Level up.
The M2 chip begins the next generation of Apple silicon, with even more of the speed and power efficiency introduced by M1. So you can rip through workflows with a more powerful 8-core CPU. Create stunning graphics with a lightning‑fast 10‑core GPU. Work with more streams of 4K and 8K ProRes video with the high-performance media engine. And do it all at once with up to 24GB of faster unified memory.

Thermal efficiency
Active cooling sustains blazing‑fast performance. Thanks to its advanced thermal system and the efficiency of Apple silicon, MacBook Pro can sustain pro levels of performance, so you can run CPU‑ and GPU‑intensive tasks for hours on end.
Unified memory
Faster memory.
And more of it.
M2 has 100GB per second of memory bandwidth — 50 percent more than M1. And it supports 24GB of unified memory for superfluid multitasking and working with massive files.
macOS
Performs well with others.
macOS and M2 work together to bring more speed and responsiveness to all your go‑to apps — including Microsoft 365 and your favorite iOS apps. Over 10,000 apps and plug‑ins are already optimized for Apple silicon. And Rosetta 2 seamlessly translates apps designed for Intel processors for use on your MacBook Pro.
