Apple preps four new M4-powered Macs for October release
vendredi 23 août 2024, 22:00 , par Mac Daily News
Apple is planning to begin transitioning Macs over to M4 processors, with the first batch slated to appear in October about a month after the annual iPhone launch, expected on September 10th.
Mark Gurman for Bloomberg News: The company has ramped up testing of four new Mac models to ensure compatibility with third-party applications, according to developer test logs seen by Bloomberg News. That’s a key step prior to launching the new machines. The Macs that appeared are labeled with the identifiers “16,1,” “16,2,” “16,3” and “16,10.” They all represent models with base-level versions of the M4 chip. Three of the Macs have 10 total cores in their central processing units, or CPUs, while one low-end version includes eight total cores — a measure of performance. The versions with 10-core CPUs also have 10-core GPUs, or graphics engines. The model with an eight-core CPU, meanwhile, has an eight-core graphics engine. They all have either 16 or 32 gigabytes of memory. The 10-core CPU has the same specifications as the M4 processor in the iPad Pro, including four high-performance parts and six cores focused on efficiency. But the fourth chip seen in the developer logs only includes eight total cores, split between four high-performance parts and four efficiency cores. MacDailyNews Note: Bloomberg News has reported that a smaller Mac mini, new MacBook Pro and updated iMac models with M4 chips are set for 2024 release. Read more here.
