#12Is it strange these were not announced during a live event?
> Is it strange these were not announced during a live event? My conspiracy theory / gut reaction is they want to hide this launch? or at least don't want too many eyes on it? I don't know why I think this but yeah. I have no insider information. This is an unsubstantiated guess.
Extremely underwhelming improvement. The M1 to M2 general performance gap is minor at best.

#13Pricing has gone crazy here in the UK. Paid £1899 for my M1 Pro. Same spec M2 Pro is £2199. Edit: at this rate when my previous gen one expires I'm going to think seriously about shifting back to ThinkPads...
I'm sure part of that is the pound tanking against the dollar!

#14It’s crazy how far ahead Apple is getting in the laptop game with these new chips. I have the first gen MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro (ok maybe they’re not winning the naming game), and it’s a perfect computer. Battery life is literally all day, every single action is instant, I have zero regard for many apps or tabs I have open. It’s just perfect.
I have literally traveled with just a 30 watt anker brick for my phone and used it to trickle charge my MacBook overnight and I’m good to go.

#15Does anyone know "the fastest Intel-based MacBook Pro" means? In my mind, I've always pictured them using the 16" i9 model that throttled before it could hit the boost clock, let alone sustain it.

#16New Mac mini with the M2 Pro maxes out at 32GB memory, that's quite disappointing compared to the Macbook Pro's 96GB.
On the other hand, my M2 Macbook Air is one of the best purchases I've made in a long time, great fanless laptop.

#17No graphs and all comparison is with Intel's Macs, not with M1s.
There are comparisons with M1 Pro/Max:
"MacBook Pro with M2 Pro features a 10- or 12-core CPU with up to eight high-performance and four high-efficiency cores for up to 20 percent greater performance over M1 Pro. "
"MacBook Pro with M2 Max pushes workflows to the extreme with a much larger GPU featuring up to 38 cores and delivering up to 30 percent greater graphics performance over M1 Max"

#19Strange that Apple still isn't offering OLED screens when most other laptop makers are this year...
They tend to not sacrifice longevity over flashy technologies. They migrated to OLED very late in iPhone when compared to other manufacturers, too.
The last thing I want is a burn mark on my laptop screen because of static parts of my IDEs and such.

#20will this support multiple monitors?
Yes, as the predecessor supported multiple monitors this one will too. It's also in the specs on apple.com.
