Complete technical details on every Apple Mac categorized by common identifier types.
These identifiers have been carefully hand documented, one at a time, by EveryMac.com for decades when each Mac was introduced. Our original research includes hands-on inspection of the computers themselves, their packaging, and the pre-installed operating system.
Mac identifiers are further segmented below by series. This includes the MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini, and all other Mac lines.
EveryMac.com organizes Apple devices like the iPhone, iPad, and iPod By Identifier separately.
To lookup a specific Mac not only by its Model Number, Model Identifier, or EMC Number -- but also its Order Number, Part Number, or Serial Number -- use EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup.
