Apple has just unveiled the new 14-inch MacBook Pro powered by the latest M5 chip. The M5 chip boasts a next-generation 10-core GPU, each core equipped with its own Neural Accelerator, delivering 3.5 times faster AI performance than its predecessor, the M4, and up to 6 times faster than the original M1.
This means smoother workflows for AI-heavy tasks like running large language models, text-to-image generation, and deep learning.
The CPU is faster and more efficient with a 10-core design, offering 20% faster multithreaded performance than the M4. Graphics performance also increased by up to 1.6 times.
Apple claims that the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M5 can deliver:
* Up to 7.7x faster AI video-enhancing performance in Topaz Video when compared to the 13‑inch MacBook Pro with M1, and up to 1.8x faster than the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4.
* Up to 6.8x faster 3D rendering in Blender when compared to the 13‑inch MacBook Pro with M1, and up to 1.7x faster than the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4.
* Up to 3.2x higher frame rates in games when compared to the 13-inch MacBook Pro with M1,3 and up to 1.6x faster than the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4.
* Up to 2.1x faster build performance when compiling code in Xcode when compared to the 13‑inch MacBook Pro with M1, and up to 1.2x faster than the 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4.
The new MacBook Pro supports up to 24 hours of battery life, faster SSD storage with up to 2 times the speed of the previous generation, and up to 4TB of configurable storage.
The laptop also features the same Liquid Retina XDR display, a 12MP Center Stage camera, and a six-speaker sound system.
