For reference, the base M2 that was introduced this week is built on an enhanced 5nm node at TSMC. It packs over 20 billion transistors, which is a 25 percent bump over the base M1 model, and ...

Both M1 and M2 models start at a 8-core CPU and a 16-core Neural Engine, 8 GB of memory, and 256 GB of flash storage. The only spec difference is the M2 now starts with an 8-core GPU instead of ...

The M2 MacBook Pro is 10 percent slower than the 14-inch MacBook Pro with a 10-core M1 Pro–as far as general-purpose performance goes, that’s actually noteworthy for the M2 MacBook Pro.

The M2's 100GB/s unified memory bandwidth makes it 50% faster than the M1. Although the former has a similar 8-core CPU with 4 energy-efficient cores and 4 high-performance cores, it is 18% more ...

The MacBook Air (M1, 2020) model, runs on Apple's M1 processor. When it first launched, it offered a 7-core GPU model and an 8-core GPU model, though only the 7-core model is available now.

The bigger question is how the M2 chip fits in with the existing CPU lineup Apple offers. As the followup to the M1, we expected it to be better than the M1 in terms of simple performance.

The M1 Ultra is officially the last chip in the M1 series. The Extreme model will sit above the Ultra and will be a monster with 48 CPU cores and up to 128 GPU cores, about double the resources ...

I purchased an M1 MacBook Air the day it was released in November 2020, so I’m pretty familiar with the model’s strengths and limitations. And the M2 Air behaves so similarly it can be hard to ...

CPU Benchmarks have leaked for Apple's M2 chip! 3.49GHz CPU clock vs M1's 3.2GHz Single-core performance gain vs M1: 11.56% Multi-core performance gain vs M1: 19.45% A little bit better than my ...

Apple itself says that the M2 chip's CPU is 18% faster than the M1. Per the Geekbench 5 comparison, the M2 chip is 11.6% faster than the M1 in single-core scoring and 19.5% faster in multi-core ...
