Probably 5 years, since it's still an Intel version at the moment which will be phased out for Mx based Mac. If you would buy the latest MBP 13" M1 I think at least 8 years.
- jeffbee 6y agoThat's just you hand-waving. Does Apple or any other computer maker offer an explicit end-of-updates policy?

- dep_b 6y agoWell it's based upon the previous architecture transitions they had as well as the average official support you get on most machines. Also the support is for current and last version so you can stick around at least another year on a fully supported previous version after you got cut off.
