The previous M4 processor is in fact making way for the new M5, which is three and a half times more powerful on all tasks involving artificial intelligence.
Memory bandwidth and read/write speeds are also faster, improving multitasking functionality as well as video game performance. The screen still uses two parallel-architectured panels for even better image quality, still displays brightness up to 1,000 nits in [abc]SDR[/abc] and 1,600 nits in [abc]HDR[/abc], with a DCI-P3 gamut coverage of 100%. Finally, the choice is still between a standard screen coating and a nanotextured treatment for a matte finish and increased color fidelity.
