The Mac Studio M5 is Apple’s professional desktop, offered with the M5 Max or the M5 Ultra. Apple lists it as available from 22 September 2026. MacUAE supplies it new in Dubai with Apple’s one-year warranty, serial-checked against Apple before handover, and you can inspect it before you pay.
Chip: Apple M5 Max, or Apple M5 Ultra · Apple lists the M5 Mac Studio as available from 22 September 2026. Specifications confirmed from Apple’s UAE site. Updated August 2026.
M5 Max or M5 Ultra
The Studio exists for sustained professional work — the kind that would make a laptop throttle within minutes. The two configurations are far apart, and the gap is the whole decision.
- M5 Max — an 18-core CPU, up to a 40-core GPU, up to 128GB of unified memory and a 16-core Neural Engine.
- M5 Ultra — up to a 36-core CPU, up to an 80-core GPU, up to 512GB of unified memory and a 32-core Neural Engine.
Memory is the decision you cannot revisit. If your work involves large video timelines, 3D scenes or local AI models, the memory ceiling matters more than the core count.
Should you buy this new, or buy used?
Buy new if you need the memory ceiling or the support window. If the workload is demanding but not extreme, a used M4 Max or M3 Ultra Studio is a serious machine for meaningfully less — and more of them reach the market as the M5 ships.
MacUAE is primarily a verified pre-owned Mac dealer, so we are in an unusual position to answer that honestly — we sell both. See the used Mac Studio range, or ask us to quote the new and used option side by side in one reply.
What you get from MacUAE
New units carry Apple’s standard one-year hardware warranty, and MacUAE adds the same pre-delivery checks used on every Mac we sell: serial confirmed against Apple, Activation Lock verified off and Apple Diagnostics run before handover.
- Trade-in against it. We buy Macs as well as selling them, so your current machine can go straight against this one and you settle the difference. See sell your Mac in Dubai.
- Collect or delivered. Walk in to Concord Tower, Office 45, Dubai Media City, or take same-day delivery across Dubai and next-day to the other emirates.
- Inspect before you pay. Test the machine in person or at your door before any money changes hands — the same rule that applies to every Mac we sell.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Mac Studio M5 available in Dubai?
Apple lists the M5 Mac Studio as available from 22 September 2026. Email info@macuae.com to be quoted ahead of availability, and we will confirm timing for your configuration honestly rather than promise a date we cannot hold.
M5 Max or M5 Ultra — which do I need?
The M5 Max covers most professional video, design and development work. The M5 Ultra earns its cost when the memory ceiling is the constraint — very large video timelines, heavy 3D scenes, or running sizeable AI models locally. Memory is the specification you cannot change later, so size it for the work.
Is a used Mac Studio worth considering instead?
Yes, for many buyers. A used M4 Max or M3 Ultra Studio remains a very capable professional machine and costs considerably less. More of them come to market as the new generation ships — we will quote both so the comparison is real rather than theoretical.
Does the Mac Studio include a display?
No. The Studio is the computer alone; the display is separate. Budget for it, and tell us how many screens you intend to drive so we can confirm the configuration supports them.
