after a hurricane of back and forth leaks with Apple's 14 and 6 inch MacBook
Pros which were expected to get updated this month yes November with new chips
and other updates we finally have the truth we have confirmation with what's
gonna happen and they are getting delayed but in this video I'm gonna
explain why that's actually the best case scenario for these new Macbook Pros
because it points to something that I've been speculating for months now and so
many people were going against me saying that is wrong there's no way that could
happen but I think we finally have confirmation and that's of course that
the new Macbook Pros are coming with new three nanometer M2 Pro and M2 Max chips
so let's get started Mark German who is the most reliable leaker out there just
came out with a new power on newsletter letter saying that Apple's next Max are
delayed and set for early next year based on the company's internal plans
and most recent earnings call comments but before I dig into this newsletter
from Mark I want to point out that for months now Mark believed that the new
Mac Mini and MacBook Pros would be launching in November it's been like
that for months all the rumors pointed to it but finally we have confirmation
that it is not happening from Mark German himself with this new newsletter
so let's get right into it right here he says that Apple's been gearing up for
the launch of some new Macs and now we have a clear idea of one that will occur
early next year he's told that apple is aiming to introduce the upgraded models
including M2 based versions of the 14 inch 16 inch MacBook Pros which is the
M2 Pro and M2 Max in the first quarter of calendar
2023 and if you want a specific date here it is he says Apple rarely launches
products in January or February so it's gonna be in the first half of March
which actually aligns to what I've been saying for months now which is perfect
and the reason he believes so strongly in this delay is because Apple was
aiming to release it this fall but their latest comments and their earnings call
confirms it when Tim Cook basically said that the product line for their Max is
set for the holiday season which means no new Max until next year but this
right here is my favorite part Apple Also may be waiting until it can build
ships using the three nanometer process the first M2 chips on the M1 are based
on five nanometer technology so it's probably worth the wait yes you guys
just heard Mark German finally acknowledge that these new M2 Pro and M2
Max chips could be built on three nanometer instead of five Against All
Odds and against everybody who said there's no way apple is gonna do this
Mark German just acknowledged it and it's not only Mark German because we got
some other leaks from other sources including the account ux 1122 on the
Korean blog Naver saying the supply chain points to the 14 and 16 inch not
launching until early next year matching up to what Mark German is saying and the
even more important piece to the three nanometer puzzle is the fact that
markerman says that there's going to be no new Max until 2023 including the Mac
Mini which I personally thought was going to be launching in November for
sure but there is actually a very good reason for the delay which I am going to
be getting into in just a minute so the big question that we've got to figure
out is should you wait for the new M2 Pro and M2 Max MacBook Pros next year
well regardless of your decision our sponsor basis sent us over the perfect
charger for the 14 or 16 inch MacBook Pro this is their power combo 100 watt
power strip that comes with a nice five foot long cable and it can charge up to
six devices using Dynamic power allocation it offers up to a hundred
watts of fast charging to charge something like the 16 inch MacBook Pro
like this one up to 33 in just 30 minutes but making it even better is the
fact that it has not one but two USBC ports as well as two USB a ports to
charge a bunch of devices on your desk but the Banger feature is that it also
has two AC Outlets so you can plug in even more devices including these unique
battery chargers that we actually use for our camera monitor for our top cam
the value of this thing is crazy good because it costs less than other 100w
Chargers but unlike those it also comes with the additional two AC outlets and
it comes with a USBC Cable in the box so it's basically the best and most compact
charger I've seen for the price so go ahead and check it out using the links
in the description and pin comment below now getting back to why the delay of the
Mac Mini is so important to the three nanometer puzzle we actually got some
brand new leaks from the Mac Rumors Forum user amethyst check this out he
recently said that the coming Mac lineup May cost a fortune saying that the 14
and 16 inch MacBook Pro with M2 Pro and M2 Max will include very high bandwidth
high speed Ram which could make it more expensive which might be a reason why
some of you might just buy this 14 or 6 inch MacBook Pro right now instead of
waiting but speaking of the Mac Mini he said that the next Mac Mini will be a
simple M2 drop in which basically means no redesign chassis it's going to look
the same which kind of makes sense because the Mac Studio has the same
design as the old Mac Mini which is what
Mark German was saying but then amethyst also came out with this Mac Rumors Forum
post saying that the Mac Mini is going to be an incremental upgrade with the
same design basically the same Parts but a change in the soc slash threads that
basically means that we can expect the M2 Chip but not only that because the
Mansion of threads means that it could be two different choices of the M2 so
the empty chip and the M2 Pro chip which other sources have been saying for
months including mark gurman saying that we could have the choice between both of
those and I fully believe that it's going to take an M2 Pro Mac Mini to
fully replace the Intel model that's for sale for over a thousand dollars so if
Apple wants people to pay that price it's got to be the M2 Pro and now let's
get into why that is so important that Apple completely delayed the Mac Mini
both the M2 Pro and the regular M2 versions check this out I recently made
a video four months ago saying that Apple's M2 Pro MacBooks will be better
than you think and the whole point of that video was that it would be based on
three nanometer chip technology from tsmc which is called N3 thin flex and
you might be thinking that I'm crazy and that it's pure speculation but there are
a ton of leaks that pointed to those chips the M2 Pro and M2 Max being based
on three nanometer check this out way back in June tsmc themselves said that
their three nanometer chips are launching an early
2023. you can see their chart right here from tsmc saying that in 2022 N3 would
begin production which is those three nanometer chips and guess what already
already happened in August it was reported that tsmc was beginning three
nanometer chip production next month which was in September so tsmc is
already working on these three nanometer chips but check this out way back in
June we got our first report from Jeff Pooh saying that tsmc was going to start
mass production of new three nanometer M2 Pro chip later this year not five
nanometer three nanometer and not only that but shrimp Apple Pro who was the
first one to leak the new camera design with the dynamic Island for the iPhones
he himself in June said that the M2 Pro and Max will get three nanometer yes he
confirmed it himself and even in July he confirmed yes to somebody asking if the
M2 Pro Max are gonna be three nanometer and then once again in August taiwan's
commercial times themselves said the 3 nanometer M2 Pro chip for the MacBook
Pro was entering production but it doesn't stop there because digit times
said the same thing Apple's first three nanometer chips expected to enter
production this year and then later in August there were rumors that tsmc was
abandoning their three nanometer process but the CEO confirmed and said that the
process is far from canceled they're working on it and the M2 Pro and M2 Max
are likely to be on three nanometer and then finally just last month on October
24th Apple has reportedly given tsmc a large order to mass produce its M2 Pro
M2 Max and future socs on the latest three nanometer process look at all of
those leaks pointing to the M2 Pro and M2 Max on three nanometer not five
nanometer and I believe that is why Mark German is finally acknowledging the
possibility of these chips being based on three nanometer and that may be why
app apple is waiting they're waiting until those chips are ready which tsmz
said is only happening in early 2023 so all of the puzzle pieces are finally
coming together including my own personal thoughts on the actual Apple
silicon update cycle being an 18 month cycle which would be perfect because
this MacBook Pro the 16-inch came out in November of 2021 and 18 months after
that is basically spring or March of 2023 perfectly falling in line and being
right on time for three nanometer chips so because of all of that and Apple's
delay of these MacBook Pros until next year I am now 100 sure that those new M2
Pro and M2 Max chips will be built on three nanometer Against All Odds and
because of that they are going to be in absolutely killer upgrade they're going
to be more efficient the battery life is going to be a lot better they're not
going to overheat they're going to be able to use full performance without
having crazy fan noise or Apple's just basically going to be able to give
insane amounts of power to them if they choose to I think those three nanometer
chips are going to be worth the weight and worth the upgrade but it's gonna
come at a cost because Apple could raise the price so if you're not willing to
pay more than these MacBooks which start at 2000 for the 14 inch and 2500 for the
16 inch then maybe it's a better choice for you to just buy this one right here
because it's currently on sale on Amazon for a crazy good deal and you don't have
to wait so if you don't care that much about three nanometer it could be worth
it just to buy it right now for the better sale price but if you disagree
