TheM3 chiprocks the same processing and graphics cores as the M2 before it but is built using a 3-nanometer process and is reportedly faster and more efficient – with Apple noting that this could translate to a 60% speed boost compared to the M1 and a 13x zippier performance than the ...
I should say, however, a 13% jump in single-core performance is pretty impressive compared to standard gen-over-gen Intel chips. When you’re already in the lead, another 13% jump doesn’t hurt. These are already at the top of their class in single-core performance, and with the M3,...

Apple went hard on comparing to Intel MacBooks this year, and when comparing to Apple Silicon, it was really only compared to the original M1 SoCs. Apple Silicon's biggest leap was when it jumped to the first M1 chip, and after that, those yearly improvements have simply been incremental...
Even Apple marketing isn't trying to make that claim, focusing instead on comparisons with Intel chips and M1. For the sake of argument, let's say the 20% bump in bench testing is accurate... what does that translate to in real world tasks? Is it even 10%? And considering that the...

Since we have already seen the M3 chip in the MacBook Pro and iMac you can view our benchmarks to get a clearer picture of how good the M3 is: Apple makes various claims about how fast the M3 MacBook Air is compared to the M1 model and the Intel models. For example, Appl...
The M3 uses a combination of four performance cores and four efficiency cores, made using a 3-nanometer process. Apple insists that the M3 is up to 35% faster than M1 when compared on CPU performance alone. The chip change also means an upgrade in GPU, with Apple going for an 8-core...
M3 CPU and GPU power efficiency compared to M1 Apple/ZDNET Compared to a 12-core laptop PC chip, the M3 CPU can deliver the same performance for only a quarter of the power, while the GPU can do the same for only a fifth of the power. ...
Well, the M3 is Apple’s (and the world’s) first computer chip based on 3-nanometer technology, which is meant to improve efficiency. Check out our MacBook Pro M3 vs. MacBook Air M3 face-off for a full comparison of the latest generation of Apple laptops. The Mac can finally rock...
