Apple is also expected to release a redesigned MacBook Air variant with the M2 chip in July. The novel 13-inch MacBook Pro will be out to order globally from this Friday, while the deliveries and in-store availability starting on June 24. The March event of Apple revealed that an all-new Mac Pro, which the Apple Silicon will power, is just around the horizon as it’s expected to account at the end of this year. The Mac Pro and the high-end Mac mini are the two Intel-based devices that remain on Apple’s roster.

13-Inch MacBook Pro with M2: 8,928 (based on a single result).Mac Pro with 28-core Intel Xeon W: 20,029.

Mac Pro with 12-core Intel Xeon W: 11,919.

Mac Pro with 8-core Intel Xeon W: 8,027.

13-Inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air with M1: 7,395 to 7,420.

Average Geekbench 5 multi-core scores for different Macs Samples: However, the benchmarks offer an impressive testament to the exciting performance the upcoming Apple Silicon chips can offer in more affordable Apple Mac options. The leaked performance of the MacBook Air (left) is slightly faster than the XPS 13 in single-threaded tasks, but oddly, the actual subscores mostly show the XPS 13 to be faster.įor now, we’ll accept that the leaked numbers indicates a laptop that costs more and has half the SSD capacity is slightly faster in single-core performance but much, much slower in multi-core performance.Provided that the Mac Pro also offers other beneficial features like bigger built-in SSD storage capacity, expandability, configurable GPU choices, and bigger RAM, this certainly doesn’t equate to an Apple-to-Apple comparison. We don’t know whether these differences trace back to their respective operating systems, variations in benchmark implementation cache size, or some significant change between Amber Lake and Kaby Lake R. Meanwhile in Geekbench’s PDF rendering test, the 2018 MacBook Air’s score is far higher than expected given the minimal differences between the CPUs. On other scores where the MacBook Air was faster, it didn’t seem to match the fairly minor clock speed differences between the laptops.įor example, the AES cryptography performance is far higher on the XPS 13 than the MacBook Air.

However, when we looked at the subscores for Geekbench, some of the performance scores of the XPS 13 were quite a bit higher than the leaked scores of the MacBook Air.
