We already know when the new MacBook will come out with the Apple M2 chip

What to say about the Apple M2? The truth is that for 3 weeks this microprocessor – the successor to the 2020 M1 – dominated the news, videos and covers in all media. And not because of marketing or advertising, but because the chip is really interesting.

The fact is that the new Apple M2 processor is primarily an update to the M1, not a successor. And that’s mostly due to the M2’s manufacturing process, so the benchmarks aren’t very encouraging.

Chipmaker TSMC is behind the production of the M1 and M2, and Apple says the M2 comes with a 5nm “second generation” node. And, as was said at the time, the MacBook Air would be the first computer with this chip to go on sale. Today we know when.

Of course, even if the given release date is correct, the new laptop may still be in short supply and delivery times will be pushed back quickly to an uncertain future, but this is already too much speculation.

The new MacBook Air is very different from the previous version, with a new design (similar to the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro) and a 13.6-inch screen with thinner bezels.

In addition to the new M2 chip delivering 18% CPU performance improvement, 35% GPU performance improvement and up to 50% bandwidth improvement. memory compared to the M1 chip. On paper, this is a clear improvement.
