M2 Pro chip destroys Apple’s old M1 Max, benchmarks reveal massive performance leap
The first benchmark tests of Apple’s new M2 Pro Apple silicon chip reveal that it’s actually faster than Apple’s old M1 Max chip, a remarkable achievement.
The first benchmark (opens in new tab)of the new M2 Pro chip, as spotted by MacRumors (opens in new tab), has surfaced on Geekbench. Tested Wednesday, a new ‘Mac14, 12’ appears to show a new Apple M2 Mac mini with the M2 Pro chip, specifically the 12-core CPU version with 16GB of unified memory.
It clocked a single-core score of 1952 and a multi-core score of 15013. Now, benchmarks can be quite arbitrary and that may not sound important, but for reference, Apple’s M1 Max chip only clocks 1727 and 12643 respectively. This means that Apple has achieved a significant performance improvement over the M1 Max with its M2 Pro chip, and indicates that the M2 Max chip could absolutely blow the old one out of the water when those numbers surface.
M2 Mac mini performance
The old M1 Mac mini scored 1651 and 5181, revealing that a new M2 Pro chip will absolutely blow the old machine away. Of course, the M2 Mac mini is a much better comparison to the old machine, which scored 1961 and 9003, another absolutely massive leap in performance and broadly in line with the M2 MacBook Air (2022).
If these numbers are anything to go by, Apple’s M2 Max chip could be an absolute beast, and a prospective ‘Ultra’ version may double the M2 Max configuration.
Apple unveiled its new M2 Pro and M2 Max chips this week alongside its new M2 Mac Mini and the new MacBook Pro (2023). The new products are already available to pre-order and will be released next week. Aside from the beefy processor upgrades, Apple didn’t make any noticeable changes to the chassis or design of either device.
The company also unveiled its new HomePod 2 this week.
