- I did not expect to cry at today's Apple announcement
of one more thing.
Made it through the entire event,
and then spoiler, at the end.
If you haven't watched it yet
and you don't wanna have a spoiler,
fast forward a few seconds.
- [PC] PC, still got it.
- Oh my god!
- [PC] Always been there.
I always will be.
Fast.
- No.
- [PC] Okay. (PC sighs)
My battery's drained, I gotta go plug in.
Good luck.
Whoo!
- Can you believe that they brought back PC?
Does this mean that there may be a return
of Justin Long as the Mac?
I would pay him whatever he wanted,
whatever you want, you have it,
if I was working at Apple I would, you're hired.
Anyway Apple has officially announced
their game-changing Apple silicon,
it's the M1 chip.
So, what does this mean?
So, with this new chip being built in-house
that means that the Intel chips
that were previously in Macs will now be transitioning
to these new M1 chips, which is going to allow
for even more seamless integration
between software and hardware.
And now, for the first time ever,
we will be able to run iOS and iPad apps
on the Mac.
Now this is gonna be pretty amazing,
because this is gonna allow us to have an even more
wide range of games and apps to choose from.
This is also gonna be really great for developers,
because they will be able to bring their products
into even more places.
So, let's go over everything that was announced today,
starting with that new thing,
which is the one more thing,
it's basically, it's the M1 chip.
They did say that they are going to be developing
a family of chips, so this leads me to believe
that this is just the starting point.
The M1 is optimizing for a smaller
and more power efficient Mac.
So normally on both Macs and PCs,
they've used multiple chips for CPU,
input, output, security, and more,
but now, they're taking all of that
and combining them all into the M1.
So because all of these things are now inside
of one chip, this will allow our laptops as we know them
to become smaller, thinner, and faster,
and with all of the new devices
that they announced today, the battery life
and performance enhancements are already quite apparent.
So for those who are curious,
more about the technical details of the M1.
It features an 8-core CPU with four high performance,
and four high efficiency.
That's up to 3.5 times faster than before.
An 8-core GPU, allowing for extremely demanding tasks,
like multiple 4K video streams in Final Cut.
I can hear all of my Final Cut editors
cheering very loudly in the background.
Do you hear them? (crowd cheering)
That's them, that's all, they're all cheering.
Any improvements to make my Final Cut workflow faster,
sign me up.
They've also added a 16-core neural engine
for machine learning tasks, like video analysis,
voice recognition, and image processing.
So this will all have a really huge performance boost.
So now, let's meet the first M1 Macs ever.
First up, I would like to introduce you
to the brand new MacBook Air,
starting at $999, or $899 for education.
Now this thing has no fans, it's completely silent.
You can get up to 16 gigs of memory,
up to a 2 terabyte solid-state drive
that is two times faster than before,
five X faster graphics, 3.5 times faster CPU,
up to 18 hours of battery life,
and a 13.3" P3 wide color retina display.
They also said that they were able to improve
the FaceTime camera quality, and it has thunderbolts
and USB4 compatibility.
I sound that crazy because I actually remember
the day that Steve Jobs announced the first MacBook Air,
and there were audible gasps in the office
that I watching it at, and everyone was just
kind of so shocked to see him pull out
this small, tiny, little laptop from that envelope.
That is such a huge day in Apple history,
because it really was the first time
that they were kind of, I was gonna say
pushing the envelope, but they were actually
pulling a small laptop out of an envelope.
It really did set the bar for these smaller,
portable laptops, that was so revolutionary at the time.
The amount of processing power,
even though compared to what we have now
is really not that significant,
but at the time, it was.
Kind of crazy to think about how huge these announcements
are today, even though some people
might not realize its importance,
because the last time that something this revolutionary
happened for the Mac was in 2005,
when they switched from IBM's PowerPC chips to Intel.
Now this is basically setting the entire future
of Apple's hardware in motion.
Next up, they showed the new Mac Mini,
which was really no surprise,
because they had already been using these Mac Minis
to seed to developers with the new M1 chips
since back during WWDC this year.
So all these developers were able to start
getting their apps ready for this transition.
It did change the color of them though,
they now look like they're more of a silver color,
instead of the matte black from before.
The starting price is $699 with 3X faster CPU,
8-core GPU for 6X faster graphics,
ethernet, USB4 and thunderbolt,
HDMI 2.0, and USB-A.
These will also have Pro Display XDR support,
so you'll be able to get up to 6K full resolution.
And this is really great news,
because those Pro Displays are expensive,
but they're also incredible,
and you could also buy probably eight and a half Mac Minis
for the price of a Pro Display with a nano-texture glass.
So it's up to you, do you wanna have a render form,
or do you wanna have one Mac Mini with a Pro Display XDR
with nano-texture glass, it's really up to you.
The next announcement, as we'd seen a bunch of rumors
kind of circulating about the possibility
of a new MacBook Pro 13".
Guess what we have?
We've got a new MacBook Pro 13",
with the new M1 chip installed.
It looks pretty similar to all of the previous
generation MacBook Pros, but with this new M1 chip,
it's much, much more powerful, 2.8 times faster CPU,
5X faster GPU, and Apple is saying that this is the longest
battery life on a Mac yet.
So you'll be able to get 17 hours of web browsing,
and 20 hours of video playback.
So I'm trying to kinda combine those two together
to do the Final Cut Pro math, like how much battery
will I have while I'm editing a 4K video
off of an external drive, while I also have
on the backlit keyboard, with wifi.
I'm not sure, I'm gonna say four, five hours maybe?
Four or five?
We'll find out, we're gonna find out,
we're gonna freaking test it out.
That's what we're gonna do.
That's my test.
Done.
So those are the three new Macs
that have been introduced into the M1 Mac space,
but what's most exciting about this
is the future.
That can only mean that the rest of their Pro lineup
is going to be even more ridiculous.
I am so excited about the future of what these new chips
mean for Apple hardware.
And honestly, I just, I really can't wait
to test these out.
So if there's anything specific that you guys
would like to see me test out with either one
of these devices, I would love to hear about it,
so leave me a comment below, and hopefully I will be able
to test it out for you.
If you guys enjoyed this video,

How many times have I had to say that on YouTube?
I don't know, it's a lot.
See ya in the next one.
