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

[CarlJ]

3.5x faster CPU, 6x faster GPU.

So, waiting to hear from all the forum members who have been adamantly claiming, "no ARM CPU can ever do real professional work."

 

[yaxomoxay]

This could've been a press release.

 

[scottish]

Well that was rather brief.

 

[volfreak]

Big Sur Thursday? Why not today?

I’m running the latest beta which is release candidate, I believe.

2015 MBP here. Maybe time to upgrade....

First, 12 Pro Max on my birthday....

Your b-day the 13th? Mine is and my Pro Max is being delivered then. What a great gift (to myself).

 

[TimeSquareDesi]

How come the photo lineup showed 3 laptops and the mini? Does that mean the 16" is still yet to come??

CORRECT

 

[retta283]

I don't think anyone expected that one... Awesome to see that again

 

[arkitect]

well, that was fast

That's what she said…

 

[Johnny907]

Justin Long was too busy for a cameo? We got that instead of AirTags?
FFS, Apple. Way to whiff a presentation.

 

[Metrosey]

How come the photo lineup showed 3 laptops and the mini? Does that mean the 16" is still yet to come??

They did say over the next few years, so they might not even release the 16 inch next year.

APPLE DO NO WRONG !!!!!!

 

[Alex3917]

They said the high efficiency cores are the same speed as the current Mac Air cores. That means a 16" running this would be slower than a current 16". It wouldn't make sense to release a 16" computer until they have a chip with 8 high-performance cores.

 

[Karllake]

Least “one more thing” event, ever

 

[LeeW]

Open the god damn store already so I can get one of those new minis!

 

[dannyyankou]

Apple should stay away from comedy

Are you not familiar with the old "I'm a Mac" and "I'm a PC" commercials?

 

[MistrSynistr]

Not sure they understand if you one more thing PC guy you introduce an iMac.

 

[Rogifan]

These sure seem to be great products but the event itself was boring. Just an existing Mac with a different chip in it.

 

[Mdracer]

that ending was horrible to try to fit another jab at windows laptops.

 

[northernerchris]

Glad to see all the salty af forum users as usual.

Honestly, Apple could release 20 new things and it still wouldn't be enough 😂

Next time, don't watch?

 

[BaltimoreMediaBlog]

Tim Cook simply will never have a "One More Thing" in him. That's for sure.

 

[UBS28]

3.5x faster CPU, 6x faster GPU.

So, waiting to hear from all the forum members who have been adamantly claiming, "no ARM CPU can ever do real professional work."

So this thing has a better GPU than the 5500M in the 16" MBP even?

 

[Ries]

No AirPods Studio... The only thing I wanted :-(

 

[MrGimper]

OK, back to my Series X and real innovation.....

 

[MrMacintoshIII]

GUYS!!! IT WAS THE OLD IM A MAC AND IM A PC MUSIC!! Ohhh man that was so nice to see and hear again.

 

[ThisBougieLife]

I think they really wanted Apple Silicon machines by the end of the year and this was what they could do in the time frame. Next year should be more interesting. A redesigned iMac with Apple Silicon might be my next purchase.

OMG - PC !!! tears to my eyes 😂🤣
