M2 Pro takes pro performance to the next level. With over 40 billion transistors — 20% more than M1 Pro and twice that of M2 — the M2 Pro chip brings even more speed and efficiency to everything you do. And with double the memory bandwidth of M2, running multiple pro apps is incredibly fluid.
M2 Max goes even further. With up to 96GB of unified memory, M2 Max shatters the limits of graphics memory in a laptop. It’s packed with a staggering 67 billion transistors — 10 billion more than M1 Max and over three times more than M2. And it delivers twice the memory bandwidth of M2 Pro and four times that of M2.
