Leaks celebrates this in 2021

by

Waiting for the next shoe to fall in 2021? Rumors are circulating a powerful update for Apple’s last Intel grab.

With the release of the M1 MacBook Air and M1 13-inch MacBook Pro in November, 2021 promises Apple’s silicon version of the 16-inch MacBook Pro.

Leaks, aka rumors, so far suggest the following:

The silicon rumors are backed up by Apple ‘s own official messages about moving to its own processors (and, as a result, Intel’ s release) for future Macs.

The MBP 16 largely begs for an M1 update as there is no doubt about the quantum jump in performance.

Little has changed since the MBP 16 was introduced more than a year ago (November 2019). And don’t expect anything to happen until the MBP 16 version of the M1 gets the green light.

The MacBook Pro 16 is currently powered by a 9th gen Intel processor last year (though it can be configured with a decent AMD Radeon Pro 5600M graphics processor at the top end).

Intel-based Windows laptops also feel the heat

The standard 16-inch MacBook Pro is my favorite big-screen laptop among a stable of Windows laptops that I will be testing including the XPS 15 9500 15-inch latest and the latest HP Specter x360 15 (both 2020 models).

But trading is inevitable due to the large performance gaps between Apple M series chips and Intel. Hopefully it’s not a long wait.
