Compared to the $1,299 M1 MacBook Pro, customers will be expecting a significant leap in performance and capabilities. If the rumored M1X MacBook Pro takes the place of Apple's Intel-based, 16-inch MacBook Pro, it will fill the high-end slot that currently starts at $2,399. While that system hasn't been updated since 2019, it is quite powerful and includes a dedicated AMD graphics card.
Rumors suggest the M1X will be the first of these new SoCs and that it will power a new MacBook Pro, most likely becoming a replacement of the 16-inch Intel model that Apple is currently still selling on its website. That means the arrival of a more powerful Apple chip is imminent, possibly in October. The end goal is to completely replace Intel CPUs within two years and that intention was shared by Apple in June of 2020. It's certain that Apple will be building a more powerful version of its M1 SoC that includes more cores, potentially running at a higher clock speed, and incorporating the latest technology, fine-tuned to work seamlessly with macOS, as described in leaks from Bloomberg.

However, when sufficient energy is available, separate components can still overpower Apple's first-generation chip. This integration provides an inherent boost in speed and efficiency that's hard to beat. Known as a system-on-a-chip (SoC), it also takes care of graphics, includes a neural engine for artificial intelligence, bundles memory, and other special functions in a single piece of silicon. Apple launched the first of its Apple Silicon Mac computers last year using the M1 chip and the next generation of this technology is anticipated to bring even higher performance and support greater memory and storage capacity.Īpple's M1 chip is more than just a central processor. Apple is rumored to have an M1X MacBook Pro nearing release, with the announcement expected to come in October or November.
