Apple silicon has transformed the Mac lineup with its blazing performance and power efficiency. The breakthrough system on a chip (SoC) architecture combines the CPU, GPU, memory and more on a single chip so everything runs much faster — while requiring much less power.

The M2 chip is built using an enhanced second-generation 5‑nanometer technology. It features over 20 billion transistors — 25% more than M1. And its 16-core Neural Engine is capable of executing up to 15.8 trillion operations per second to accelerate machine learning tasks. Up to 24GB of high-performance unified memory gives the CPU and GPU shared access to a larger memory pool. And the 100GB/s memory bandwidth — 50% more than M1 — makes multitasking and running multiple apps super fluid.
