Everything Apple stopped selling in March. See the list.

March was a busy month for Apple. The company introduced a wave of new hardware, quietly pulled a long list of older products from its store, and — in two cases — killed off entire product lines without a direct replacement.

It was the kind of housecleaning that Apple does periodically and with minimal fanfare, but this round carried more weight than usual.

So here's what's been discontinued by Apple:

Mashable Light Speed

What's gone

  • iPhone 16e

  • 11-inch and 13-inch M3 iPad Air

  • 13-inch and 15-inch M4 MacBook Air

  • 14-inch and 16-inch M4 MacBook Pro (Pro and Max configurations)

  • Apple Studio Display (2022)

  • AirPods Max (USB-C)

  • Pro Display XDR (no direct replacement)

  • Mac Pro (entire product line retired)

Apple discontinued the Pro Display XDR, its 32-inch 6K reference monitor that had been a fixture of professional workstations since 2019. The new Studio Display XDR is the closest thing to a successor — but it tops out at 27 inches and 5K resolution, a step back on both counts despite its mini-LED technology and higher refresh rates.

Additionally, according to 9to5Mac, Apple has retired the entire Mac Pro product line — ending what was once the flagship machine for creative and scientific professionals. The writing had been on the wall for some time: the Mac Studio had already outpaced the M2 Ultra Mac Pro in raw performance before Apple even got around to updating it. So, the Mac Pro's death was inevitable.

What does 'discontinued' actually mean for your device?

Discontinued and obsolete are not the same thing, and the gap between them is worth understanding. When Apple pulls a product from its store, that hardware enters a kind of purgatory — it may still be serviceable through Apple and authorized repair shops for years, depending on where you live. Eventually, after five years, it graduates to Apple's Vintage list, and then, further down the road, to the Obsolete designation. Once a device hits Obsolete, Apple and its repair network are under no obligation to fix it.

Apple moves products through that pipeline on its own timeline, with little notice. The original iPhone SE landed on the Obsolete list late last year — nearly a decade after it launched as Apple's first serious attempt at an affordable iPhone. It was not alone: several second-generation iPad Pro models and a pair of Apple Watch Series 4 variants made the same journey around the same time. The devices Apple stopped selling this month are just beginning that process.
