Hopefully an M2 is really an M2 and not a "M1X"

Means using real new improved technology such as ARM v9 and LPDDR5 on TSMC 5P and not just same technology as M1 [ARM V8.x + LPDDR4x] and more cores (12 or 16 vs 8). I also would love to see an AV1 hardware coder.

If they bring ARM v9 + 32 GB LPDDR5 + AV1 + SVE2 + more GPU cores + 4x TB4 it would be a perfect CPU and even I would not hesitate to buy it - especially in combination with a MiniLED.

Quoteplus possibly more than 16 GB of RAM included in the package

Make it so and there might be an M1 product worth buying...

Reports claim that the M1 successor has already entered mass production at TSMC on the N5P nodes and shipments are to be expected some time in July. The new "M2" processors could first be introduced with the 14-inch / 16-inch redesigned MacBook Pro models and 27-inch iMacs launching this fall.
