initiate AI tasks from your iPhone for your Mac Studio, enabling the same productivity, whether you’re at your desk or on the go

1 Testing conducted by Apple in July 2026 using preproduction Mac Studio systems with Apple M5 Ultra, 36-core CPU, 80-core GPU and 512GB of unified memory, as well as production Mac Studio systems with Apple M3 Ultra, 32-core CPU, 80-core GPU and 512GB of unified memory, and Mac Studio systems with Apple M1 Ultra, 20-core CPU, 64-core GPU and 128GB of unified memory, all configured with 8TB SSD. Tested with FIO 3.42, 1024KB request size, 10GB test file and IO depth=8. Mac Studio systems tested with an attached 5K display. Performance tests are conducted using specific computer systems and reflect the approximate performance of Mac Studio.

2 Siri AI will be available in beta later this year and requires an Apple Intelligence–enabled device set to a supported language. Available in English to start.

3 Apple Intelligence is available with Siri and device language set to Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish or Vietnamese. Some features may not be available in all regions or languages. Some devices may not be available in all regions.
