That's potentially a problem, as it requires software developers to support two versions of their products an Intel version and an Apple M1 version. To get the best performance, the programs you use will need to be rewritten to properly take advantage of the new hardware. Is it a safe upgrade for photographers or other creative professionals? Or should you wait for promised software updates?Īpple using its own chips might seem like a small change that you'll never need to think about, but it has a big impact on how software will run.
I've spent some time now with the 13-inch M1-based MacBook Pro (with 16GB RAM) and have run it through a variety of tests to see how well I can work on it. The performance boosts Apple promised were appealing - as was the supposed battery life improvement - but I was nervous about having to run my professional software on a platform that wasn't yet properly supported by some of the tools I use every day. As a professional photographer, I was intrigued when Apple ditched Intel's chips and instead started using its own M1 silicon in the MacBook lineup.
