Apple has unveiled its new 14-inch MacBook Pro powered by the M6 chip. The launch is aimed squarely at college students, business professionals and creators who want more power for heavy workloads. The most important part of this launch, however, is not the comparison with last year’s model. It is the case it makes to the large base of users still on M1-era MacBooks.
According to Apple, the M6 MacBook Pro delivers up to 30 per cent faster graphics performance and up to 25 per cent faster AI workloads than the previous-generation M5 model. For users upgrading from an M1-powered MacBook Pro, the gains are far larger: up to 11 times faster graphics and up to 13 times faster AI performance.
What the M6 Chip Brings
The M6 features a 12-core CPU, which Apple describes as having the world’s fastest CPU core, alongside a 12-core GPU. The company says the chip improves responsiveness in everyday productivity tasks as well as demanding professional workflows.
