Taking a look at new Macs using the proprietary M1 chip, Apple revealed no WWDC 2022 o M2, the second generation of its processors. The M1 Ultra was the end of the first generation, paving the way for the M2, the second generation of its processor.
The goal is to maximize performance and minimize energy consumption.. The 5nm chip has 20 million transistors. It promises 24GB of unified memory. The processor has 8 cores, four for performance, four for efficiency. THE Apple promises 18% more performance than the previous generation and 1.9x more capacity. That is, more power, less energy spent compared to the previous generation.
The M2 It also has a new neural engine with 15.8 trillion operations per second, that guarantees 8k video processing, guaranteeing multiple 4K streams.

O first computer to be powered by the new chip is the Macbook Airconsidered its best-selling laptop. The laptop is completely built from the ground up around the M2 processor. This one comes in four colors and has a new design, with rounder edges. Its volume has been reduced by 22%, making it lighter and thinner than the previous model.
The MagSafe charging system has been recovered, freeing up the two Thunderbolt ports for other functionality. It has a 13.6-inch Retina Display screen with reduced bezels. It is 25% brighter than the previous one. Your camera has been upgraded with 1080p capability and improved low-light recording. The speakers are between the keyboard and display, promising four speakers supported by Spatial Audio.
Its performance guarantees to be 20% faster than the Macbook Air with the first generation M1. And it has a silent design, promising 18 hours of video playback. It has an adapter with two USB-C to charge two devices at the same time.
In addition to the Macbook Air, the MacBook Pro will also receive an M2 processor upgrade. It promises to be 39% faster than the previous generation, including gaming performance. It promises better performance in multitasking, but also 20 hours of autonomy in video playback. Both computers were designed with ecological and hit the market next month.
