Apple's WWDC 2024 event on June 10 finally focused on the operating system glow-ups that'll sit behind the screens of most Macs released in the past few years.

MacOS 15, officially dubbed MacOS Sequoia, doesn't have an official release date yet, but typical timelines from the developer conference in years past point to beta availability across the summer leading up to official release in September or October 2024. Apple did, however, release the official list of the devices that will be compatible with Sequoia, with eligibility mostly hinging on the year the device was made.

Which Macs will run Sequoia?

  • MacBook Pro — 2018 and later

  • MacBook Air — 2020 and later

  • iMac — 2019 and later

  • iMac Pro — 2017 and later

  • Mac Studio — 2022

  • Mac Mini — 2018 and later

  • Mac Pro — 2019 and later

So really, two MacBook Airs (the 2018 and 2019 models) are the only devices cut between Sequoia and Sonoma, Apple's 2023 MacOS drop.

Whether you're still rocking the Touch Bar on your 2020 Pro or gave into the M3 MacBook Pro hype, MacOS Sequoia will likely be at your fingertips come fall. Enjoy clutch iPhone mirroring (and phone control) directly from your desktop or laptop, tiled apps, a more streamlined (and less distracting) Safari experience, serious new gaming options, and Apple's new in-house password manager.

Of course, Apple isn't immune to the pull of AI (that's Apple Intelligence to you), as MacOS Sequoia has also been sprinkled with magic machine learning dust from ChatGPT to enhanced Siri commands.
