New M1 processor monsters
Apple moved on to talk about the MacBook and Tim Cook boasted about the power of the Mac's M1 processors and said it's time to release additional power for Apple's silicon processors to fit the MacBook Pro
And start with the M1 Pro processor
The new processor supports up to 200GB/s in memory data transfer speed and a memory capacity of up to 32GB
Featuring more than 33.7 billion transistors, it delivers 70% better performance than the M1
M1 Pro vs M1 . Comparison
The processor comes with 10 cores, of which 2 are economical and 8 are high-performance
In terms of graphics, it includes a 16-core graphics processor
It offers twice the graphics performance of an M1 . processor
The new processor is dedicated to the processing of media files such as H.264, ProRes Raw, and other files

Then Apple revealed the M1 Max processor, which is a double copy of the M1 Pro, which is itself a double copy of the M1... That's why the conference was called Unleashed, a phrase usually used in the sense of unleashing monsters
The Max processor supports a memory data transfer speed of 400GB/s and a memory capacity of up to 64GB
A picture to compare the new Apple processors
The processor comes with a double copy of everything like it supports memory up to 64 GB
It has 32 graphics cores versus 16 in the M1 Pro, as well as two ProRes processor units
Then Apple published several pictures to compare the performance of the processor with energy consumption compared to most processors in the market and the comparisons showed that Apple offers you the same performance with electricity consumption of less than half and sometimes the differences reach 70% and 80%
And this one too
Compilation of the features of the M1 Max processor
In the end, Apple made it clear that the applications will provide amazing performance with the processor, even those that have not been upgraded, you will see exceptional performance for them with the emulator program Rosetta Stone Her own. Of course, Apple reviewed some software and developers who spoke about their fascination with the performance
Thanks to the new Apple processor, it offers a significant increase in ML machine learning techniques up to 20 times
MacBook Pro
Then Apple moved to talk about the Mac devices that come with this processor and they are the MacBook Pro 16 and 14 inches
The devices come with a new design, thin thickness as well as light weight
The MacBook Pro keyboard is the same as Apple's Magic Keyboard, and Apple has removed the famous Touch Bar
The computer comes with an HDMI port, ThunderBolt 4.0, and an SD port on one side
On the other hand, an Aux port and two ThunderBolt 4.0 ports, with the return of the famous MagSafe port for charging, but with a new, advanced version, the third generation.
Apple said that you can connect two Pro XDR monitors with the M1 Pro processor, while with the M1 Max you can connect 3 Pro XDR monitors and a fourth TV screen with 4K quality at the same time.
The edges have been reduced up to 3.5 mm from the sides and the top as well, and the area that has been reduced is where the top bar of Apple is placed.
The modifications made the screen 16.2 inches and it comes with 7.7 million pixels, or specifically 3456 * 2234 pixels.
And the smaller screen is 14.2 inches and 5.9 million pixels, or specifically 3024 * 1964 pixels, which is more pixels than the old version of the 16-inch Mac. The screens offer 1 billion colors
The screen now supports Pro Motion up to 120Hz and can go down to 24Hz
Comes with Liquid Retina XDR technology found in iPad Pro screens
It comes with the same Mini LED lighting and the same quality and technologies that we know from the iPad
The screen comes with a brightness of 1000nits in traditional mode and a maximum of 1600nits of brightness, which is a large number. Apple said that the new Mac screen is the best screen in any PC in the world
The camera has been developed to support 1080p quality, quad lenses, and f/2.0 aperture, and this provides double light in the images
The computer now includes 3 microphones, which Apple said support “studio” quality and is characterized by 60% less noise resistance, which means greater clarity when recording anything or conversations
As for the headphones, it includes 6 speakers, and the headphones can provide bass power 80% higher than previous generations
And, of course, the headphones support Apple's Spatial Audio technology to provide distinctive surround sound
Then Apple compared the performance of the graphics processor compared to the famous cards such as the Radeon Pro 5600M found in the previous generation of 16-inch Mac computers.
Comparing the performance of Apple processors with the i7 processor of the 13-inch MacBook Pro
Graphics comparison of the same devices
Apple said that the SSD storage supports a read speed of up to 7.4GB/s
Moving on to the battery, the 14-inch version supports 17 hours of video playback, which is 10 hours more than the previous generation
While the 16-inch version supports 21 hours of video playback, which is also the largest of 10 hours
The computers come with MagSafe 3.0 support with a power of 140 watts, which enables you to charge the computer up to 50% in 30 minutes. The charger comes with only 16-inch MacBook Pro, while the 14-inch comes with a regular charger and you have to buy the 140-watt charger independently

And don't forget Apple to protect the environment
Prices start at $1999 for a 14-inch MacBook Pro with a Pro processor, and $200 to add a Max processor (there are two versions of the Max). The price is also up to $ 2499 for the 16-inch MacBook Pro with an M1 Pro processor and $ 3499 for the version with a Max processor (you can get the lower Mac version for $ 3299).
The version with the Max processor can become 64 GB memory for an additional $ 400, which is the price of $ 3899, with support for storage capacity up to 8 TB. The devices are now available to order and will be shipped next week
Are the ideas over until the ports and function buttons are returned and the touch bar gets rid of?
Thanks for the great article 🌹
Really unique devices and worth buying for those who need them
شكرا لكم
Question for the professionals
Are MacBook Pros now a good alternative to gaming PCs in terms of performance?
Are the games available to the same degree as they are on PC?
Like you, I'm looking for an answer.
Because I want to buy a Mac gaming laptop, I like the Apple system very much and the integration between its devices and at the same time I want to use it for all uses and games on top..
Masha Allah, very strong specifications
But I will not buy an Apple laptop, and the reason is:
1 Not familiar with Microsoft Windows
2 I will buy YOGA Slim9 laptop!
Thank you, Yvonne Islam, for this excellent presentation
Thanks for the article 👍
You are right, brother Abdel-Fattah
But what prevented Apple from offering a new model that is better than both old models?
The idea that I had was that I would buy the new model of the headphones as soon as it was released, but when I saw the new Apple I gave up on the idea of buying, and it is impossible to buy this model and I prefer to stay on the Pro version
Peace, mercy and blessings of God
May God bless your good morning
Macs are great, but what I didn't expect is that the third-generation version of the Airpod's headphones will be less in features than the AirPod's pro that was released over a year ago.
As I entered and looked at the comparison between the two versions, the result was that it was impossible to think of buying the third generation of headphones.
Something really weird from Apple
There is a difference between the two models. The comparison is between the second and third generation, and not between the third and Pro, the second generation or even the first.
I think the intention was to fill the gap in the categories of headphones and motivate a certain segment of users who do not want to buy the Pro to buy new headphones
Apple once again teaches its competitors a lesson entitled “How to be innovative and dazzling,” and is again flying over the distant horizon that is difficult for its closest competitors to reach.
An excellent and adequate summary that suffices to follow the conference in person. But I was hoping that the editor of this rich summary would mention at the beginning of the article that these Mac Pro products are aimed at a certain segment of specialized professionals so as not to provoke a strong and frightening reaction from some commentators that their prices are fantastic and accuse Apple of greed!
It can be said that talking about this category of products today is like talking about Ferrari racing cars, and it is natural that their prices are very expensive and even imaginary.
If I still work in graphic design and buy this MacBook Pro, then within two months I can cover it from the profits of two months of work!
🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁
The Battattal conference reminds me of the dazzling eras of the old Apple conferences, about myself I have a Mac mini m1
Indeed, his strength is astonishing and unexpected
I am running it on Windows and Mac, and in both cases it is very powerful, fast and error-free until today, and I study programming on it.
How about the power of Double and Triple of that power!
These devices, brothers, are really pro
With all the meaning of the word
It is directed to professional users and not to us ordinary users, the first version of the processor at its modest prices is sufficient for us, and congratulations to the professionals for this impressive development and qualitative leap in performance 👍👍
How did you get to install Windows on it when Apple ditched the boot camp
Also an architectural difference. Or did you install it using the Arm windows version of an emulator?
Installed with parallels
And the latest version of it supports the m1 chip
Windows XNUMX was loaded with ARM architecture
And working like the elephant, Alhamdulillah
Excellent conference
Frankly, I never expected this huge amount of power… the difference between the first and second versions of the Apple processor is very imaginary…
For the first time in a while, Apple really singled out its muscles over everyone... and even the choice of the name of the conference was appropriate... Indeed, Apple launched monsters that will take the second companies years to catch up with them.
What is this, Apple?
The $2 trillion company is baring its teeth with missile MacBooks, and no one will catch up until years later, and it will have developed its M1 pro and M1 max horses beyond the imagination of Intel and others.
Creativity beyond creativity, Apple
For years, I was not impressed by your conferences, but today and at this conference, Apple exceeds all our expectations in the all-new MacBook Pro.
Everyone must have felt the presence of new touches from young fingers and ears that heard people's requests and for the first time from a stubborn Apple listening and returning together the entrances to the MacBook Pro.
Yes, that's how we want our creative company, and that's what you should be, shining apple.
And finally, thank you, Yvonne Islam, for this wonderful article.
Great specifications (and greatness is for God alone) and a price beyond imagination... Long live your hand on summarizing the conference and may God bless you and grant you two Mac Pro Max XNUMX..XNUMX Kik
Actual car price
Thank you for the beautiful explanation and wonderful details
For those who do not require all of these specifications, it is the current Pro because its price is suitable and before Apple withdraws it from the market.
Even the prince is excellent and there is no big difference from the pro 13
We are waiting for the reviews of this new beast, and if the results are as Apple said, it is the beginning of a new era of processors, and Intel should wake up before it is too late.
For those who talk about prices, these devices are intended for professionals, including programmers, photographers and engineers, and not for the average user
What does it mean that there are two versions of Max processor???
The only difference is the number of graphics cores, one is 24 cores and the second is 32 cores,,, The rest are exactly the same specifications, this difference
I liked everything about the MacBook Pro except for removing the Touch Bar!!!
Apple is always full of surprises 🤩
Masha Allah great conference
The new XNUMX headphones are very good
Thank you for this beautiful summary and the terrifying beast (terrifying wizard)
I would like you to talk over time, for it is more important to us than the Apple conference.
Their prices against the specifications are considered acceptable for those who need these specifications from the engineers and those who work in graphics, design and output... The average user does not need these specifications.
It is very unfortunate that Apple's only concern is to raise money. I look forward to the day that Apple followed us, the Mac, without a keyboard.
Something is really wrong
Fantastic prices they lost their minds
Masha Allah, you are an upholsterer who tells how to have a laptop without a keyboard
Fantastic prices
How do I order the AirPods 3 from the Apple website and have it shipped to me
Exaggerated prices: Apple is a profitable company par excellence. It developed, yes, but very slowly, with imaginary and missile prices.
It is true that Apple is late in Mac computers because competitors are making computers that can fly, and Apple is still busy developing a modern processor. We do not know when Intel and others will catch up with it.
A Mac computer for the price of a car is the same as what I told you, Tariq Mansour
This is the price of the mac from long ago
On the contrary, the price has not changed from before,,, Modern technologies and relatively fixed prices
As usual, excellent coverage
