All Apple Silicon SoC chips comparison in a chart

I am looking for details, statistical analysis, brief report, detailed report, computation report and other comparison reports along with the price of MacBook Pro 14'' for those configurations between all the existing Apple Silicon SoC Chips.

Apple has released 13" MacBook Pros with M1 and M2 chips. They have released 14" MacBook Pros with M3 chips, and with {M1/M2/M3} {Pro/Max} chips.


The 14" models have mini-LED backlit screens, HDMI ports, SDXC memory card slots, and MagSafe 3 ports that the 13" models lack.


The models with Pro and Max chips are more capable in several respects, including multi-core CPU performance, GPU performance, maximum RAM capacity, the number of USB-C (Thunderbolt) expansion ports, and the ability to drive two or more external displays. with the lid open.


You can find comparison tools and Technical Specifications on the Apple site. E.g.,

https://www.apple.com/mac/compare/?modelList=MacBook-Pro-14-M3,MacBook-Pro-14-M3x,MacBook-Pro-16-M3

Note that in the comparison chart, some of the sections have subheadings. E.g., the Compute section has subheadings for the M3 Pro chip and M3 Max chip. The Memory section notes when a particular choice is only available for a certain SoC (e..g.. "48 GB (M3 Max with 16-core CPU)").


In the Technical Specifications, you'll find greater detail about things like Display Support.

If you want to build a comprehensive chart comparing all of the Apple Silicon processors for every Apple Silicon Mac in multiple respects, you are going to have to do some of your own legwork.


This graphic that you posted looks like it is from the "Compare Mac models" page for

  • The MacBook Pro 14-in. (M3)
  • The MacBook Pro 14-in. (M3 Pro or M3 Max)
  • The MacBook Pro 16-in. (M3 Pro or M3 Max)

I posted a link to that comparison because I thought it would be a useful one if you were comparing SoC choices within the context of a 14" MacBook Pro purchase.

That page, with that selection, gives you an overview of the current MacBook Pro line (all M3-family machines), including an overview of some of the differences between the chips. You don't see any M2 Ultra processors in this particular three-way comparison because Mac notebooks don't use Ultra chips. The M2 Ultra (a couple of Max chips joined back-to-back) is only found in high-end desktop Macs that have electrical power and cooling suitable for supporting it.


You may need to bring up Technical Specifications and custom-ordering pages for individual machines, and/or read Internet articles to determine the differences between available M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max variants in more detail.
