Renders based on leaked information for the rumored "Mac Studio" have emerged, showing a taller Mac mini-like design and a new Apple display similar to the Pro Display XDR, both of which could be announced during the Tuesday Apple event.
Rumors have rapidly escalated surrounding Apple's potential new pro Mac called the "Mac Studio." After initial rumors began, some say it has been completed and may even be shown during the "Peek Performance" Apple Event.
According to AppleTrack, Luke Miani has details about the "Mac Studio" and worked with render artist Ian Zelbo, who has worked with Jon Prosser in the past. The renders show a monitor that takes inspiration from the 24-inch iMac and Pro Display XDR, and a small Mac mini-like device meant to be the new pro desktop Mac dubbed "Mac Studio."
The sources described the "Mac Studio" as resembling two Mac minis stacked on top of each other with silver sides, a white top, and rounded corners similar to the 14-inch MacBook Pro and 16-inch MacBook Pro. It is about 4 inches tall with a similar footprint to the Mac mini. This is similar to how the new Mac Pro was described in previous leaks.

The renders show a stand and design similar to Apple's existing 24-inch iMac.
Miani says the products may be announced during the Tuesday event, but Apple has been known to be "historically fluid" with release dates and announcements for new products. His leak accuracy has been middling so far, with a miss on the release window for AirPods 3, but nailing down details of the new MacBook Pro redesigns down to port specs.

Haven't his rumors ended with him falling flat on his face before?
The Mac Studio name was leaked before he leaked this, the rest as a taller Mac Mini could be a good guess, but I haven't seen Luke prove to have good insider sources
Looking forward to learning more about the display.
Nothing has leaked, some dude has just made a mock up.
I don't know...maybe this will pan out, but I don't really get the market for this product. The new iMac is more than powerful enough for anything other than real pro video/photo/design use. It's sleek enough for pretty I am much more inclined to believe we'll see an updated 27" iMac.
And as for the market, I've been around here long enough to know that the Apple Nerds™ are always clamoring for a headless iMac. The thing is, they seem to be the only ones. Anyone disagree? Maybe I'm missing it.
A headless Mac that is not a Mac mini really needs expandability. So a shorter, smaller version of the MacPro would be cool. An overweight Mac mini does not fit the bill.
