Overview
- Preorders are open today, with deliveries starting October 22, and entry prices set at €1,099 for iPad Pro, €1,799 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, and €3,699 for Vision Pro.
- Built on TSMC’s N3P process, the M5 pairs a 10‑core CPU with a 10‑core GPU and about 153 GB/s memory bandwidth, with Apple claiming up to 3.5× faster AI performance and 1.6× higher graphics in select workloads versus M4.
- The 14‑inch MacBook Pro moves to the base M5, keeps the existing chassis and ports, starts €100 lower than last year, and drops the in‑box power adapter.
- The new iPad Pro adds Apple’s C1X modem and N1 wireless chip for Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 and faster 5G, offers a nine‑ or ten‑core CPU configuration depending on storage tier, and raises baseline RAM to 12 GB.
- Vision Pro adopts the M5 for higher frame rates up to 120 Hz, roughly 10% more rendered pixels, a battery life target around three hours, and a new Dual Band head strap at a reduced €3,699 starting price.
