- A metal reference point for the M4 Macbook Air has just filtered
- It is in line with the m4 chip on the iPad Pro, which makes a lot of sense
- It is anticipated that the laptop will be launched in the coming weeks.
The M4 MacBook Air is expected to be imminently launched, with the new chip promoted to provide performance and efficiency improvements to one of Apple’s best macbooks. And it seems that we will not even have to wait until its launch to discover your performance.
This is because a reference point has just leaked on the Geekbench website. The test results were published on February 19 and show a device that runs macos 15.2 and with a ten -core M4 chip and 24 GB of memory.
In terms of performance, the M4 chip in this MacBook obtained 54,806 at the point of reference of metal graphics. Compare that with the 13 -inch iPad Pro with M4 Chip, which obtained a very similar 54,064 score. Taking into account that both devices are known for their thinness and cooling without a fan, the thin margins between them make sense.
Labeling as “Mac16,12”, it is believed that the mysterious MacBook is Apple’s next M4 M4 M4 Air because it does not match any existing MAC code name. However, it aligns with a Mac identifier that Apple accidentally leaked, one that was attributed to an M4 Macbook Air.
A credible reference point
It is possible that this reference point has been false to make the appearance of belonging to a piece of unnoticed Apple hardware. However, that seems unlikely, since it is widely in line with what we expect from the M4 chip.
We mention the previous iPad Pro score as a comparison point, but we can also see how this filtered reference point does against the M4 Macbook Pro. In Geekbench, a sample metal test obtained 57,596, an improved result in front of the MacBook Air that It should not be a surprise since the MacBook Pro has an active cooling that can help increase its performance.
Then, all things suggest that this escape is a credible result, perhaps genuine for the next M4 Macbook Air.
In addition to the new M4 chip, the next Macbook Air could obtain an improved LCD screen (unfortunately, an OLED panel is still a few years), a better webcam and a stronger support to connect multiple monitors.
This spring is expected to be launched (at some point between now and June), with Bloomberg Mark Gurman’s reporter claiming that he will be on sale “no later than” no later than “.
