Apple Silicon processors bring a ton of capabilities and new features that just were not possible or just plain too difficult with Intel. Apple started this journey way back in 2008. Now here's some macOS Monterey features only available on an M1.
Apple Silicon processors, like the M1, M1 Pro and M1 Max, empower a ton of new capabilities and new features that simply were not possible or just plain too difficult with conventional silicon like Intel, QualComm, AMD, Nvidia. And Apple has been building towards this goal since at least 2008. I’ve written about this a lot, including most recently in Apple History Repeating – Underestimating the M1 Pro & M1 Max Chips. Here’s great article from MacRumors on all the M1 features in macOS Monterey that you can’t get on an Intel Mac.
Apple’s Been Working Towards This Since At Least 2008
In 2008, Jobs started Apple’s work in designing their own silicon because he was not satisfied with the chip in the iPhone. Apple has said many times and shown in their actions since shipping their first Apple designed chip with the A4 in 2010, that what they wanted to build could not be done unless they not just built their own software, but also their own silicon.
We started to see some of that with the M1 and macOS Big Sur last Nov. And more new Apple Silicon empowered features in macOS Monterey. Following that same model of designing both the OS and the silicon to create the User eXperiences (UX) that they imagined, since that Apple designed A4, iOS 4 and the iPhone 4, that they started way back in 2010.
