Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

A few hours have passed since Apple officially unveiled the M4 and the first iPad Pro featuring the SoC has allegedly been benchmarked on Geekbench 6. Sadly, we cannot compare the single-core and multi-core scores against the M3 or the M2 because the leak revolves around the chipset’s Machine Learning performance, but that does not mean we cannot dive deep and check out its other specifications. New Geekbench 6 shows that the fastest M4 core is running at 3.93GHz, 3 percent slower than the M3 The M4 iPad Pro that showed up on the benchmarking website features the identifier iPad16,3, […]
Apple’s M4 has been positioned as a new chipset that delivers a major leap in performance and efficiency since the company skipped the M3 for the latest iPad Pro models in favor of its successor. However, while the CPU difference between the two SoCs could be major, various claims are being made regarding the GPU performance being identical to the M4 and M3. Here, we take a closer look at these claims and see if they hold some truth. With a higher CPU core count, the M4 may only deliver a noteworthy gain in compute performance An interesting thing to note […]
The M4 announcement during Apple’s ‘Let Loose’ event painted a rosy picture for potential buyers, and they would have likely believed that the latest iPad Pro models would have access to four performance and six efficiency cores. Unfortunately, that is not the case here because Apple cleverly hid the finer details from its audience, and to actually get the chipset with the 10-core CPU, you have to avoid the 256GB or 512GB models altogether. Hearing this is disappointing because the base model does not come cheap and is currently listed for pre-order at $999. The M4 running in the 256GB […]
Instead of using the M3 on the new iPad Pro models, Apple has skipped a whole generation and introduced a brand new silicon for its top-tier tablets called the M4. This time, the company has taken advantage of TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process, the same technology that will reportedly be used for the upcoming A18 Pro. Additionally, the new Apple Silicon comes with a slew of upgrades, along with a new Neural Engine designed to deliver enhanced AI performance. Let us get right into the details. The M4 is the first Apple Silicon whose GPU supports mesh shading and hardware-accelerated ray […]
The M4 is expected to be announced later today during Apple’s ‘Let Loose’ event, and with the company already employing the use of TSMC’s 3nm technology before, we immediately assumed that the new silicon would be fabricated on this lithography. However, one report states that unlike the M3 powering various Macs and mass produced on the ‘N3B’ architecture, Apple’s M4 will switch to the updated ‘N3E’ process, resulting in various improvements. The report also mentions that the upcoming SoC will arrive in three variants, which is nothing unusual regarding Apple Silicon releases. Previous report highlighted evidence which suggests that the […]
Apple plans to better compete with OpenAI and Google by bringing its own generative AI technology to light. However, the company is a little behind, as its competition has excelled over the past year to bring various tools for developers and the end user. It was previously reported that the company has a series of large language models in place which will be available with the release of iOS 18 and other software updates. Now, it is reported that the company is working to make its own AI servers that use the M2 Ultra and M4 chips. Apple building its […]
A report during the weekend caught us by surprise when it stated that Apple may skip the M3 chipset for the upcoming iPad Pro family and introduce a new M4 SoC that will support advanced AI features. While some might postulate that the company will re-use the same silicon while deciding on a different name, two pieces of evidence suggest otherwise. Let us get right into the details and show you what we are talking about. The new M4 features a unique identifier and is entirely different from the M3, hinting at a fresh chipset release Earlier, 9to5Mac reported about […]
The new iPad Pro family is scheduled to launch on May 7, during Apple’s ‘Let Loose’ event. So far, the company has done a tremendous job in preventing hardware leaks of its latest tablets but looking at the company’s past custom chipset releases, we assumed that the newer models would sport the M3 chipset. However, the latest report states that the technology giant could skip this Apple Silicon and introduce the new M4, granting the new iPad Pro models advanced AI capabilities. In short, we could see Apple’s first AI-centric products getting announced very soon. The report shares no M4 […]
A series of upgraded Macs sporting Apple’s newest M4 SoC are scheduled to launch later this year, with the company reportedly following a similar unveiling strategy as it did with the M3 unveiling. In short, we could see four next-generation chipsets be announced in the future, with the M4 Ultra also said to be developed for Apple’s most powerful machines. New report hints that all M4 chipsets will tout incredible processing capabilities, as they will support advanced AI-related functionality It is unsurprising to hear that the M4 specifications are yet to be revealed this early, especially when Apple’s M3 Ultra […]
A new MacBook Pro sporting Apple’s M4 chipset was previously reported to have entered formal development,’ but that does not mean that the new SoC or the portable Mac would launch this early, with an unveiling said to happen sometime in 2025. Now, a fresh roadmap has outlined when the new silicon could materialize, and assuming Apple experiences fewer obstacles in its path, it could launch the M4 in the first quarter of 2025. Qualcomm is also said to have three Snapdragon X Elite variants in development, likely to compete with Apple’s M4 and more powerful chipsets With the M3, M3 […]
