Apple Silicon on the Mac began with an iPad chip, and now the MacBook Neo has taken things to the next level with a chip originally designed for an iPhone.
Since 2020, every Mac, from the entry-level Mac mini to the powerful Mac Studio, has been powered by an M-series chip. The M1 was the first Apple-designed ARM chip made with the Mac in mind. It spearheaded the company’s move from Intel, but it didn’t start the transition to Apple Silicon.
