Apple Event Live Coverage: Apple Silicon Macs Announced! [Full Transcript of Event]

[clangers23]

People were actually expecting redesigns for these debuts?

That wasn't likely, just too many plates in the air at the same time. It's a significant architectural change and Apple don't ever give us everything in one go. They'll be able to sell us the redesigned Macbook with M1 next year as well.

 

[naturalstar]

One more Mac!

16" ???

 

[paulvee]

BOOM!

 

[nezr]

PROOOOO

 

[yaxomoxay]

Well I hope this stops people moaning all the time

But I doubt it.

Why would we? It's fun!

 

[DeepIn2U]

Hello Julie Broms 😉 I have a MacBook Air with M1 wanna dance?

iMac baby

 

[justperry]

And a third one.

 

[dinobear]

creatives pros' 16"

 

[Kylo83]

how can the M1 be good for the pro and air, isn't it an entry level chip

 

[bklement]

Air is great, but mac mini maxing out at 16gb ram is disappointing. I guess should have realized what unified memory means..

 

[mannyvel]

I wonder if the M1 design means you can't have a dual M1 system?

 

[boss.king]

I really wish that they’d actually give concrete comparisons rather than saying it’s “faster than the top-selling desktop in its class”.

Exactly. What exactly is its class, Apple?

 

[lapeno]

13"

 

[Joelist]

And....new MBP 13!

 

[ssgbryan]

You'd think, but on my 5,1 with Catalina there are at least three system processes that compete to get to 100%.

Your 5,1 is a decade old. They max out at 12 cores/24 threads, or less than a Ryzen 3900x (a 500 CPU).

 

[thadoggfather]

where is the 14”

 

[Rogifan]

MacBook Pro. Touchbar lives.

 

[nol2001]

Unfortunately, the Touchbar has survived.

 

[northernerchris]

MBP 13 niiice! </borat>

 

[Darth Tulhu]

Aaaand, the TouchBar

 

[nezr]

sexy af

 

[!!!]

I see they still haven't gotten rid of the touch bar, unfortunately.

 

[Sugarcubes]

M1 has seemed cool even before today but I’m gonna wait till we get real benchmarks to get truly excited over it.

 

[steveebeatz]

Mac mini / 16gb Ram?

 

[Saturnine]

There goes my wallet...
