Apple announced MacOS 26, named Tahoe, featuring new app additions, an enhanced Spotlight, and design updates influenced by the 'Liquid Glass' aesthetic. This update marks the final operating system for Intel-based Macs, after which no further updates will be provided for those devices. Some older MacBook models, specifically pre-2020 with Intel chips, will not support this update. Users with qualifying devices—including M1 Macs and select Intel models—will need to upgrade to stay updated during the device's lifecycle. Public release of MacOS 26 is set for September, with beta testing currently available.
MacOS 26, called Tahoe, will be Apple’s last operating system for Intel-based Macs, ending updates and support for these older devices after its release.
Not all Macs will support the new MacOS 26; pre-2020 Intel-based MacBooks will not be compatible, causing concern among users.
Included in MacOS 26 are new apps, a revamped Spotlight feature, and design changes reflecting Apple's 'Liquid Glass' aesthetic prevalent across its devices.
Eligible devices for MacOS 26 Tahoe support include Intel-based MacBook Pro models from 2019 and 2020, and Apple’s M1 MacBook Air and Pro.
