Apple announces its first MacBook Pro laptop from 13 inches that will be delivered to users with the new processor designed in Cupertino in the Apple Park laboratories and presented at the event “One More Thing “, ushering in a new e for Mac computers. It’s not just a new Apple MacBook Pro based on the ARM chipset, it’s a real revolution for Apple is specifically making a product that will also and above all appeal to an audience of creative professionals as well as technical ones.

MacBook Pro 13: this is how the new laptop with the M1 chip is made

The new MacBook Pro is only available in one size from 13 inches and will start from a price of 1. 479 ?? in the version with 256 GB of SSD storage memory. As mentioned the protagonist will be the new Apple M1 processor , which according to the company features the “fastest CPU core in the world” but also the fastest integrated graphics and great power and performance advantages over the Intel chips it had previously used. The new MacBook Pro will launch with macOS 11 Big Sur, which Apple claims was designed to work flawlessly on new hardware.

For the performance of the new MacBook Pro from 13 inches , Apple, claims to be in front of a product 2.8 times faster, with graphics that are even up to five times faster faster than the previous generation. And unlike the new MacBook Air , features here an active cooling fan system. There is still the now known Touch Bar, along with two Thunderbolt 4 ports (located on the left side of the laptop).

Apple MacBook Pro: autonomy up to 20 hours!

If we talk about performance, however, we can only talk about the battery and autonomy. Especially in this case since the company created the new MacBook Pro with M1 chip to make it highly efficient from this point of view. The leap in performance, according to Apple, is impressive since with MacBook Pro users can reach up to 11 hours of navigation on the Web and even up to 20 hours of playback video. Apple states a step of 10 extra hours than before and clearly a longer battery life ever offered on a Mac.

It’s a great leap forward , not just for Apple’s internal chips, but for ARM-based laptops in general as the competition like Lenovo Flex 5G, Samsung Galaxy Book S or Surface Pro X they do not reach these figures. No one has made an ARM-based laptop that promises Apple-backed performance with these new MacBook Pros. And we’ll see if the field trials confirm just that.

Apple has already shown applications such as Microsoft Office and Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom as running on Apple chips exhibit outstanding performance. It will clearly take some time to implement: Lightroom will not be available next month and other key apps, such as Photoshop, will not launch until 2021. Of course, those who want to try a MacBook Pro for their work can count on ” made in Cupertino ” level apps such as Final Cut Pro or Logic which have already been fully transformed to work on Mac and its chip M1 .

Today’s release marks a considerable change , which will bring same chips conceived and designed for iPhone and iPad, on macOS computers with the necessary modifications. And the fact that the company feels confident enough to do this even already with a MacBook Air , a MacBook Pro and a Mac Mini , says a lot about the fact that these machines have been properly tested even at a professional level and ready for the real professional. Of course there will be a lot of work to be done and we have also seen some mistakes in the past made by Apple in the incorrect assessment of the needs of professional devices, Mac Pro 2015 primarily. But it is possible that in this Apple has learned from its mistakes and that the new MacBook Pro can overturn and forget that very episode.
