Quick Fix presents a rundown of Apple’s “Scary Fast” event, where the tech giant unveiled the latest upgrades to its MacBook Pro and iMac lines. We’ll swiftly compare these fresh offerings to their predecessors, giving you the insights you need from your trusted tech repair experts.
- M3 Chips
Apple’s introduction of the M3 series chips promises unprecedented speeds and performance. Compared to the M2, the M3 chip is expected to bring even greater efficiency and potentially cooler operation, suggesting a reduction in common overheating issues.
- New MacBook Pros
The new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models dazzle with M3 chips and a display that’s 20% brighter. Beyond the brightness, these models claim a battery life of up to 22 hours, a significant jump from the M2’s already robust battery performance.
- Faster iMacs
The new iMacs with an M3 chip now includes more memory and advanced connectivity with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. The previous iMac models were no slouch, but the M3’s added memory and connectivity push the boundaries further, ensuring a smoother multitasking experience.
- Accessories and Other Announcements
Apple’s “Scary Fast” event also highlighted that Apple’s Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse will retain the Lightning connector, and introduced a new USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable in Space Black.
