apple Apple’s new 13-inch MacBook Pro with the next generation M2 chip will be released on Friday, June 17 and will reach customers and stores on June 24. Starting at $ 1,299. It is the first computer to be released with the M2 chip, which was announced during Apple’s WWDC developer conference earlier this month. The new MacBook Air will also feature an M2 chip, but a release date for this computer has not yet been announced. The M2 chip offers improved graphics performance over the M1 with a 10-core GPU or graphics processing unit and can be configured with up to 24 GB of memory for professionals who need to run multiple programs and tasks simultaneously. However, the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models can be configured with M1 Pro or M1 Max chips and more storage, RAM, processing and graphics cores than the 13-inch M2 MacBook Pro, which means that people who need even more power can be better with these computers. Apart from the chip, the computer is otherwise largely unchanged from its predecessor. It has the same screen, design and camera, for example, and still has the Apple Touch Bar, which is not available on the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBooks Pro. It also has the same battery life.
