Hello, this is Seek Cisco, looking for the latest Apple news, Apple hidden tricks, Apple conscience APP and Apple premium accessories for you. If you need these, you might as well pay attention.
At 1:00 am on June 7th, Apple will hold the 2021WWDC Global Development Conference in an online format, and the five major systems, including iOS, will usher in a major version upgrade. Although it is difficult to see any real news from the current posters, it is still possible to obtain some information about the new system from , which is a relatively reliable source of .
New 14/16-inch MacBook Pro
Recently, analysts including Jon Prosser, Wedbush and Morgan Stanley have indicated that the new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros will likely be released at this WWDC , and Mark Gurman also predicts that MacBook Pro will debut in early summer at the earliest, from the point of view of time node, that is, this WWDC conference.
But there are also many conflicting news. According to a report from DigiTimes, the long-rumored and highly anticipated 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros will enter mass production in the fourth quarter of this year and the first quarter of next year. . In early March, Japanese publication Nikkei Asia reported that Apple delayed mass production of two new MacBooks from May or June to the second half of the year.
Regardless of whether the MacBook Pro will be released at this WWDC, it is certain that it will use a new generation of M1X/M2 processors; Touch Bar will be removed; MagSafe Magnetic charging , SD card reader HDMI interface, etc. Returning; Thunderbolt ports will be increased to 3.In addition, the mini-LED screen previously used on the 12.9-inch iPad Pro is also likely to be applied to the new MacBook Pro.
In addition, according to Dave Lee, a well-known blogger on the Internet, the CPU of Apple's M1X/M2 chip has been upgraded to 10 cores, of which MacBook Pro 14 and 16 inches integrate 16 cores and 32-core GPU respectively, and the power consumption is 20W and 40W respectively.
He also added that based on the GFXBench 5.0 Aztec@1440p scene, the running score is , the M1X (16-core GPU) is expected to be 110+FPS, and the M1X (32-core GPU) is expected to be 170+FPS. Comparing M1, GTX 1650, Radeon Pro 5500M, RTX 3070, etc., it can be found that the 32-core graphics performance of is comparable to that of RTX3070 (notebook).
This test result is for reference only, after all, the integrated GPU performance reaches NVIDIA 30 series graphics card, which is very outrageous , but I believe that the next generation of Apple's self-developed chips can still bring a lot of surprises.
In addition, there are a few rumors that AirPods 3 will appear at WWDC. According to the existing reliability, it can be concluded that this headset will most likely be launched at the autumn conference in September.
