For those who can’t, the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, as we discovered in our reviews, will certainly won’t disappoint. Apple is already reportedly developing “several successors” to the M1 chip with significant performance improvements that could arrive as early as Spring of next year.Ĭonsidering that most professional apps like the Adobe Creative Suite are not yet optimized for the M1 chip either, waiting for these rumored upgrades will most likely work out in your favor - if you can afford to wait in the first place. More importantly, despite the positive reception, we can’t rule out the fact that these are first-gen products and those are always a gamble in one way or another. However, by opting for the Mac mini, which is $600 cheaper than the MacBook Pro, I can room for these future releases.

If I buy the M1-powered MacBook Pro or MacBook Air today, it won’t be reasonable for me to discard them and upgrade to the new one in mid-2021.

Incidentally, a recent graphic in the macOS App Store features a human finger interacting with Mac windows.Īpple has, time and again, dismissed the possibility of a touchscreen-equipped Mac with the company’s VP, Craig Federighi calling the whole concept a “fatiguing thing.” But if recent developments are any indication, there’s still plenty of hope left. And with Big Sur’s iOS-like look, that’s more apparent than ever. More importantly, macOS is increasingly edging towards an operating system that works with fingers as well as a mouse and keyboard - similar to Windows PCs. And no, I don’t see myself investing in another computing device like the iPad for performing tasks a laptop should easily do in 2020.

At the time of writing, the majority of iOS apps and games have not been optimized for macOS either, and the ones you try to sideload will be riddled with bugs. Sure, the Macs now support mobile apps, but without a touchscreen, the experience is far from ideal.
