Apple said that they were beginning to make thei r own processors for Macs, and that they would gradually transition off of Intel processors. The new processor already proved its chops by solidly outscoring other Macs in the Speedometer 2.0 benchmarking app. One of the big gest announcements back at Apple’s 2020 Worldwide Developer Conference was Apple Silicon. Real-world tests show that it’s at least that fast. Apple says the chip is 18% quicker than its predecessor. The 2022 MacBook Air in the head-to-head test is one of the first with the Apple M2 processor. The MacBook Air configuration in the test costs $1,599, while the XPS Plus goes for $1,849. This is not an example of an expensive Mac being more powerful than a cheap PC. When talking about the Dell, Max Tech host Vadim Yuryev said, “The battery life on those machines is not good and those chips take a lot of power.” That said, take the Windows PC off its battery and its scores rise to 1548 single-core and 8103 multi-core, so one of its benchmark scores beats the MacBook.īut there’s a drawback for someone planning to use their notebook on the go. The laptop scored 1681 on the single-core test and 7260 on the multi-core one.įor comparison, the Dell XPS Plus scored 1182 single-core and 5476 multi-core on the same test while unplugged, losing to the Mac on both test segments. ![]() The YouTube channel Max Tech loaded the recently released Parallels 18 onto the 2022 MacBook Air and tested it with Geekbench 5. This virtualization software can put Windows on a Mac. That means that situations arise where dedicated macOS users need to be able to run Microsoft’s operating system. Windows has the lion’s share of the desktop/laptop market.
