Apple unveiled the MacBook Air M3 model last week as a surprise. The company, which included three different processors in the M3 family and finalized its work, started early tests for the M4 series. When will the M4 MacBook models be released?
When will the M4 MacBook models be released?
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple has officially started developing the next generation M4 chip. Considering that MacBook Air models with M3 were recently introduced, this is a very important development for the company.
The details of the M4 processor are not yet known. However, reports suggest that it will power MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini and other Mac models. It was stated that the M4 will promise higher performance and efficiency by preserving the 3nm process.
Google is working on a new "sticky keys" support for Android keyboard.
There will also be some improvements on the optimization side. This shows that it will have significant gains in both performance and efficiency compared to the M3 chip. The M4 platform is likely to hit the market in late 2024 or 2025.
Apple’s chip could see the biggest boost in artificial intelligence tasks. With each new processor, the company puts more emphasis on the Neural Engine, and the M4 will feature more NPU cores built directly into the chip.
This development will strengthen the artificial intelligence features on Mac computers. It will also enable faster on-device machine learning tasks such as image and video analysis. As development is still in the early stages, other technical specifications about the M4 are unknown for now.
