Yesterday, Apple unveiled “MacBooks” that run on the new, faster processor chips, “M2 Pro” and “M2 Max”, in a sudden launch weeks before the technology giant’s usual date.
The launch of new personal computers that use the latest “Apple” versions of the “M2” chips, which it introduced for the first time last year, comes based on a decision taken by the company in 2020 to use semiconductors of its design, after relying on “Intel” technology for 15 years, reports Al-Rai daily.
The price of the new “MacBook” small device starts at $599, and it will be available as of January 24, while the price of the 14-inch and 16-inch “MacBook Pro” devices equipped with the latest chips starts at $1999, compared to $1299 for the 13-inch model equipped with an M2 chip.
“Apple” said that the device equipped with the new “M2 Pro” chip has about 20 percent more semiconductors than the “M1 Pro” device, and contains twice the amount found in the “M2” device, which helps programs such as “Adobe Photoshop” to run heavy loads ‘faster than ever’.
Apple usually holds its first conferences of the year in March, when it introduces iMac devices and accessories.
Bloomberg reported earlier that the Apple conference scheduled for this spring may witness the launch of the long-awaited augmented reality glasses.
