Apple Silicon Chipset M1

The ‘M1’ silicon chipset designed by Apple is built in the 5-nanometer process. The M1 comes with an 8-core CPU which consists of 4 high-performance cores and 4 high-efficiency cores. For faster graphics processing, there is an 8-core GPU with worlds fastest integrated graphics. There is a 16-core neural engine in the Apple M1 and Secure Enclave which substitutes the T2 security chipset from Macs. After the launch of M1, no extra chipsets are required by Macs anymore. Everything right from CPU, GPU, and security is integrated into one SoC.

Apple 13-inch MacBook Air

The new 13-inch MacBook Air doesn’t come with any change in the design. But its performance has been bumped up several times by the Apple M1. It is 3.5x faster than the previous generation MacBook Air and will provide a 5-times faster graphics experience to the user. Editing a 4K video can be done without dropping a single frame in the new MacBook Air. With Apple M1 powering it, the MacBook Air becomes 98% faster than all the other laptops being sold in the market.
