[Software] Does your Mac support macOS Tahoe 26? Here’s the full list of compatible MacBooks and Macs

[-CosmiNNe]

Apple has just revealed macOS Tahoe 26 at WWDC 2025 and as well as taking the wraps off the next incarnation of its desktop OS – known as Tahoe – the company gave us the scoop on hardware compatibility.

In other words, we now know which Macs will be good to run macOS Tahoe, and which Apple laptops and computers will be left out in the cold, stuck on the current version which is macOS Sequioa.

And as you might expect, continuing the trend set last year, more of Apple’s Macs with Intel CPUs are going to be barred from entry with macOS Tahoe.

As you might realize, this leaves some relatively new Mac hardware languishing in the land of macOS 15, never being able to make the leap to macOS 26.

Most notably, that includes some laptops from 2020. Namely the MacBook Air 2020 with an Intel CPU, and also the two-port model of the MacBook Pro 13-inch with an Intel processor. (The four-port MacBook Pro from 2020 is supported as it has a more recent Intel CPU, a 10th-gen chip as opposed to 8th-gen).

An oddity here is that the older MacBook Pro 16-inch from 2019 is actually supported by macOS Tahoe (as it has a newer 9th-gen Intel CPU), but all other models from that year are left in the lurch.
