Apple today announced the launch of M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, two next-generation systems-on-a-chip (SoC) chips to bring greater performance and energy efficiency to your computers.
The idea is that the M2 Pro chip perfects the architecture of the M2 chip, with a CPU of up to 12 cores and a GPU of up to 19 cores. Unified memory up to 32GB fast.
In the case of the M2 Max chip, the GPU with up to 38 cores, doubling the combined memory bandwidth and furthering the capabilities of the M2 Pro. Unified memory up to 96GB.
Expanding these capabilities increases performance per watt in the industry and equips technologies such as the faster 16-core Neural Engine.
The M2 Pro chip is now included with the Mac mini, while the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips will now be available on the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro.
The M2 Pro Chip delivers second-generation 5 nanometer performance and has 40 billion transistors, 20 percent more than the M1 Pro chip and twice that of the M2 chip. With a combined memory bandwidth of 200GB/s, it doubles the memory and The next generation 10 or 12 core CPU has up to eight high performance and four high efficiency cores.
In fact, the company noted that heavy workloads in applications like Adobe Photoshop run faster than ever, and rendering tasks in Xcode run 2.5 times faster than on the MacBook Pro with the fastest Intel chip.
Now in the case of the M2 Max, the chip has 67 billion transistors, that is 10 billion more than the M1 Max chip and more than three times the M2.
The new Mac mini with M2 and M2 Pro chips will be available in 27 countries and regions, including the US, starting today. It will begin shipping to customers and will be available in Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Resellers starting Tuesday, January 24.
Mac mini with M2 and M2 Pro chips will be available in Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Macau and New Zealand starting Friday, February 3.The Mac mini with the M2 chip starts at $599 and $499 for training.
Orders for the new MacBook Pro with M2 Pro and M2 Max chips are available starting today, January 17, with a base price of $1,999 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro and $1,849 for the education version.
The 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M2 Pro chip has a starting price of $2,499 and $2,299 for Education.
Along with the new chips, macOS Ventura will enable users to reach a new level of performance and productivity with new features such as Visual Organizer, Continuity Camera and FaceTime Handoff. In addition to updates to apps like Safari, Mail, Messages, Spotlight.
The idea is to launch a passwordless future. iCloud Photo Library Sharing now supports up to six family members and the new Freeform app.
In the case of being eco-friendly, the Macbook Pro and Mac mini use 100% recycled materials such as aluminum in the chassis, rare earths in the magnets, tin in the motherboard solder, and gold in the plating of various motherboards. circuits.
It’s also 35 percent or more recycled plastic, 97 percent of its packaging is fiberglass, and 96 percent goes for the Mac mini. Apple is approaching its goal of completely removing plastic from all packaging by 2025.
