It looks like Apple’s claims about the performance improvements made with the M1 Pro and M1 Max chipsets are coming to fruition. Early MacBook Pro 2021 benchmarks have appeared online, showcasing up to a 60 percent performance gain when comparing the original M1 chip to the M1 Max.
The new benchmarks, as reported by MacRumors, show the MacBook Pro 2021 running an M1 Max chip can obtain a single-core score of 1,749 in Geekbench 5. This is only nominally better than the 1,705 single-core scores of the late 2020 13-inch MacBook Pro running the original M1 processor. The biggest difference between the two benchmarks, however, comes with the multi-core score. The original M1 MacBook Pro scored 7,382 for its multi-core score, however, the new benchmarks show a multi-core score of 11,542 with the MacBook Pro 2021 running an M1 Max.
