I think it makes sense if you think about it. “Max” is pretty objective, it means the highest limit of something, so that’s the most powerful. “Ultra” isn’t very clear, but we know it’s lower than Max and higher than “not ultra”, so it’s in the middle. Since both “max” and “ultra” imply something not just better but larger, we can conclude that the plain M2 is the version targeted at more power efficient devices. Finally, Pro stands out as the only modifier clearly unrelated to computing performance, so it must have to do with “professional” features, like ECC RAM and MDM.
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoCan't tell if this is sarcastic or not. First, it's just wrong, as the M2 Ultra is more powerful than the M2 Max. I could easily justify these adjectives being in any order.
- throw310822 3y ago"ultra" means "beyond" as in "beyond a limit" so it makes some sense for it to be more powerful than Max. Not saying that the naming is clear.
- albert_e 3y agoM2 Max+ 2.0
- yencabulator 3y agoCan't wait for the M2 Max Ultra Pro.
- bee_rider 3y agoI’m pretty sure this comment is describing a totally plausible but wrong ranking as a means of pointing out how ridiculous the names are. I think it is hard to justify a ranking that puts anything above “max” unless you are designing for Spinal Tap.
- noisy_boy 3y agoEverytime I think of Ultra, I think of MK Ultra - very dangerous. Max, well, he is my nephew - nice kid, not so dangerous. Pro - I am a pro, pro must be amazing. So I say, Ultra > Pro > Max. There, I solved it.
