May 7 “Let Loose” Event - new iPads

People at the other place are going non-linear losing their minds about it having the word "Pro" in the name.

@Eric, it would be kind of fun if you renamed this place “macrumors pro.”

(at least until the cease and desist)

You all may laugh but I'll do it if you give me the word.

 

[Citysnaps]

TechBoards Pro?

 

[Eric]

TechBoards Pro?

I was thinking more the name of this Apple forum.

I am in the camp of we’ll see M4. Let’s see.

May seventh. Five-Seven. Like Heinz 57 – do we have a steak in this announcement? Is Apple playing ketchup?

No, but Trump may throw some against the courtroom wall.

 

[Cmaier]

I wish they’d get rid of some of the fluff at the beginning of these presentations. I have things to do!

Did apple buy BART?

 

[Andropov]

M4!

 

[Cmaier]

Welp, we have M4.

 

[Cmaier]

4 performance, 6 efficiency cores. 10 gpu cores.

Same performance as M2 at half power.

 

[Cmaier]

Same performance with ¼ power of “thin and light” intel chip?

 

[Andropov]

Interesting that they increased the number of E cores to 6. And impressive efficiency upgrade.

 

[Cmaier]

Neural engine: 38 trillion ops per second. More memory bandwidth.

 

[Cmaier]

120gB/s memory bandwidth. 28 billion transistors.

Wonder if they're going to add copper to the first-party cases as well

Very curious to learn more about the updates to the AMX and the NPU. The GPU is probably the same as M3? This is such a strange release...
