What a week for the Mac!
We got our first look at Apple’s mind-blowing new M1 processor, which powers a trio of new machines: MacBook Air, Mac mini and MacBook Pro. It was a risky move switching Macs off Intel chips, but by the look of the first benchmarks, Apple pulled it off.
And then we got macOS Big Sur, which brings the biggest Mac overhaul in years.
Read all about it in this week’s issue of Cult of Mac Magazine. It’s free to download, and it will look great on a gigantic new iPhone 12 Pro Max. (If you want to read on a Mac, check out the links below.)
P.S. If you just got your iPhone 12 mini or Pro Max, we’ve got updated guides to walk you through the optimal setup.
