And I had heard stunning praise from CAD industry software developers. I already knew Apple Silicon was a possible game-changer.
Now, less than a year later, Apple has come out with a chip (M1) that delivers a stunning performance of its own, and at least by one benchmark is the new reigning single-core performance champion.īut just how powerful is the M1 as compared to rival hardware options out there? And how well might this chip perform in CAD and 3D application environments? These were the questions I sought to answer ever since Architosh obtained a new (late 2020) Mac mini with an M1 processor.

Be sure to read our reviews of both laptops to help you make a final determination.IT WASN’T THAT LONG AGO THAT AMD stole Intel’s single-core performance crown with its Zen 3 chip architecture in the new Ryzen 5000 series CPUs. But I could see some splurging for the Pro to get a little extra oomph and more time away from the outlet.

Well, the MacBook Pro 2022 has some things going for it, too, including a longer-lasting battery, active cooling for faster performance and a 10-core GPU standard.įor my money, I'd rather get the MacBook Air since it gives you Pro-like performance in a more portable chassis. And you can get it for $100 less than the MacBook Pro 2022. The MacBook Air 2022 delivers strong M2 performance, a bigger display than the Pro and a sharper webcam in a slimmer and lighter design. MacBook Air 2022 vs MacBook Pro 2022: Bottom line The MacBook Pro ships with a 67W charger as standard, but Apple doesn't make any fast charging claims with that system. Or you can opt for a $20 67W charger that promises to get the Air to 50% in 30 minutes. Alternatively, if you spec the MacBook Air with a more powerful GPU and extra storage, you can choose between the dual charger and the fast charger for free.

When it comes to charging, the MacBook Air ships with a 30W power adapter, and it costs $20 to upgrade to a dual USB-C charger for juicing two devices at once. Meanwhile, the new MacBook Air's 52.6 watt-hour battery lasted for 14 hours and 6 minutes during our testing. That makes it the longest-lasting consumer laptop we've ever reviewed. The MacBook Pro 2022, with its 58.2 watt-hour battery, lasted 18 hours and 20 minutes in our testing. MacBook Air 2022 vs MacBook Pro 2022: Webcam and speakers So you can connect to multiple monitors at once. Both systems are capable of supporting only one external display.
The new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro both share one flaw, unfortunately. But the Pro widened its lead on the Premiere Pro video editing test, notching 552 compared to 452 for the new Air. The MacBook Air M2 and MacBook Pro M2 were evenly matched in the PugetBench for Adobe CC Photoshop test. The MacBook Air M2 hit 8,919 on multi-core. This puts both machines on par in terms of performance, which is interesting considering how the Pro is touted as being a more performant machine than the Air. On Geekbench 5.4, which measures overall performance, the MacBook Pro 2022 scored 8,911 on the multicore portion of the test. This difference enables the Pro to reach higher levels of performance, such as faster video edits for larger projects. In addition, the MacBook Pro offers active cooling while the Air has a fanless design. To get that on the Air you have to pay extra. While both the new Air and Pro come with Apple's new M2 chip for faster performance, the Pro offers a 10-core GPU as standard. This is where the MacBook Pro 2022 pulls ahead.
