Apple’s new M2 chip is a next-generation device that has been developed to evolve the use of Macbooks. Apple is saying goodbye to the Intel processors that were used in previous Macbooks. This processor is going to be a revolutionary piece of hardware that will change the world of computer processors.
Specs
The M2 Chip is an SoC or ‘System on Chip,’ which incorporates numerous amounts of components such as RAM, CPU, GPU, and many more. This remarkable piece of technology supports thunderbolt cable, which is another great aspect of the extraordinary features used to power Macbooks with the M2 Chip.
Overall the new M2 chip is based on the M1 chip but has improved in many ways. The Neural Engine built-in has 16 cores, like the M1. With this new and speedy Neural Engine, the GPUs are extremely powerful compared to previous ones. The GPU of the M2 Chip can be up to 10 cores. The M2 chip has an 8-core CPU. Apple has definitely improved since the M1 chip. It can process up to about 15.8 trillion operations per second. The chip supports 24 gigabytes of memory and outstanding performance, coming in at 2x better than the M1 chip (according to Apple.)
The M2 Chip is featured in the 13-inch Macbook Air and Macbook Pro 2022. The M2 chip is very power efficient compared to other M1 Pros and M1 Maxes. That is exactly how Apple aimed for it to be designed. It wasn’t meant to be as crazy as the M1 Pro and M1 Max, it was simply made to be able to have a long battery life while performing much better than previous chips.
M2 Conclusion
Should you buy the 13-inch Macbook Air or Macbook Pro 2022? Well if you are looking for a laptop that will perform at a high level, in terms of graphics and power, then sure, go for it. Also, you can access large files faster than the M1. So if you need things to be speedy and rapid, I think the M2 would be a good choice for you.
