Apple unveiled the new M2 processor at WWDC, but unlike the M1, it probably won't offer the seismic shift in performance that Macs have recently enjoyed.
For Mac fans, the new Apple M2 was the most exciting announcement to come out of WWDC 2022. It’s the chip powering the M2 MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro coming next month, and Apple says it’s up to 18% faster than the M1 while drawing the same amount of power. Sounds impressive, but is the M2 really as big of a generational jump as Apple is saying?
For TSMC, which is by far the world’s largest semiconductor company, a full node improvement is what you’re looking for between CPU generations. That means shrinking the manufacturing process to fit more transistors on the chip while improving efficiency. The problem is that TSMC delayed its next-gen node in 2021, and it appeared to be a prime candidate for Apple’s M2.
What’s new then? Apple’s M2 looks like a refinement to the M1. That starts with the manufacturing process, which, despite not being a full node jump, still allows Apple to squeeze 20 billion transistors on the die. The M1, by comparison, packs in 16 billion. That wouldn’t bring a massive jump in performance on its own, so Apple has a few other changes to bring the M2 up to speed.
