Small chip. Giant leap.
Itβs here. Our first chip was designed specifically for Mac. Packed with an astonishing 16 billion transistors, the Apple M1 system on a chip (SoC) integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and so much more onto a single tiny chip. With incredible performance, custom technologies, and industry-leading power efficiency,1Β M1 is not just a next step for MacΒ β itβs another levelΒ entirely.
CPU
8-core CPUΒ Weβre on a power chip.
The M1 chip makes MacBook Pro outrageously fast and powerful. Its 8βcore CPU rips through complex workflows and heavy workloads, with up to 2.8x faster-processing performance than the previous generation2Β β all with unbelievable energy efficiency.
GPU
Creates beauty like a beast.
The 8-core GPU in M1 is the most advanced graphics processor weβve ever built.Β Period. And it brings the worldβs fastest integrated graphics in a personal computer,7Β delivering a ridiculous 5x boost in graphicsΒ horsepower.
Machine learning
16-core Neural Engine. Smarts, meet speed.Β Machine learning (ML) brings taskβsmashing speed and automation to video analysis, voice recognition, image processing, and more. And the M1 chip with a 16βcore Neural Engine and a full stack of technologies takes ML performance on MacBook Pro into the stratosphere.
macOS Monterey
The power of macOSΒ Monterey onΒ M1.
macOS Monterey unlocks the potential of the M1 chip and transforms Mac with all-new ways to work and play. Connect, share, and create like never before using FaceTime and Messages. Explore the web on the streamlined Safari, the fastest browser in the world.Β And work across Mac and your other Apple devices with Universal Control.macOS Monterey also includes industry-leading privacy features and bestβinβclass security.
Speed and responsiveness
The M1Β chip and macOSΒ Monterey work together to make the entire system snappier. MacBookΒ Pro wakes instantly from sleep. Everyday tasks from flipping through photos to browsing Safari are faster. And your hardest-working apps all have access to the power theyΒ need.
More power. Wakes instantly.
Biggest collection of apps ever
Run powerful apps built for M1. All your existing apps work thanks to RosettaΒ 2. And for the first time, you can use your favorite iPhone and iPad apps directly on macOSΒ Monterey. Altogether youβll have access to the biggest collection of apps everΒ forΒ Mac.
Thermal efficiency
Active cooling sustains blazing-fast performance
All-day battery life
Up to 20Β hours of battery life.
Go long.
Unified memory
Runs a tight ship.Β The M1Β chip brings up to 16GB of superfast unified memory. This single pool of highβbandwidth, lowβlatency memory allows apps to share data between the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine efficientlyΒ β so everything you do is fastΒ andΒ fluid.
