Yesterday, Apple released the new MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro and Mac mini, all equipped with M1 chip, which is Apple’s first chip designed specifically for Mac.
According to foreign media MacRumors, the first benchmark test of the new chip has appeared on the Geekbench website.
Naijatechnews learned that Geekbench running scores showed that a MacBook Air equipped with an M1 chip and 8GB RAM had a single-core score of 1687 and a multi-core score of 7433 . The basic frequency of the M1 chip is 3.2GHz.
Compared with existing devices, MacBook Air’s M1 chip performs better than all iOS devices. For comparison, the iPhone 12 Pro has a single-core score of 1584 and a multi-core score of 3898. On the Geekbench rankings, the highest-ranked iOS device A14 iPad Air scored 1585 in single core and 4647 in multi-core.
MacRumors pointed out that compared with the Mac, the new MacBook Air single-core performance is better than any other available Mac, and the multi-core performance exceeds all 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro models, including the Core i9 model.
It should be noted that although MacBook Air and MacBook Pro use basically the same M1 chip, because the former uses a fanless design and the latter is equipped with Apple’s newly designed cooling system, there may still be some performance differences between the two.
The detailed running points are as follows:
