WHEN IT INTRODUCED its latest chip, the M1 Ultra used in the Mac Studio, Apple explicitly stated that this completes the M1 lineup. Will new Mac models from here on have a newer chip inside? Apple has reportedly begun testing of “at least nine” new Mac models with next–generation M2 processors, including: > MacBook Air, Mac mini, and MacBook Pro models powered by an M2 chip with eight CPU cores and 10 graphics cores (compared to eight graphics cores in the current MacBook Air); > 14–inch and 16–inch MacBook Pro models with M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, the latter with 12 CPU cores and 38 graphics cores (compared to 10 CPU cores and 32 graphics cores in the current model); > Anew Mac Pro with M2 Ultra chip.
Two or more new models could be announced as soon as June, at Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference.
