There is an Apple source code tracker suggesting that we may see more Macs in AMD processes soon, although another exciting change has come to us in the short term. Tracks are back to Mac access with an ARM processor from the hand of renowned commentator Ming-Chi Kuo.
In his latest report he says that the first Mac has an ARM processor he would see the light during the first half of 2021, some 18 months later and a year after what Intel believed. Apparently Apple would have expanded its investment efforts to move the computer forward, accelerating the development of 5nm ARM processors that will also host the iPhone and iPad that year.
ARM opens up to attack desks
Mac with ARM processors would participate in the same design for iPhone and iPad, so that the development of the macOS app will be much easier now. That doesn't mean that all Macs will have ARM processors at the same time: if Apple plans a change like PowerPC to Intel it may even take another year to see the entire range of computers accept ARM. So much as there have been experts working on it for months.
In fact, it's hard to imagine the more powerful Macs (such as the iMac Pro or Mac Pro) using ARM. In that case it will be a long time, and perhaps in those cases when Apple uses Intel's or AMD's more powerful processes to pull all its power. It's going to be something we'll see next year, actually starting with the less powerful Mac. MacBook Air and iMac basic? Make your bet.
