There are many strong international companies in the United States, and Apple is undoubtedly one of the best. Although it has been questioned by the outside world in terms of scientific research and innovation, it is still undeniable that Apple's own super scientific research strength, otherwise, Apple products would not have been as popular as they are today.
In the scientific and technological research and development, Apple once again exerted its strength, this time unveiled is a new chip, Apple is obviously a step forward from independence, which can be bitter Apple's suppliers, especially Intel, mouth to save Apple's orders, in fact, and Apple is getting farther and farther away.
So, the appearance of Apple's new processor, for the development of Intel, what kind of trouble will it bring? At a time when Apple and Intel are drifting apart, where will Intel go?
Apple's new processor is unveiled
On March 9, Apple held a new product conference, officially unveiled Apple's M1 Ultra chip, for this chip, Apple can be said to be pinning high hopes, at the conference, Apple said that the M1 Ultra chip is stronger than the 16-core desktop CPU, lower power consumption.
Of course, no matter how much the apple is mouthed and gushed, the facts always speak louder than words. So, does Apple's M1 chip have real evidence? In fact, in the Geekbench 5 benchmark, such an authoritative performance tool, it still runs out of a single-core 1793 points, multi-core 24055 points such a good result. And such a good result, in fact, is almost close to the level of the top server.
All in all, Apple's new chip, its own strength is undoubtedly very strong, which is undoubtedly a good news for Apple, then, with the future Apple's M1 chip into the market, what benefits can it bring to Apple?
What benefits can the unveiling of the new processor bring to Apple?
This new processor, in fact, itself is also supporting 5G, in the running score test, but also confirmed the top level of its own chip, which can undoubtedly greatly enhance Apple's market influence and market competitiveness, greatly save Apple's market reputation, after all, before, in the field of public opinion, there is always a kind of Apple scientific research and innovation ability is not good, and now, the appearance of this new processor is the best counterattack against this sound.
In addition, from such a running score test, we can find that Apple's M1 chip is indeed 56% stronger than Intel's strongest processor chip 28-core Mac Pro performance, Apple's new chip's strong strength can also bring Apple a lot of consumer market, for Apple to send a lot of economic benefits, for Apple's future development and progress is also very helpful.
Finally, the unveiling of Apple's new processor means that Apple has further shed its dependence on Intel, and as we all know, Apple's Mac and personal computer products have always relied on Intel's X86 processor for the past few decades. Such a strong dependence greatly weakens the independence of Apple's development and greatly enhances the risk of Apple being "stuck in the neck".
Nowadays, Apple independently developed a new M1 processor, then, with the official landing of this processor, Apple naturally does not have to worry about being "stuck neck" in the future.
Apple's new M1 processor debut, it can really be described as a few joys and a few sorrows. Intel is not very willing to see such a situation, after all, this will make Apple, a big customer, and its own gradually drift away. But now that everything is a foregone conclusion, what impact will it have on Intel?
Apple unveils a brand new processor, Intel is in trouble!
Apple's appearance of this new processor today will undoubtedly greatly weaken Intel's market influence and market position, although, in terms of processors, on February 25, Intel said that it is developing a new CPU product line and is accelerating the development of more advanced notebook CPUs, in order to develop a chip beyond Apple M1 in late 2023 or early 2024.
However, there is still a year to go before the target time of Intel, this time is also very long, in such a long time, Apple will continue to break through more advanced chips, no one can say for sure, after all, Apple's scientific research strength is so strong, and now the chip research and development will soon be out of the top chip such as M1.
Apple's achievements, in the CPU field, Intel and Apple are better or worse, which is also needless to say. Therefore, Apple's appearance of this new processor today will undoubtedly greatly affect Intel's market influence and market position.
In addition, according to the test data on January 27, Intel's strongest chip, Alder Lake core i9, is only slightly better than Apple's M1 chip in the running score test, but in terms of power consumption, heat generation, etc., this intel's so-called strongest chip has failed Apple.
The reason for this data is mainly to show that Apple's M1 chip is actually not inferior to Intel's related chips. Apple is undoubtedly also likely to make Intel lose a lot of consumer market and reduce a lot of economic benefits.
Today, Apple has once again achieved independence on processor chips, and according to relevant news, on March 9, a few minutes after Apple's "high-energy delivery" conference on the same day, the last batch of Intel chip versions of Apple iMacs were removed from the Apple Online Store.
This means that the breakup between Apple and Intel is more thorough, and Qualcomm CEO Anmon said that he wanted to win back Apple's orders, and now everything seems to be about to be empty. At a time when Apple and themselves are drifting apart, the loss of Apple's big customer has no small impact on Intel. So, what will Intel do in the future to minimize the "Apple sequelae"?
As we drift away, where does Intel go?
In the days to come, Intel should step up its search for the next market to replace the void left by Apple's departure. In addition, Intel also needs to increase its own scientific research investment, as far as possible in the CPU field, in the field of processors, to develop more advanced, more superior performance products, in order to deal with the threat of Apple's self-developed chips.
Of course, in fact, Intel does not have to worry too much, after all, Intel's business is not only a processor, in the production and sales of smart electronic products, in the semiconductor foundry production, Intel is also involved, basically an all-round company, therefore, presumably the loss of Apple market on Intel's impact and impact should not be too large.
summary
Apple's new processor M1 debut, the appearance of this processor, means that Apple further got rid of the dependence on Intel, the cooperation between the two sides, the relationship between the two sides, will undoubtedly gradually drift apart. Will Apple become a strong competitor to Intel in the future? Whether Intel can cope with the rise of Apple, all of this, I am afraid it will be left to time to answer.
