“Apple does the same thing at every new iPhone event, emphasizing the new chips that are supposed to deliver better and better mobile experiences,” Smith writes. “But with the A12 Bionic we’re getting a lot closer to the first A-series chip that will power MacBooks.”
“Apple’s mobile chip has evolved so much over the years that they seem to be ready to power MacBooks,” Smith writes. “Apple’s mobile chip is already miles ahead of the competition, reaching scores in benchmarks that are comparable to processors used in laptops. And Apple’s MacBook Air has been the ultra-slim laptop that rivals started replicated years ago. Since then, Apple released an even slimmer device, the MacBook, whose logic board is comparable to an iPhone.
