Everyone on Twitter seems to have the Mac Pro already — here's why

Take a scroll down your social media feed and you’ll probably see your friends proudly displaying a brand new Mac Pro on their desk — but there’s less to it than meets the eye.

Apple has enabled iPhones and iPads to view an AR model of the Mac Pro on the devices’ camera, accessible from the Apple website. Twitter users have taken gleefully to the concept, which lets you shrink or expand the desktop beyond its actual size.

We’ve had some fun with the app, and it’s impressive how well the AR works — it quickly appears on a flat surface in a good quality image, allowing you to see how the size compares in real life. We’re just a bit disappointed it doesn’t enable you to play around with the computer by taking off the shell or exploring the internals.

Some Apple fans used the tool for bragging rights straight away:
