Apple today announce the MacBook and Mac mini with the Apple Silicon M1 Chips.
The M1 is the most powerful chip it has ever created and the first chip designed specifically for the Mac. M1 is optimized for Mac systems with small size and power efficiency being considered. M1 chips is built using cutting-edge-5-nanometer process technology and is packed with 16 billion transistors, the most Apple have ever put into a chips. It is consider as present as the world's fastest CPU core in low-power silicon, the world's best CPU performance per watt and the world's fastest integrated graphics in personal computer.
M1 is
8-Core CPU
3.5x faster in terms of CPU performance
6x faster GPU performance
15x faster machine learning
2x longer battery life for the present Mac.
