- agloeregrets 4y agoM2 does not hold a candle to the M1 Pro or Max, don't worry. Every improved spec is much better in the M1 Pro/Max.
- fdgsdfogijq 4y agoYeah but my guess is soon the M2 Max will be revealed. Its probably already developed, they just need to wait six more months to reveal. Clearly apple is able to jump straight to the M2, but they are releasing M1 to maximize profit.
- spfzero 4y agoIts not really so clear though, that the next fab rev would come through on time. They often don’t and these product plans are developed years in advance.
- Escapado 4y agoDidn't the M1 come out in november 2020 and the M1 Pro in October 2021? That would be closer to a year than 6 months. I actually would not be suprised if it took even a little longer and if they went with a more advanced node on TSMC to get both, architecture improvements and miniaturization improvements.
- minimaxir 4y agoThe M2 is 5nm, so not sure if going to something like 3nm is possible with the same architecture.
- thebean11 4y agoProbably not for the Macbook Pros. The current ones are already backordered multiple months, not much incentive to release new ones this year.
- Bud 4y agoPlease either support made-up arguments like this, with sources, or even better, don't post them to begin with. Don't waste our time. Absolutely nobody wants to hear that you have magical oracular powers that enable you to tell us what the secret evil motives are behind Apple's CPU development iteration schedule and product release schedule.
- hatware 4y agoThey know how to capture their market. These things will sell like hotcakes.
- fdgsdfogijq 4y agoIncremental release of breakthrough products. M1 and M2 were both probably ready at the same time. Release M1, then M2 to try and get the upgrade sells. Its tough to beat, but atleast the products are amazing
- kanwisher 4y agoM2 is nearly 2 years after m1. On iPhone apple was updating the cpu every year
- mullingitover 4y agoIf your purpose in buying a computer is to have the latest thing, and not because it does what you need it to do, you're gonna have a bad time.
- alfiedotwtf 4y agoMy new computer's got the clocks, it rocks But it was obsolete before I opened the box You say you've had your desktop for over a week? Throw that junk away, man, it's an antique Your laptop is a month old? Well that's great If you could use a nice, heavy paperweight
- sonar_un 4y agoThat’s precisely why I skipped M1 altogether. The M2 gains are great and we will have more mature software. The second M2 Pro drops, it’s an instant buy.
