We test out the new MacBook Pro with its M2 chip.
The MacBook Pro 13-inch is the first device to come with Apple’s new M2 chip, which features an 8-core CPU with four efficiency and four performance cores, with a 10-core GPU, which is two more than the GPU in the Apple M1 powering the Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch , and more than the M2 chip in the base model of the new MacBook Air.
We ran several apps, including the Adobe Photoshop photo editor, while also browsing websites on Safari, and the MacBook Pro 13-inch kept pace brilliantly. macOS felt fast and responsive, and we even edited 4K video with various sources playing at once, and the MacBook Pro 13-inch kept performing. We also hardly heard the fans fire up, which means this is a workstation laptop that is almost completely silent in use.
Apple boasted of how the M2 chip could offer an 18% performance boost to CPU tasks while still using the same amount of power as the M1 chip - an exciting prospect considering how powerful - and power-efficient - the M1 chip was. For people looking for a powerful laptop that they can work on pretty much anywhere without worrying about running out of battery, the MacBook Pro 13-inch is a great option, then.The MacBook Pro 13-inch is on sale starting at $1,299 / £1,299. That's actually the same price that the previous M1 model launched at, which we should give Apple credit for.
