Apple has just unveiled the new M3 MacBook Air, available in 13 and 15-inch sizes, featuring the latest Apple Silicon technology while maintaining the classic design. Here is a sneak peek at the first M3 MacBook Air benchmark results:
– Single-core test score: 3,157
– Multi-core test score: 12,020
– 20% increase in single-core performance compared to the M2
– 18% increase in multi-core performance compared to the M2
If you’re currently using an Intel-based Mac, upgrading to an M3-based Mac will result in a significant performance boost. However, for most users with M1-based Macs, an upgrade to the M3 may not be necessary unless you require extra power for your tasks.
The benchmark results also revealed some technical specifications of the M3 MacBook Air:
– 8-core CPU with a base frequency of 4.05GHz
– 10-core GPU
– 16GB of RAM
– Cache sizes: 128KB L1 instruction cache, 64KB L1 data cache, and a 4MB L2 cache
Pre-orders for the new M3 MacBook Air are now open, with availability in stores starting on Friday, March 8. Stay tuned for hands-on reviews coming out later this week. The starting price for the M3 MacBook Air in Canada is $1,449.
