They just updated their macbook air and mac studios and mac pros like 6 months ago? If they updated right now, the previous owners would feel utterly screwed over.
- jdalgetty 3y agoYup I bought an m2 mbp about 3 weeks ago.
- TylerE 3y agoFeels like it's moved super fast. I just bought an M1 Studio earlier this year.
- nomel 3y agoAlmost four years now, for M1. I get the impression that people are used to Intel’s stagnation that we were stuck with for some time.
- icedchai 3y agoOnly 3, unless you're counting the developer boxes? M1 machines were released in November 2020. However, M1 Pro and M1 Max were released only 2 years ago. Things are definitely picking up now...
- Jensson 3y agoAnd more importantly, these improvements are mostly thanks to TSMC's progress. You could predict the M3 already late 2022 when TSMC announced that they were starting mass production of their 3nm process. We knew that it would be a huge improvement based on the specs we had back then and roughly how long it takes to ramp up. https://pr.tsmc.com/english/news/2986 https://pr.tsmc.com/english/news/2986

- 01100011 3y agoRight but why did they just update them then? Why not do it earlier or wait for the M3?
- FireBeyond 3y agoNot even. If you ordered a non-baseline M2 Ultra Studio at launch, you likely didn't receive it til the first week of August. So we're a week shy of three months. So I'm glad for not being screwed, I think. Although who is to say they're not just being sat on (M3 Max chips)...
- nomel 3y agoThis is a perspective that comes from stagnation. Tech is progressing again, finally. This is normal for tech, and a good thing.
