Apple's Mac Studio is a tiny pro-level desktop powered by M1 Ultra
The rumors were true: Apple has introduced a high-powered headless desktop that sits between the Mac mini and Mac Pro. The company has launched the Mac Studio, a compact machine with up to a 20-core M1 Ultra chip, a 64-core GPU and more expansion than its mini counterpart. Not surprisingly, Apple is making bold performance claims — it believes the Studio is up to 80 percent faster than the Intel-based Mac Pro tower in certain circumstances.
You'll have plenty of choice for peripherals with four Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-A ports, HDMI and Ethernet on the back. And yes, Apple is aware you want front ports — two USB-C connectors and an SD SD card slot will spare you from reaching behind the system to upload photos. The computer is also power-efficient. Apple claims the Mac Studio uses about 100W less power than a 16-core Windows at similar performance levels.
