M6 MacBook Pro vs M5 MacBook Pro: What’s actually changed?

Today Apple unveiled a new 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 chip. It has the same design as before and many of the same features, so what’s actually changed? Here’s what’s new.

Here’s a quick rundown of how the M6 chip compares to last year’s M5, per Apple:

In real-world use, here are the gains Apple says to expect: “The 12-core GPU delivers up to 30 percent faster graphics and up to 25 percent faster AI workloads when compared to M5.”

Finally, here are some pro workflow examples that compare the M6 MacBook Pro to the M5:

Apple’s N1 wireless chip that first debuted in the iPhone 17 is now included in the MacBook Pro too.

Apple also says that N1 improves the performance and reliability of certain features such as AirDrop and Personal Hotspot.

Surprisingly, that’s the end of the list for M6 MacBook Pro upgrades. The new model is solely a spec bump update, with two new chips and no other listed changes.

That said, the M6 MacBook Pro is still a fantastic computer for anyone who wants Apple’s latest chip with a great Liquid Retina XDR display and excellent battery life.

But if you’re interested in something more radically new, Apple’s redesigned MacBook Pro with high-end chips is expected to be unveiled tomorrow.
